In this episode, I'm excited to discuss one of my favorite subjects that is so applicable to all riders of any breed and discipline. We need to be specific in developing our strategy to address "trouble" before that actual situation arises!

**This episode is broken up into 2 parts...this is part 2**
We got acquainted with Jeremiah when we used to import fine using gear and tack from the US into New Zealand. It was a privilege to be able to provide quality snaffle bits to my students and others. I had the privilege of catching up with Jeremiah late last year and we got so carried away with the conversation we had to edit the interview into 2 parts!
About Jeremiah Watt:
Jeremiah is a renowned cowboy artisan, specializing in engraved bits, spurs and saddles, from Coalinga, CA, USA. A native of Ontario, Canada, Jeremiah Watt developed a love early on for the horses, the gear, and the artistry involved with the saddlemaking trade. After learning saddlemaking in 1976 at a school in Amarillo, Texas, Watt and his wife started their own saddle and tack manufacturing business. He began to teach himself the art of engraving by building silver saddle trim and making his own handmade bits and spurs. Watt has been teaching Western engraving, along with the art of saddle making, for almost two decades.

Very excited to dig a little deeper into horsemanship and riding theory. Do you ever stop for a moment and wonder just what, exactly, you're supposed to be working on? Many of us may know "what" we'd like to do with our horses, but what does that boil down to in basic fundamentals? Find out in this series, continuing on today with the idea of "Speed"!

This episode is part 2 of our conversation because it ended up so long! It is always a pleasure to visit with Jeff Sanders, whom I count as one of my mentors. We share a lot of the same interests, particularly that of the history and tradition of the California Vaquero Bridle Horse. Enjoy!
About Jeff Sanders:
Jeff was born in Merced California and raised on the Central Coast, right in the heart of Vaquero country. Jeff is a 6th generation Californian. He is one of very few teaching the California Vaquero style of horsemanship
who was raised in the traditions. He travels around the world teaching horsemanship and preserving the traditions of old Spanish California.
