Sounds like something that should be on an infomercial at 3am.

Hmmm, a breeder would let a complete stranger get on a yearling and ride, then offer $100.00. A yearling????? A stranger??? You have never tried this method before? How did you convince this breeder that it was safe and you could be trusted? What kind of credentials did you show him?

The breeder thought I was joking until I pulled a saddle and bridle out of my car. He said "we don't have a lunge or any breaking facilities" I said that's why I choose you..

After explaining why and what I wanted to do he agreed and took me to a yearling standing in a 2-3 acre paddock. I took my gear and went to the middle of the paddock and the horse came over to investigate.

I put my bridle on and applied the "Half-tap" get to take the edge of the horse to get the rest of the gear on with as little hassle as possible...

...After a few laps each-way, I got took the horse back to the middle of the paddock, jumped off and took the gear off and went back to the fence where the breeder was waiting..

He pulled out a 10,000yen ($100) note and tried to give it to me, of corse I didn't take the money, (1) it was an un-pronounced visit which wasn't about money, (2) to me trying this technique on an un-broken horse to me was worth way, way more then $100...

Survey said...."ENNNH!"
Im all for creative techniques, but this just isnt plausible. And if they dont know Unannounced from unpronounced, I really dont think they know what theyre talking about.

The link to the device she is probably talking about is here...
