Green Living Facts Q&A: how do you break a green broke horse that bucks when you get on it?

Question by Joni: how do you break a green broke horse that bucks when you get on it?
I have a 5 yr old green broke Quarter horse paint who has been ridden for the past year, but not every single day. When you get on his back and try to get him to walk forward or lope, he goes in to a buck any time you ride. I have had the vet tell me he is healthy and has no problems. What should I do?

does he lounge well? hows his ground manners? so here is what i personally do and recommend. to solve a bucking horse: take a back cinch make it unbearable tight. then lounge him in all gaits until he stops bucking. repeat this every day for 7 days and i’m sure he wont buck any more. make sure the back cinch is super tight like it would be on a bucking bronc. (key that’s why bucking broncs buck)
i would really work on his ground manners or free or cheaply lease him to 4h kids that need project horses, they will work on that for you. make sure you tell them all his problems. this is the cheap way without a trainer.
