A story from one of Buck Brannaman's books: A woman had been coming to his clinics for a while and was still really struggling with the concepts of release and seeing the try... she was not really making progress.
He didn't see her for a while -- then she showed up at a clinic and was seeing try, releasing at the right time -- and when Buck commented she said "I have been doing clicker training, hasn't it worked well on my horse?" Buck was too polite to say that in fact it had worked well on the human... His thought was that clicker training helped HER focuson the TRY rather than the task, and helped HER mark the release moment. ______________________________ Judy http://icehorses.net http://clickryder.com
