With Cory's love and passion for the horse he wanted and needed more knowledge. He knew he wanted more than riding the buck out of the horse. Cory started that search by watching different clinicians on RFD. Using the natural horsemanship methods he learned from TV Cory saw that change he was looking for in his horses.
