Bob Logan was raised as a cowboy from an early age. His dad was a cowboy also. Bob has been on the back a horse as early as he can remember. At six years of age he was paid to catch runaway horses in the hay fields with his uncle Franklin Brown.

At nine years of age he worked summers as a ranch hand rounding up cattle. From then on Bob was destined to be a horseman. His dad from time to time explained how a horse’s mind works. Bob owes a lot to his dad and his uncle Franklin for the understanding and thinking of the horse.

As Bob grew up he stayed with the horses, working on one of the top horse ranches in California while going to high school, and college. Bob put on the first high school rodeo in California, while being a high school student. While in high school Bob was able to work for one of the great working cowhorse trainers Bobby Ingersoll and later was able to ride with many great trainers in all fields of training, from English to the Western world.

Bob has spent his life training and showing and training all kinds of horses from Jumpers to Reiner’s, to Cutting horses as well as halter and pleasure horses. While working with English and Western horses he says he is grateful for the knowledge he has learned from both fields. Bob said he has always loved this saying as he got older. “Before I
became old and wise….. I first had to become young and stupid.”

Bob said he does not think he was young and stupid, he just did stupid things because he did not know better. Until you become wise that there is a better way your mind is not open that things could be better. He has studied the art of horse training for many years and wants to give back to the world what he has learned, so that people do not have to reinvent the art of training horses as it is now.

One thing Bob knows is that he is still learning new and better ways to train horses and that he has not learned it all. The one thing he has learned is that some things, will not work in training the horse. So don’t waste time learning how to frustrate your horse, copy the success of others, great trainers that are willing to share their secrets.
