Clipping a 3 y.o.

Question
Hi.  I purchased a 2 y.o. Morgan gelding in May.  When we tried to clip him, he stood up on his hind legs and tried to attack us.  He absolutely HATES the clipper.  I have even tried to cut his whiskers with an EMT's scissors (with the blunt ends), but he retreats to the back of his stall and won't let me do it.  For some reason, this causes him extreme stress.  However, you can do ANYTHING else at all with him.  He's good for the vet, the farrier, putting a blanket over his head, he walks, trots, and canters with a rider with a VERY good head.  He's really good natured otherwise.  What should I do?  I don't feel experienced enough to know when he might "explode" and hurt me while trying to clip him.  

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Answer
Lori,
 Honestly I don't know how to help you with this question.  Contact Lyn Kamer, on this same site, she will be the perfect person to get advice from on this subject.  She is actually my mentor.

I hope this helps, please let me know if I can help with anything else.
