Not many like this man anymore. Legendary.
Such a clique thing to say think for yourself bub
@@Mofoshow a "clique"? Your mother probably drank when she was pregnant.
@@Mofoshowjackass, she was definitely drunk.
@@bobbyblair6862😂
@@Mofoshowso what brilliant insight would you like to offer? Let me guess. Nothing. Tons of shit to talk and nothing to offer. But I'm sure you feel like a big man. Good for you. You'll still leave this world all alone with nobody around. Just give it time. And then you will be a cliche. The ultimate irony.
Gotta appreciate the the “yes sir” from the host at the end
Yea I love this sm as a young person I feel it’s very respectful
Should be used all the time . Have respect, show respect, get respect.
@@Walkeranz"should be used all the time" but by the rest of the comment it says you believe in the "treat others how you wish to be treated". Meaning you shouldn't say it "should be used all the time" sure it's nice but if someone doesn't, oh well
We love Dale Brisby❤️
That's Mr. Dale Brisby! He's a legend in his own time already ❤😎🤠
Love hearing these type of fellas tell stories.
Harley White was my Mothers Dad. He told me stories about broncs and cattle to the end of his life. He was a member of the last generation of hillbilly’s who supported a large family during the Great Depression. Many of his stories, I’m sure, were embellished a little. But I worshipped the ground he walked on. He told me of working on 101 Ranch. The Kansas City Stock Yards. Bumming rides on freight trains and thumbing rides across country. He and his family picked fruit to survive the depression. He drove a one ton pickup. His wife and six kids lived in the horse rack on the back, and he pulled a one horse trailer behind. Times were tough. A wide spot along Route 66 was home many times. I loved these people more than I could ever put into words. Mules and mule teams were his choice in life. He loved them to the very end. “Granddad, I’ll see you when I cross that river. I hope you’ll meet me there with gaited mules, ready to go!”
You write very well
Thankful to have L🎉IVED some of this..!!!!🤠
My G'Parents traveled this countryside in a wagon with their RACEHORSES that pulled it ...
Thank You for sharing that story. Best Wishes.
Mothers dad. Your grandfather?
Mr. Boots O’Neal. Hes knocked more dirt out of his hat than most hands have ridden over.
MR. "BOOTS" O'NEAL,
A REAL COWBOY & LEGEND 🐴
I love listening to stories like this, absorb as much wisdom as you can because this man is a dying breed
I went to rehab at 20 for opiate addiction, was in with a hard old cowboy like this who had drank hard all his life and decided he didn’t wanna die from alcohol. He became one of my best friends in there and we got through it together. Shoutout to Ole Hollis
Legends indeed .. my great uncle was one of this man's kind . Me a city kid , spent summers on his ranch in central calif. He was a texas cowboy . Hard man , smart in the way of the world. Few men remain in this day with their sort of structure. 😔
This interview is literally impossible to turn away from. Guys voice alone brings me back to listening to grandpa tell stories
Fascinating old gent. His wisest words were "We didn't know then what we know now about handling these horses."
This needs to be the top comment
Funny thing about life. You need to know what needs evolving and when to say, there's a reason it's done the way it's done.
The sad part is, they could have. Proper training techniques have had treatises written about the subject for over two thousand years. Xenophon was writing about the correct care and conditioning of horses 360 years before Christ was born, yet our treatment and training of them regressed as though we were nothing more than rabid monkeys assaulting and riding dogs.
@@Pro3110 People don't even know The Warriors is really Anabasis. You want a bunch of people living in Comanche territory who don't know what they're doing but for the grace of the Vaquero to know ancient literature?
Boots Oniel! This is a greAt interview by Dale Brisby on Rodeo Time podcast.
BO is a legend and his stories are incredible!
I hunt up in the Palo Duro canyon. Nothing makes me feel more cowboy than being out there.
Holy crap am I going to miss men like this in the future.
That's a true COWBOY!!! Respect to you sir
Hardcore old school work
This is how my Dad broke horses. No ground work, just rope them and saddle up. His last horse was a red stud that was 4 years old and had never been touched and boy could that stud buck!! Big Red (the stud) had quite the personality. He recognized each member of the family right down to the grandkids. Dad passed away at the age of 81. I was so glad the stud out lived him. I had to have the stud put down at age 29. I miss both of them terribly.
Old school cowboy shit!! This man speaks just like all the other old cowboys In canyon and Amarillo it makes me feel like I’m home! Makes me want to call my grandma in Quana ❤️
Call your Grandma ❤
Some real cowboy shit
Respect to you sir 🫡
I remember listening to my grandpa whp outfitted on every major ranch in Texas tell me stories like these
This cowboy cast a long shadow. Now days FEW are worthy of carrying his saddle, or standing before him or beside him This man is THE REAL DEAL. Thank you God for keeping him in the shadow of your wing. Humbly thanks. … Yes.Sir!!!!!
Old school was Hard school. Real men
A rare breed getting rarer every day. H lived a lif most of us wish we were man enough to live
And all y'all Internet cowboys are like how crucial. Real men real cowboys.
Those old timers were something else. He needs to write a book. Be a best seller.....
The world is really going to miss this generation of men
This man looks great for his age!
This man my friend's is a true cowboy.
When the last of these ole men fade out we'll never know men like this ever again.
Love listening to these old cowboys. They have a wealth of knowledge and experience..... and no way will they ever be replaced
Nor should they be. This man seems like a genuinely friendly type of man. His honest reflection of the past is probably why he acknowledges that the old way of breaking horses was thoroughly lacking in information and understanding. Any savage animal can control another animal through brute force, but it takes a superior intelligence to teach another animal and develop a working relationship with it. I'm glad he's stayed around long enough to see the better way of training and the successes that come from it, because I'm sure he's thought, "There's GOT to be a better way" many, many times back in those brutal days.
Grew up around old time Texans like this.
They’re a dying breed and it makes me very sad
Yeah.... I wouldn't let my grandfather get close to my ponies after I watched him saddle one. This guy had actually rode with the 7th Calvary chasing Pancho Via around back in the day. He looked at horses differently.
I spent a lot of my early life riding my horse on and in the prairie dog fork of the red river just west of Palo Duro Canyon.
Thanks for the memories
I know that country, and it is no joke. A working Cowboy in and around Palo Duro Canyon during that time was paying attention to slingshot weather, to predators, venomous snakes and arachnids, to horses that would cripple you.
To say simply, "What a man" would be a disservice. These men gave their hearts and minds over to the service and trust in the Source of us all.
I helped my grandpa shoe a horse once when i was a kid. It kept trying to kick him so he walked up and punched it right in the mouth 😂. Then he got the lip twist out which was a 2×4 about a foot long. It had a hole drilled in both ends and a rope looped through each hole. He took the middle part of the rope and stuck the horses lip in the rope and twisted it tight. That horse stood perfectly still for rest of the time it took him to finish shoeing it(about 30 minutes or so).😂 Sometimes force is the only way to get an unruly horse to behave. He had the most easy going trail horses around. You damn near couldn't make one run. They'd just follow the wagon or horse in front of it.
That 'lip twist' is called a twitch... it'll get a horses attention real quick.
I could hear him talk forever ❤
Now that's a real cowboy what an incredible story you don't hear those anymore God bless you sir
He remembered the biting. It's what he mentioned first. Not kickin not buckin. Biting. Ouch!
I need to meet this guy. He worked with my great grandfather
I could listen to this man tell stories for days
We all could
This is great listening to his stories. I could listen ask day.
Boots O’Neal is one of the punchyest people I know
A legend. And he knows horsemanship has evolved. Sadly, many people act and ride like it hasn’t.
Legend
I COULD LISTEN TO BOOT'S ALL DAY! I COMMEND YOU DALE ON YOUR RESPECT YOU SHOWED FOR HIM BY SAYING "YES SIR" YOU'RE A LEGEND IN YOUR OWN TIME DALE!(CH)😁❤️😎❤️💯🤠
I don't believe he's forgotten very much, he still knows it
He’s a national treasure, we should be so lucky to one day shake a man’s hand like this.
Back when a horse was only a tool. You don't abuse your tools but you don't shy away from hurting and potentially breaking your tools. Different time Different view.
Good time. Right view. They weren’t mistreating animals. They were breaking wild, half-ton heaps of muscle. From a death machine to man’s counterpart.
This is still more or less how it’s done. The only thing that’s changed is people and it’s not for the better.
@furdterguson3434 no argument here. A soft society is a weak society. I've read accounts from veterans on how they had to retrain how they view dogs so they could comfortably use them in combat. In the end they're a smart tool. All my dogs although they are loved, know they exist in this home to do a specific job. They are to fight and potentially die to protect my children. Just as my grandfather trained our dogs when I was young. And when I was attacked by hogs I watched that training work. It cost one "jamie" her life. But she didn't seem sad, she seemed happy as she laid there next to two dead hogs as the injured squealed and ran from her brothers. Broke my heart but enforced a valuable lesson. I but heads with my buddy who's a veterinarian tech. He wipes his dogs ass because it nervous shits If he talks normal while walking. He's broken this dog. It runs from squirrels. And he says I view them too harshly. My half a dozen pitbulls that have been perfectly behaved even the one that was deaf.
@furdterguson3434 true. Learned the hard way that animals are animals when I had an older dog get into a dominance fight with a bigger younger dog and was killed in the process. I wasn't home. Never would have happened if I was. That being said they didn't comprehend what had happened truly. I cried for days like a baby over it. Literal days. More sad then I have honestly ever been. They knew I was sad but not why. But I learned that animals didn't eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They just do. They have a much simpler view of the world. We can live and work together but they will never be like us, only a reflection of us..
for the horses its much better @@furdterguson3434
You can bet that old man's tougher than a boot tip your hat to that man if you see him on the street
Getting paid 1.50 a day probably
When the boys were tougher than the men we have now.
God Bless You Sir. True Cowboy 🤠.
What does he know now that he didn’t know then? I have a horse that loves me. I’m always looking for information.
Quite the job ,horses can bite like a sob lol
My family cut horses in paladura canyon and took them back to their ranch in aspermont
I thought I was doing something Halter Breaking my Daughter’s 4-H steers!!!!😮
My relatives know this guy and his people.
The real story is: they stole horses from nearby native ranchers because native ranchers did not brand their horses. The native ranchers tried to claim their horses back but were turned away by rifles.
Once the horses were branded, the US Gov had these people's backs. Happened all the time.
This still happens all the time, if you look into the wild horse relocation program.
Wait what!!! 🤔 isn’t this how everyone breaks their horses??? I mean I’m only 40 and that’s how we’ve always broke our horses 😂😂 it’s matter fact, I can still hear my grandpa telling me to this day “ boy just halter him and hold on “ 😂😂😂😂
Never ignore or discount the stories of the old guys that ran before you. Maybe you can't find value in their knowledge. Maybe the shortcoming is yours, and not theirs.
That's exactly what my grandfather did on ranch in Jordan Valley ,Oregon. His pay was 25 bucks a month.
Been a while for me, but my dad and I would bolo yearling mustangs. Bring them back, and as Native Americans, I wouldn't say we broke them. But we did come to an understanding. Best horse I ever had was a mustang I caught, earned her trust, and I was the only one who ever sat on her back. God I miss that horse. Rip Dolly, after you I never rode another horse again.
Thanks for sharing Your story. My Mother's last horse was named Dolly. Best Wishes.
should’ve never took advantages of the natives. the comanches could’ve taught a few things
Hats off to you cowboy
PaloDuro Canyon is a beautiful part of Texas.
If you enjoy stories like this, you will enjoy A Vaquero of the Brush Country.
Now everybody writes books but this is a diamond in the rough, a real time capsule.
My dad was born in 1923. His mother BROKE Missouri mules. His dad told the boys if you cant whip your mother you dont deserve the family name. The only pronouns used back then were to start a fight with on saturday night.
You know his handshake hurts
Sounds like my father talking about his time in the 40's & 50's being a Buckeroo. Million acre Ranches in Oregon, Nevada, California etc... trailing cows to train yards, each man running a string of 10 or so horses, not even touching a horse until they were 5 years old then break em etc... can't imagine a time like that. Mistbof been something compared to todays Gasoline Cowboys.
Oh my word! I love hearing stories from the past generations. Listening to this man brings to mind some of the articles I would read in the "Cowboy" magazines at my Meme & Papa's ❤🤠
Crazy my grandpa went to fight the Chinese in 53
That's a man
Jesus, it's like my dad walked in the room. They never broke a horse until they were 5 year old. North of Cheyenne in the 20s-30s.
This guy is the real McCoy. Now a days we got a bunch of wanna be cowboys. Driving 4 wheelers own a few cattle while wearing some boots & hat pretending 😂
My great grandpa had stories like this. The family still runs cattle off the the ranch but it’s not even close to what it was.
Brought tears pf joy that this ole gal knew men of this caliber 🎉
I’ve broken a few horses the “modern” way but in the old timers defense as many horses as it sounds like they were breaking all at once it would have been difficult to have done it the modern way.
I love that he feels there is now maybe a better way than what he was taught. He did a magnificent job with the skills he had. If he had another 50 years, he could do even better with the progress he sees today. Tough old cowboy, and humble. We need those kind of men today.
Rumor has it this guy has a grizzly bear rug in his living room but the problem is it's not dead it's just afraid to move 😂
Thank god we know better now. Training always evolves and now we know how the brain of a horse works and how detrimental this method actually was, unfortunately there are many who still do this.
Like he said that is what they were taught. We didn't know what we know now. So Bronco riding is cruel and abuse. They broke the horses like that, but did not kick the crap out of them at the same time. They broke the horses to aid in human advancement and help. Not for entertainment.
I Love this Guy God Bless you Sir
I love your true grit and how wild hourse were tamed! I had a similar hourse he was a stallion and he run on 82 acres he should have had a hurd of fillies he would jump the fence and go courting with the ladies on our cousins farm ! we had to break him every week to ride him ! he would bit you ! naa ! bronk just to lunge him in high grass around for hours with the saddle on him ! give him a cut apple and run him some more tell my sister got on him I held the lead line and had a whip for protection! we were kids and had a time !
I met this man at the 6666 one time, shook his hand and said to him “only shit sir you are famous”, he laughed and said “yeah I guess so, my daughter showed me on the you tube not too long ago”. Such a great man. Glad to see him again.
I respect that je admits that there are better methods now.
My uncle did it this way , and taught me to do that, as I got older I started them easier and smarter , but knew some tricks that helped out at times.
This dude looks n sounds like my grandad.
Shoot, you imagine jumping on a four yr that never been touched. That is cowboying, right there.
The toughness of those guys back in the day was unreal.
Sir!!
Those old school dudes are some rough cobs buddy,believe it 💯
A walking western history book!! Love it!
'51, '52 and '53
Them dudes were tougher than woodpecker lips
Could listen all day. Need to hear their stories more.
That taught lesson is still the same with a few of us.
Take the buck out then train. It's what I've always done and I'm proud to be apart of that life.
Nothing but RESPECT, sir.
Dudes the real deal….
The way that leg was tied up that's the way I was taught
in another fourty years alot of us will tell stories about our past and it’ll be just like this guy’s. young people will think we had wild lives
I don’t know wtf he’s saying…
But by God, I like it!
