you got the right idea Trinity. pressure when he doesnt want to be with you. then release pressure when her comes to you. so he knows the place of rest is best with you. Steve Young Horsemanship and Buck Brannaman would be proud
That look they give you when they want to bend in and stop lunging lol. " Can you just get on already? Circles are too much work" 😄 My mare still gets a circle or two before each ride just to make sure she doesn't want to get anything stupid out of the way before I pile on. Glad you are feeling better. Glad Calibar is back to work❤🩹
I really enjoyed they your working with this horse. So many want to show this type of training in a round pen but what you’re doing is showing how it’s done when you don’t have that luxury and it can be done in any setting.
good lesson! he's a little stubborn, herd bound, and one-sided. In other words, young! Good, sturdy guy....looks like he doesn't miss any meals. Quick learner too.
The horsey little girl in my head is absolutely glued to this. But you do have a fair bead on how to get Calabar to understand who's boss and how to respond to that. I'll be watching as you work with him! Not that I wasn't watching before ... 😉😉😄
We had a section of peeler core in our arena (about 10-12 feet) that was left over from putting up light poles around our arena. We put a piece of heavy chain around it nearer to one end, & we attached an old heading rope to the chain. When I had a young horse sufficiently warmed up, I would step off & grab the tail end of the rope, step back onto the horse, dally up & walk off dragging the peeler core a little to the right of center, behind us. When the horse was relaxed & dragging the peeler core well, I would squeeze him up into a trot. We would drag the peeler core at a walk, at a trot, & when he was more muscled up, We would graduate into a lope for a lap or two around the arena. Never ever forget to tighten your cinch before doing this. You don't want to hurt your horse's back or get into a wreck. Our horses became so fit and could drag that peeler core for several laps in either direction. Worked wonders.
That was fun to watch! I just love horse training, when I get it right, nothing makes me feel more cowboy. When I get it wrong, well, then I learn a lesson from horses; that I need to slow down and get better.
Calibar seems more “right brained” by the looks of it. Copy & pasting for non horse people: “A horse that’s in a state of fight or flight will use his right brain more. When the right brain is dominating the horse tends to be emotional unstable (easily disturbed/stressed out easily/sensitive/nervous/angry/anxious).” He’ll get there. Once he gets some more experience and confidence. He’s licking and chewing at the end which is great to see!
From one Montana horse owner to another, I chuckled about you mentioning that left to their own choice, they head to the place they want to be. I've always joked that the horse trailer has a strong gravitational pull.
Iam 61 and use to rely on my youth and athletic ability to ride colts now Ido a lot of ground work and sacking out anyway you are doing a great work with that colt .
You truly do so well with the explaining you keep it very interesting as well as informative. Thank you very much. Makes me understand what my dad and grandfather loved so much about about this life.
I'm not a rancher or a cow guy I dont ride a horse but I love your videos I have been to Montana 2 times and love it there my wife and I sold our home in California and now we travel full time thanks for the great content.
Every time you are with a horse you are training them. You are either training them to fo right (what you want) or teaching them to do wrong (what they want to do). 🙂
Awesome training!.. whan I was a little girl..some older kids had me get on a mule I'd never met..didn't know much about horses...he ran me under a bunch of low Branches..and me thrown off...Wheeee...I needed some of your expertise !! So fun to learn from you.
Your timing with Calibar is just what we need. My wife acquired her dream horse last year. Unfortunately he was only three and barely broke. Now 4-1/2 and we’re getting better but have a ways to go. Thanks for your videos.
Wow! Thank you f[r all that information!!! When I bought my 1st horse he was 17 1/2 Hand's. I was 120 lbs. 5"4. I had to prove I could control him! Because he had a history of being a problem. One thing he was Proud Cut! I sadled him up and bridled and off we went till he had to go under a low bridge! He would not buy I was determined every time He refused I took him aside and rained him into my left foot & kicked him to go in circles! It took 3 time's! And we never had any other problems! People could Not belive how much he grew to love me and me him! I still miss him! Oh! I Never used spires on him! Never owned a pair! I could tell you stories about how gentle he was with me!!!
Actually what I like is you understand how smart horses 🐎 are, & how smart they are. I have a golden retriever & you’ve made what I’ve thought for years I’ve allowed myself just to be his pet. Might be okay with a 100 pound doggie, but not do much a horse.
Trinity your obviously doing much better with getting around with your rib...doing things with the horse ..that yes should have been done before...but always better late than never... Calibar shows his lack of training with some things...the wind and ice don't help...but your doing a good job...being able to read each horse is an art in itself..since there are no two that think identical...good to see you handling him again...stay safe and warm...looks cold out there!!
Had quite a few questions on your last video but was intimidated to ask. In this video, you’re already answering them all and I didn’t even have to embarrass myself. 😊
You are doing everything right. I have a small ranch in central nevada and I train a new horse for working cowboys once a year . I like to watch you doing what I do on a regular basis
Mr. Vandenacre, I have been following you for some time, and have enjoyed your content. I’ve been retired for a year. I had horses when I was young and decided to get one for something to keep me busy. This has been a learning experience for me and my disrespectful horse. Your videos have helped greatly. I have been contemplating adding spurs as one of my tools if absolutely needed. I’ve had trouble finding RUclips sources as to when to actually use spurs. This video spelled it out perfectly: Rein, leg, spur. THANKS! I’ve also obtained excellent advice from Dry Creek Wrangler School. Keep up the great work.
On the topic of respect. Horses don't understand the concept of respect because they don't have the part of the brain that can process abstract ideas. They feel safe or they don't. They understand leadership. What most folks think is respect is a horse feeling safe with the person as a leader. This from highly respected neuro scientist Dr. Stephen Peters.
Good job. Been there done that. Looks like a pretty good mount when you get him straightened out new sub here and enjoying your videos. Havagudun horseman.
I really like this horse, and he learns fast , he will be a great horse with some maturity on him, thanks for sharing some of your methods, really enjoyed watching you work him.
Love this series!!! Having watched my cousins train cutting horses, realize how long it takes. As I lived in Billings for many years, I often recognize some of the areas where you film. I really miss Montana and so much of my family still lives there!
Pickup trucks and quad runners always make for a nice soft landing to cushion the blow. I finally found a good use for the "trainers" flag. Haven't seen anyone log their horse from the ground before. Other than your skill and the grace of God what was keeping him from running off when logging the tire? Nice job.
I like the fact you use rope halters. For some reason, so many people still want to use flat halters. More people need to get back to the natural horseman ship style of training. This comment is only directed at those who may not be familiar with horses, but training really never stops. Sure, I’ve seen those rare horses who will do everything you ask of them, and after you haven’t ridden him/her in a month or more, they are still just as easy to deal with. But at least in my experience, those are rare finds.
My godfathers horse, Prince, was a great horse, he was saddle broke by a pro horse trainer, but he never took a liking to me riding him, bucked off twice, the interesting thing is once he bucked me off he stayed near me, and i don't know why he did that, anyways i don't ride horses if it aint got wheels i don't ride it lol
It's always the second thing that sets them off. This horse could really use a round pen. Don't think I would do the tire drag and restrain with a bridle. Maybe a halter?
I LIKE THIS METHOD TRINIRY! BRAVO! MAYBE USE A HALTER ON THE GROUND FIRST THEN WTIH THE BRIDLE JUST A THOUGHT- BUT I ACTUALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU DO IT! GOOD JOB!!1
it's always these little things, 15 or 20 minutes a day spent with your horse (or your dog for that matter!) that ultimately saves their lives. i have seen so many "crazy" horses and dogs in auctions or at the pound or on their way to either..... all because someone neglected to spend the time with them. i don't remember the exact quote but it's something like the biggest favor you can do for your horse is to teach him manners and respect. that will save his life and possibly someone elses in the future, no matter where he goes. and yeah i am badly paraphrasing it. but you get the point. i was nearly killed three times in my life, once when i was four years old, trampled by a territorial mare, at age 12 the horse we were given (who had a well known history of getting rid of riders in devious ways) bolted with me while i was riding alone. he then headed right for a tree and jumped sideways at the last second, sending me right into the trunk. it's a miracle i didn't have my head smashed or neck broken.. or worse. instead all i got was a badly bruised shoulder. no one knew where i was. but he walked out to a nearby road and stood there instead of running home. a nice lady saw him and had the decency to go looking for me. i was in a bad way too! the last one was a horse i had been working on myself, a seven year old gelding. every day was like starting over with him. it didn't matter what we did.... he would look for reasons to spook. he would be fine one second with a mail box, or cattle... and the second you rode past the same object he was ready to go wild. i tried to ride him every day but then i started college and could only manage every other weekend. Big mistake. my last ride with him was pleasant until it was time to go home. cars had passed us on the way out. but on the way back he decided to bolt. that was when the headstall broke (someone took mine so i had to borrow someone elses... i didn't know it was crap!) and when it snapped he took off flying down the road.. oh yeah we were racing a truck the whole time. and the pavement was wet...and i was running out of grass on the edge.... all i could see happening was him hitting that pavement and slipping and going down in front of that truck (that ass hole didn't even try to slow down or stop, knowing i was in trouble) so i jumped off.... ouch. in between going ass over shoulders i kept wondering how those rodeo cowboys did the same damn thing in an arena night after night.... again, a miracle i didnt break my neck or get run over or worse. i believe in getting back on the horse, but not that one. wherever he came from before i got him just ruined him. and i was not a horse trainer. i did my best with what knowledge i had from library books, desensitizing like in the video, but it was obvious he needed a lot more work from a professional. i never understood why none of it ever stuck. but now i know, the one thing that was left out was joining up. i had no clue what that was at the time. i do now. i've trained a couple of horses of my own since then. and i taught my son how to train his ponies. he's done a great job. but yeah..... all those little moments.... they matter.
Who owns that herd he was in with? Are all those horses trained? Does everyone there have to train their own horse? Why were you riding him when you knew he had holes in his training? Cool video.
you got the right idea Trinity. pressure when he doesnt want to be with you. then release pressure when her comes to you. so he knows the place of rest is best with you. Steve Young Horsemanship and Buck Brannaman would be proud
That look they give you when they want to bend in and stop lunging lol. " Can you just get on already? Circles are too much work" 😄 My mare still gets a circle or two before each ride just to make sure she doesn't want to get anything stupid out of the way before I pile on. Glad you are feeling better. Glad Calibar is back to work❤🩹
I really enjoyed they your working with this horse. So many want to show this type of training in a round pen but what you’re doing is showing how it’s done when you don’t have that luxury and it can be done in any setting.
when you work with the horses, is my favorite videos
Ranching is great and interesting to learn about. Thanks
You’re welcomed
I love learning about horses 🐎 so thankyou from Australia 🥰🤗🐎
good lesson! he's a little stubborn, herd bound, and one-sided. In other words, young! Good, sturdy guy....looks like he doesn't miss any meals. Quick learner too.
Hard for horses, doggies & humans to learn when hungry
Wow lots of investment time.
Horses 🐴 are scary 😧. Thank you for your videos they make me realize all this hard work
I haven't had to deal with a green horse in a long time. The time will come when I will. This is good education.
I’ve broke many horses but watching you through the camera makes me so dizzy I almost fell over.
😂😂😂😂
The horsey little girl in my head is absolutely glued to this.
But you do have a fair bead on how to get Calabar to understand who's boss and how to respond to that.
I'll be watching as you work with him!
Not that I wasn't watching before ... 😉😉😄
Really like your patience an respect with training him, he will be a great horse for You!!!
He's coming right along Trinity. He's going to be an awesome horse when your done wth him.
We had a section of peeler core in our arena (about 10-12 feet) that was left over from putting up light poles around our arena. We put a piece of heavy chain around it nearer to one end, & we attached an old heading rope to the chain. When I had a young horse sufficiently warmed up, I would step off & grab the tail end of the rope, step back onto the horse, dally up & walk off dragging the peeler core a little to the right of center, behind us. When the horse was relaxed & dragging the peeler core well, I would squeeze him up into a trot. We would drag the peeler core at a walk, at a trot, & when he was more muscled up, We would graduate into a lope for a lap or two around the arena. Never ever forget to tighten your cinch before doing this. You don't want to hurt your horse's back or get into a wreck. Our horses became so fit and could drag that peeler core for several laps in either direction. Worked wonders.

Thanks for teaching us all the ins and outs of ranching.
Iam 61 and use to rely on my youth and athletic ability to ride colts now Ido a lot of ground work and sacking out anyway you are doing a great work with that colt .
You truly do so well with the explaining you keep it very interesting as well as informative. Thank you very much. Makes me understand what my dad and grandfather loved so much about about this life.
Always nice to learn something. Thanks.
Hell yeah need more of these horse videos! Thinking of starting my own!
Looks like he has the potential to be a real good horse. Thank you for the video.
I'm not a rancher or a cow guy I dont ride a horse but I love your videos I have been to Montana 2 times and love it there my wife and I sold our home in California and now we travel full time thanks for the great content.
Great work , Trinity. Love Calibar! It makes me miss my horse , Chance, even more.
Every time you are with a horse you are training them. You are either training them to fo right (what you want) or teaching them to do wrong (what they want to do). 🙂
Coolabar appeared more attentive. The time spent on groundwork will make him more comfortable working the ranch.
Great job and you both did great.
Awesome training!.. whan I was a little girl..some older kids had me get on a mule I'd never met..didn't know much about horses...he ran me under a bunch of low Branches..and me thrown off...Wheeee...I needed some of your expertise !! So fun to learn from you.
Thank you for the videos. They are always interesting.
Always good to see these informational videos Trinity.
Thanks for sharing your training for Calibar. I've always thought a treat after work was a good thing.
Have a great day.
Your timing with Calibar is just what we need. My wife acquired her dream horse last year. Unfortunately he was only three and barely broke. Now 4-1/2 and we’re getting better but have a ways to go. Thanks for your videos.
Wow! Thank you f[r all that information!!!

Thanks Trinity. Good job Calabar.
So interesting. Calibar is your fav I think.
Great video.
Always a little concerning getting on with a injury that is not completely healed.
Trinity your obviously doing much better with getting around with your rib...doing things with the horse ..that yes should have been done before...but always better late than never... Calibar shows his lack of training with some things...the wind and ice don't help...but your doing a good job...being able to read each horse is an art in itself..since there are no two that think identical...good to see you handling him again...stay safe and warm...looks cold out there!!
15:00 different side-different horse 😊
Good stuff Trinity, a lot of folks have no idea what it takes to get a horse to comfortable place. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see what's next.
Had quite a few questions on your last video but was intimidated to ask.
In this video, you’re already answering them all and I didn’t even have to embarrass myself. 😊
Fantastic lick and chew at the end of the session. Nicely done.
“It’s not a big deal once u give in”
I’m gonna tell this to my man next time we need to go grocery shopping 😂
You are doing everything right. I have a small ranch in central nevada and I train a new horse for working cowboys once a year . I like to watch you doing what I do on a regular basis
Great video please do more training videos I loved it Is showed me exactly what I needed to know my horse likes to run away from me in the pen
Very interesting, thank you for sharing 😁

Where do you get your vests? I like them
Training day: too be continued 🐴 patience , trust !!
Take care
Good job. Been there done that. Looks like a pretty good mount when you get him straightened out new sub here and enjoying your videos. Havagudun horseman.
addictively interesting. thanks
I really like this horse, and he learns fast , he will be a great horse with some maturity on him, thanks for sharing some of your methods, really enjoyed watching you work him.
Great. Training video , not like training a dog…
A Great video with the beautiful mountains in the
.background
Love this series!!! Having watched my cousins train cutting horses, realize how long it takes. As I lived in Billings for many years, I often recognize some of the areas where you film. I really miss Montana and so much of my family still lives there!
Such a cool name for a horse.
Really cool.. the next time I am around a horse I will look it differently.
Yeah Calibar, love the beautiful horse…
Many thanks for explaining the intrinsic training needed for horses. I was wondering if he was trained to the whipping sound when corralling cattle?
Hey Trinity I’m glad you doin better…
Pickup trucks and quad runners always make for a nice soft landing to cushion the blow. I finally found a good use for the "trainers" flag. Haven't seen anyone log their horse from the ground before. Other than your skill and the grace of God what was keeping him from running off when logging the tire? Nice job.
Very interesting ! Thanks
You must be extremely observant - making sure to back Calibar up when he stepped in the rope circle. It's the little details that trip us up the most.
Time and miles makes a good one even better,for sure.
You have to work with all horses a little bit like that or do some of them automatically get it?
Good job
Great info. I'm going to try the dragging , exactly what my horse needs. Surely I can if you can do all that while holding the phone lol.
he didn't freak out as much as I expected.
I believe you ran a horse stable growing up. who taught you how to train horses how do you know all this and please keep making these videos
I like the fact you use rope halters. For some reason, so many people still want to use flat halters. More people need to get back to the natural horseman ship style of training.

But at least in my experience, those are rare finds.
we went glue on shoes, all nailless all the time, we put studs in the shoes for winter, no slip grip and good for rocks as well .
My godfathers horse, Prince, was a great horse, he was saddle broke by a pro horse trainer, but he never took a liking to me riding him, bucked off twice, the interesting thing is once he bucked me off he stayed near me, and i don't know why he did that, anyways i don't ride horses if it aint got wheels i don't ride it lol
What kind of action cam do you have and can you give an advice how to use it for videos like this?
How do you decide what bit to use and What are the differences?
... i love the music near the end...
Fascinating!
It's always the second thing that sets them off. This horse could really use a round pen. Don't think I would do the tire drag and restrain with a bridle. Maybe a halter?
I LIKE THIS METHOD TRINIRY! BRAVO! MAYBE USE A HALTER ON THE GROUND FIRST THEN WTIH THE BRIDLE JUST A THOUGHT- BUT I ACTUALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU DO IT! GOOD JOB!!1
Good stuff!!
A good friend of mine once told me that horses are harder to ride than a bi-cykel and more expensive than a floozy ,gimme a mule anyday :)
My dad said they would take a donkey and tie it to a horse that needed to be broken.
After about 5 days that horse would be broken.😆
Btw. Love your videos
WHOA that Old GMC!
“I LIKE THAT HORSE,I HAVE A HORSE NAME COFFE”!!! OH,OH IS COOL TO HAVE THAT COWBOY CAT.GOD VIDEO.2-12-2023
go Calibar!!!!!
👍
Train him like Trigger so he can count and will come when you whistle.. 🐴

Horses, like humans, do well what they do often.
What boots are you wearing?
I saw Ohio trainwreck smoke plume saw it was NW are you in its path? Big big plume. Hope all is well. Txt ok if possible
The way he’s moving, it makes me wonder if he has pain somewhere.
SEAT AND LEG!!! THEY FEEL IT! SHIFTING WEIGHT ETC. YOU MOVE THEIR FEET- THEY DONT MOVE YOURS- IN THE SADDLE OR ON THE GROUND1
I don't understand any of that but thanks.
Can he see on both sides?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Давно не виделись,
