Sir, please don't change a thing about the way you are delivering this content. You have a gift for telling a story and getting the point across. I won't be a wrangler, but I will do better with my own horses as a result of watching your videos and then putting the information to use. Dad never sent me to chase chickens, but I loved to chop wood as a kid, so the wood pile is where my extra energy was often spent.
5:00 This is some of the best parenting advice I’ve ever heard. Parents knowing that kids being allowed to let off a little steam in a healthy way is vital, and if they’re not allowed to do so, something will explode, either inward or outward.
“Two Red Bulls & a Pop Tart”. That cracked me up. Gave me an instant picture of what you were describing. I think something that has contributed to your success as a wrangler/packer is that you have never let an incident in your life go by without taking something away from it. Not many people watch a pressure cooker & come away from that with lessons that help you navigate your life. Good on ya
Your constant overflow of wisdom and human decency is so magnetic that I can't stop binge watching you and your wife. Thank you, for your service to mankind!!!! God bless you both!
I really like the way you pass on your knowledge and ideas to others and the way you explain it. Great story teller and just the perfect amount of humor. Thank you for the great videos.
i dont know you sir, but just by stumbling on your video, i discerned that not only are you knowledgable , sincere but are unusually gifted to communicate with others. im "all in" just based on that!" In my humble opinion, you have a ministry here! I enjoy horses but due to my age and previous wrecks on themi am no longer able to ride. however, that will not stop me from learning and appreciating the animal , the wisdom nor the passion for them. thank you for making these videos and for being who God made you to be!
I think this video is good for far more than just horse training. Seems to me a lot of us younger parent's in this country could learn from it as well.
I'm disabled but I'm a cowboy at heart I grew up around horses and I've been riding since I was three thank you so much for this content good luck to you sir
I tell you what, that's one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched! I got my horse from a guy who said he couldn't be ridden, the horse just wouldn't stop and couldn't be tied. The owner previous to him said the same thing. It's taken me a while to get the horse right, but now, that horse does what I want, almost before I want it. This video, and the analogy of the pressure cooker would have made my training time even shorter, though. My horse, I just can't praise him enough now. The other day, we rode with the guy who used to own him, and he was just amazed at my Ranger. Heck, the horse even loads himself in the trailer, 100% of the time (just a little trick I taught him). More training videos please..I'll watch 'em all!
@@oliverscholz1410 Ok, the "trailer trick". This requires a little explaining, so pardon the long post. First, your horse has to trust you. My horse and I have built good trust, and it's not an instant thing, but I think it's required, really. The horse has to know that going in the trailer isn't a bad deal for him. Anyhow, I got my horse to where he is good on a lead rope, and loads easily. I used to step in first and he'd follow me in. I'd tie him in the trailer and love on him a minute. I realized that I never put any pressure on the lead rope, and he can't really see it, he can only feel it, ya with me so far? In the pasture, I tried just tossing the lead over his neck and lightly bumping the knot where it ties to the halter so he thinks I have the rope, but I don't. He followed me everywhere. Then I tried it going in the trailer. Sure enough, he'd follow me in the trailer. Then, I'd pretend to lead him around and up to the back of the trailer, but I stop at the back gate, and he just steps on in and goes to where he gets tied. He thinks I still have the rope, but it's just laying over his neck. It looks neat, and I guess it is, but there's not much to it. People standing around are quite impressed by it, though!
That works... the circle thing... I laughed hearing you say it. I slipped on it accidently. Got angry cause my horse ran me under trees and took off with me running,I fell backward still holding the reins as she drug me thru 2 almond orchards and back... then stopped and sniffed me. Wildest drag show I ever performed and I'm a real gal. Have the scars on my back that's faded but that memory has stuck forever. The circle thing was my revenge.
I am a wrangler and a Christian as well. This is my life. I do my best to train horses and teach people about the unique gift God has given us by using them to reach people. Everything I have watched in your videos is fantastic and I agree completely. It is exactly as you say it. It is logical, practical, considerate, and such good sense. The horses asks questions and we have to figure how best to answer them. I am always seeking to learn more things that will make me a better hand with horses, cattle, and people. I enjoy the way you present and having this as an authentic resource. Thank for making these videos.
If you’re still Wrangling in the next couple years,& this back surgery is a success,my wife and I would love to come ride with y’all.I’ve hunted all around Gunnison,Cement Creek area mainly. I’ve always been a competitive roper,calves and team roping,but I’ve never done trail riding. I’ve been been dealing with ponies for a long time in my life,& would like to get horseback and just relax in the high country. One of my friends, Billie Cowden,is from Eagle Co.& one of the best trainers I’ve ever met. He taught me a great deal.
When I was a kid my mom did the same thing but it was spaghetti sauce, that was 55 yrs ago and it still shows thru lots of repaint. Lol. EXCELLENT advice on the circle trot👍
it's amazing that you come up with the remedy for a fidgety child I used to do the same thing with mine when he was running around the walls of the house I told him go outside and run around in the yard until he felt a little bit tired and then come in and it worked every time I can't believe you said that because I've done the same identical thing. we too much alike. I'm glad you said that about a fidgety horse because that Appaloosa of mine used to be the same way and I didn't know what to do but now I know. happy trails
Common sense chats over a cup of coffee.Works for me! I think this is one of the toughest issues for most horse owners. Good job all around. And the communication style as the previous comment states works real well. Kind of like Baxter Black but instead from being "out there" you're "sitting in our kitchen."
I think I just found my favorite ol cowboy! Good stuff Mr. I hear you just fine. I have 4 wonderful mares (QH/OTTB ) and I enjoy learning and playing with them each day. I subscribed and I’m sure I will enjoy checking out your content.
I like the simplicity of how you solve „problems“ or situations . When others say „ my horse has to stand still“ your solution is „ if it wants to walk let it walk . That’s exactly my way of thinking . Keep making this great content . Greetings from Germany Bavaria
Your video " it's your bronc, ride it" was outstanding. I'm not in a habit of sharing videos but I have shared that particular little talk with my sons my daughter, and intend to share it with anybody I think might listen and who needs it. I had always had those ideas and have tried to live by that philosophy, learned it from my parents teachings and by their example. I was one of the lucky ones and bless my luck every day. I don't take it for granted. But I could never have expressed my thoughts in just such a way as you are able to, and I'm good with words. As long as you're talkin", I'm gonna be listenin' and figure a lot of other people should be too.
Partner, I love the way you think and convey your knowledge and wisdom to us. Like the last person said, don’t change a thing about your channel and keep tell us stories that are intriguing and
Solution for low volume audio: I am not a techy, but I got two boys who get the credit: If you have a Smart TV (we got one from walmart because lightening burned the old one), when you start this RUclips, you can project it to your TV, tab on video, tab on upper right icon - watch the video on your TV, and turn up the volume! Appearently you can blue tooth to computer too, or just youtube there with speaker attached, but I am not there yet! - Thank you for the video.
I like your philosophy and how you look at things. I am also from Kentucky. I've broke a few horses and been broke by a couple. 2 red bulls and a pop-tart. That's awesome. I've done the wrong things that you talk about. I appreciate your saying that you should be safe, logical, and have fun.
The best way to “turn up the volume“ is to try and place your self as close to the phones microphone as possible, or to invest in some type of external mic. I actually think we can usually hear you quite well, especially for not wearing a mic!
That was really good ! I am getting a 4 mos old Gypsy Vanner Cross . I really like how you handle a Horses behavior. Which everyone would be as patient and understanding with Horses 💜🐴💜 Laura from California 🇺🇸
SO appropriate to an issue I'm having with my mostly-green 4yo mustang. I'll be trying this next ride instead of going back to the round pen & making him run around (totally ineffective, btw). Thanks!
Growing up in east ky myself i get the pressure cooker theory. We logged many miles in Danile Boone national forest on lots of horses . My grandpa’s 1st rule was if your behind me stay back to we’re you can see my horses back feet come off the ground. If you can’t do that ride circles around me all the way down the trail until you can and they catch on quickly and that has work for me in so many ways with horses he would always say you will have to put in the work to appreciate the ride. So refreshing to here you share. Thanks
We’ve got a couple of real horseman in our family. Ranch work, cattle drives, competitive roping, back country hunting, etc. I am not one of them. I sure find the subject fascinating and I’m loving this channel. Thanks for every video you produce for us sir👍🏻
Being in the dude ranch setting you see this problem a lot when you’re riding a horse you pulled out of a 100+ herd, it’s really hard to do trotting circles when you’re leading guests but honestly it’s all you can do. Nothing dulls a horses mouth like constantly checking them up
Subbed. Gladly. Good, common sense horsemanship found here. A funny thing about a horse; the more you try to tell them not to move their feet, the more they feel a need to move their feet (partly, it's survival instinct). But, the more you allow them the opportunity to move their feet the easier it is for them to find a quiet spot to put their feet. Just my observation. 😄
Your title caught my attention. When I was a younger man I had an Anglo-Arab mare. She was a beautiful animal but just would not want to walk anywhere. She always wanted to run so she jigged ALL the time. I asked a friend who was a quarter horse trainer and his response/solution was a 100% opposite to yours. He was all about yanking on the but to “shock” her into being still. It didn’t work!! I wish I knew this info back then. It would have solved so much frustration on mine and the horses part.
We love to hear your take on various subjects based on your life experience. My paternal grandfather (RIP) called it ‘horse sense’. Maybe common sense is not that common these days. Just think of some of the nonsense being talked about nowadays that some folks are taking seriously. Just one example; a male who “identifies” as a female. A boy who “identifies” as a girl competing on a female sports team. Really? Have we heard as a society really come to this? Love the vids and keep on truckin’.
I have to respectfully disagree with you Michael D. There are plenty of channels discussing the current state of affairs in our Country and society. This gentleman has a lot of wisdom concerning establishing a relationship with your horse, and he is a wonderful communicator. That's all I'm interested in hearing him talk about. I don't want him to change anything in his videos.
This is a wonderful analogy, I have always tried to use the one reign stop to slow down my horse, but I have never truly understood why I did that until now. Thank you very much!
Duane I sure enjoy your videos, good content! I was fortunate to have the same upbringing as you, needing common sense and being able to think on my feet. A person can always learn something knew if he’s looking and willing to learn. I find at least a little nugget of info that’s worthy of tucking into my library of knowledge each time I watch. And your phrase in itself carries a lot of credit, “ be logical, and be reasonable.” Good stuff.. thank ya much!
I guess I'm a mite different than most folks. I have rode a lot of horses on trail rides, and stuff. Some horses do just fine if they are out in front, and do just great, put em in the middle or in the back, they didn't like it. But where they didn't want to be, is where I would ride em! Sometimes it was a little rough, but they needed to learn different places, it was where I wanted them to be, not where they wanted to be, in there happy place. And if they didn't want to stand, just before they moved, I made em move. They thought it was my idea and not theirs, they figured out that it's easier to stand...than to move. But what do I know, I'm 73 and still learning! Just another case of "there you are"
Not being a working cowboy/wrangler I would think the horse would be so valuable not only for work but building a companionship. People whom do not ride seem to think what they see in movies and television are the way cowboys/wrangler's ride including galloping on and on and on. Hope to hear about horse endurance.
Great tips! I train all mine to stand still when I get on. I also train them to move over to wherever I am with a hand signal. Very useful with a tall horse on the trail. Jus5 have to find that log to stand on
Wonderful tips! Thank you for sharing! I am gaining parenting wisdom and horse handling wisdom for the price of one! Love that your tips are practical and can apply easily to horse handling as well as life. Thank you Sir! I’m very much enjoying these videos! Sending gratitude from Northern Wyoming 😉
Chasing the chickens You're killing me. I love it. I'm looking into the volume issue, it shouldn't be a huge issue but needs to be dealt with. I've got you dialed up to 100 and it's still too low.
Once again, not just a cowboy thing, but a life thing. I do not care if you live in New York City or back woods northern Minnesota where I live. There is wisdom here.
Maybe get a mic. Check with your camera supplier. I watch your video I read all comments to see what I could pick up. Thank you for all your great videos.
You would have to increase the volume in your editing software and re-upload the video to youtube because youtube studio doesn't allow creators to turn up the volume of their already uploaded videos. For those who are having problems with your video volume, they need to get an external speaker and turn it up as you the creator of the video can do nothing about it now that the videos are already uploaded.
Volume is still really low.. Great channel, topics, authentic info-love the channel! I'm a mountain bikers, and can't ride horses as my lower spine can't take it, but wish I could. God Bless.
It’s great to see a mountain biker viewing a channel like this! We all need to know what goes on in the others world as far as sharing the trail and the resources! I’m a backpacker and now a horse/mule packer. When I backpacked a lot I was treated poorly by some (but definitely not all) horsemen, as a horseman, it’s amazing how some some hikers and bikers view me! The best impressions made on me while backpacking were by horseman who stopped to chat, share a suggestion of a camp spot, fishing hole or whatever. I try to extend that courtesy when I encounter other users on the trail today.
@@jamesmilos9909 Yes, Its kind like the 80/20 rule most are very good, just a few can create a bad reputation. I was climbing a super steep hill on my bike one time and a woman with a horse went galloping right past up the hill. I was amazed at the power of that horse! wish I had 1/4 of the speed it went up the hill with! Don't mind not having the chance to get bucked off however! I'm sure its very rare if you know what your doing, however I like to look at the bright side!!
Presser cooker company recommend not use beans cooking , many time they can get lucky nothing happens but maybe explode , beans go stuck like cement and pot can not breath .

I never thought about a horse being happy or sad. But I suppose they can be glad to see other horses. They sure act like it sometimes.
Love your comparisons and excellent advice on giving the horse a new job when it feels the need to move it's feet.

Duane I sure enjoy your videos, good content! I was fortunate to have the same upbringing as you, needing common sense and being able to think on my feet. A person can always learn something knew if he’s looking and willing to learn. I find at least a little nugget of info that’s worthy of tucking into my library of knowledge each time I watch. And your phrase in itself carries a lot of credit, “ be logical, and be reasonable.” Good stuff.. thank ya much!
I guess I'm a mite different than most folks. I have rode a lot of horses on trail rides, and stuff. Some horses do just fine if they are out in front, and do just great, put em in the middle or in the back, they didn't like it. But where they didn't want to be, is where I would ride em! Sometimes it was a little rough, but they needed to learn different places, it was where I wanted them to be, not where they wanted to be, in there happy place. And if they didn't want to stand, just before they moved, I made em move. They thought it was my idea and not theirs, they figured out that it's easier to stand...than to move. But what do I know, I'm 73 and still learning! Just another case of "there you are"
Thank you for your help. I love listening to your stories.
Not being a working cowboy/wrangler I would think the horse would be so valuable not only for work but building a companionship. People whom do not ride seem to think what they see in movies and television are the way cowboys/wrangler's ride including galloping on and on and on. Hope to hear about horse endurance.
Appreciate the videos no apologies needed understand having to work
Great tips! I train all mine to stand still when I get on. I also train them to move over to wherever I am with a hand signal. Very useful with a tall horse on the trail. Jus5 have to find that log to stand on
Wonderful tips! Thank you for sharing! I am gaining parenting wisdom and horse handling wisdom for the price of one! Love that your tips are practical and can apply easily to horse handling as well as life. Thank you Sir! I’m very much enjoying these videos! Sending gratitude from Northern Wyoming 😉
Great show, turn up
the frign volume
Thanks for the advice for horses that walk off when you try to mount. Next time, I'll try the circles.
Great video as always,love the down to earth simple way of explaining things Always look forward to watching.keep it up 👍
So far I've noticed that your indoor videos are low and your outdoor videos are fine. Hope this helps.
I am sooo glad I came across your channel.
Chasing the chickens You're killing me. I love it. I'm looking into the volume issue, it shouldn't be a huge issue but needs to be dealt with. I've got you dialed up to 100 and it's still too low.
Great video, really enjoy watching your content and improving my horsemanship knowledge and skills!
Once again, not just a cowboy thing, but a life thing. I do not care if you live in New York City or back woods northern Minnesota where I live. There is wisdom here.
duane i like ejs color and temperment the little ive seen keep up the good work and god bless ya
Love the videos! Great life advise and info on working with horses. Thank you sir! Your awesome!
I learn so much from you.
Maybe get a mic. Check with your camera supplier. I watch your video I read all comments to see what I could pick up. Thank you for all your great videos.
Love this guy!!!!
REAL. GOOD. INFORMATION.
I knew there was a little Kentucky in that draw!
I really enjoy your video's. Keep up the great work.
I can still hear that jiggler in my momma's kitchen ...... lots of wet saddle blankets sometimes will take care of that jiggler lol
You remind me of the Sam Elliot character 'Conn Conagher". Thanks for Sharing!
You would have to increase the volume in your editing software and re-upload the video to youtube because youtube studio doesn't allow creators to turn up the volume of their already uploaded videos. For those who are having problems with your video volume, they need to get an external speaker and turn it up as you the creator of the video can do nothing about it now that the videos are already uploaded.
Speakers only pick up sounds from certain distances and octives it rh microphone is closer it will work better for a low tone voice
Exactly! God bless you all
also when horses feel frustrated it builds ..if they are being asked to do something they don't like or something very hard all the time
Thank you for the information.Very much appreciate the information. Makes a lot of sense.
Thanks for doing this! Much Obliged
Sure wish I would have known this when I was raising my son. I always blamed it on my wife and her family.
Can you make a video of the groundwork you do when a horse steps off?? Thank you!
No se preocupe yo nomas quiero saber si ya no van a ser otra serie de HEARTLAND lo extrañamos me encanto la serie
Volume is still really low.. Great channel, topics, authentic info-love the channel! I'm a mountain bikers, and can't ride horses as my lower spine can't take it, but wish I could. God Bless.
It’s great to see a mountain biker viewing a channel like this! We all need to know what goes on in the others world as far as sharing the trail and the resources! I’m a backpacker and now a horse/mule packer. When I backpacked a lot I was treated poorly by some (but definitely not all) horsemen, as a horseman, it’s amazing how some some hikers and bikers view me! The best impressions made on me while backpacking were by horseman who stopped to chat, share a suggestion of a camp spot, fishing hole or whatever. I try to extend that courtesy when I encounter other users on the trail today.
@@jamesmilos9909 Yes, Its kind like the 80/20 rule most are very good, just a few can create a bad reputation. I was climbing a super steep hill on my bike one time and a woman with a horse went galloping right past up the hill. I was amazed at the power of that horse! wish I had 1/4 of the speed it went up the hill with! Don't mind not having the chance to get bucked off however! I'm sure its very rare if you know what your doing, however I like to look at the bright side!!
I love that pinto beans story.
Like your videos you sir live the cowboy life every day ( Cowboy all day everyday)
Presser cooker company recommend not use beans cooking , many time they can get lucky nothing happens but maybe explode , beans go stuck like cement and pot can not breath .
Thank you for this insight. Wonderful.
