If you’d like to learn more about bits and bitting, we suggest our new DVD, “More Than a Bit… o’Information”. It’s the most comprehensive and thoroughly vetted information available today. You’ll understand how to communicate better with your horse and understand his side of the reins more fully. This is not an infomercial and it isn’t discipline specific either. In fact, we describe things from the basics of English and Western and even go into advanced Dressage and Vaquero stuff. Novice to Pro, there’s lots of good info provided that will benefit your training and relationship with horses. It will pay for itself the very first time you don’t buy the wrong bit.

Lovely tutorial! My new gelding knows how to neck rein but I didn't. This helped a lot!
This is very helpful. I've taken a grand total of 7 lessons in a western saddle, in nearly 18 years of riding. My next dressage prospect might be coming from a western barn. I wasn't sure I remembered how to steer a one hander!
this video was incredibly helpful thank you!!
Thank you so much for all your hard work showing us with these videos
Fantastic tutorial. You have very light hands.
excellent demonstration. I just bought an 8 year old mare who has been off for 2 years with a colt and am needing to tune her up in the reining department. I'm happy to see some of what you showed I've already been doing, but you gave me some great tips and things to practice next time I ride.Thanks,
What a beautiful horse and thanks for the instructional video, I need to work on this technique, the horse I rescued is green/broke and I would like to do neck reining instead, much easier to use one hand.
Gorgeous horse!!
Beautiful horse
I have always crossed the reins under the neck. Now a lot of people do not understand really how crossing the reins really work. Let's say I want my horse to turn left. So the leg aids are the same. The rein that is applied to the left side of the bit due to to crossing the rains is laid on the right side of the horses neck as you lay that
rein on the neck it will put pressure on the left side of the bit which gives two aids. One on the left side of the bit, another aid is given on the right side of the neck, and one more aid is given with your calf so 1+1+1=3.
Now here is the part that most people miss with this technique. The opposite rein should be hanging very loose with no tension on it what so ever. So when you turn right everything is done the opposite. Because the rein is now on the left side of the neck with some tension on it. The opposing left rein has a large amount of slack on it. Plus leg aids are given. So I explained it this way because people do not give the slack to any rein this in turn will confuse the horse because now both reins are tight. The thing to remember is to tighten the rein that is the way you want the horse to turn, along with leg aids. The tight rein tips the horses head in the direction you want to go. Slack is given to the rein that you are not going.
I do like what and how you are teaching neck reining. The leg watching that you do is most definitely helping the horse learn.
I hope you try both ways. I have found that equine will learn fairly quickly with crossing the reins under the neck and sit up barrels to make them go around. At least give it a good shot and try my way. I am just trying to be of some help.
Thanks
What a beautiful horse omg
Always good stuff Bro!
Gerry Cox thanks! Y’all should check out Gerry’s channel too. Excellent horseman.
That horse looks like hidalgo . 😍😂
Awesome. Damn Good.
Great.
Quick question! When you are teaching neck reining, do you also use your outside leg (toward the girth) to assist with outside pressure and get them to move their front end over? Or are you only using your inside leg to disengage their hind end? I hope that makes sense. Thank you!
Kimbri Herring when I initially ask, I use no leg. If they don’t respond/need help, the appropriate leg comes in to help them.
Do you have any tips for my mare that's riding in a copper snaffle? When I'm asking for a bend during a circle, she lowers her head and hangs off the bit with her head on an angle, pulling on my hands. Do you have any recommendations for how to fix this?
It's all in the timing of the release. If that action doesn't get her anywhere, but she realizes that a different action, like holding her nose under her poll, with proper bend, and eventually proper head height does get her releases, she'll soon seek those positions.
Should I work on leg cues at the same time,or would that be to much input and cause problems
That's a great question Scott. I'd absolutely want leg cues to be something the horse already knows and is very comfortable with BEFORE I ever started neck reining specific stuff. Then, I'd have the leg aids to help them out if they get stuck or confused when we begin neck reining. I do, however, want to present the rein cue first and then back it up with my leg cues. That way the horse will get lighter by responding to the rein only. In the end, I'll basically have 2 sets of complete cues for most things, the rein aids and the seat and leg aids, and my horse would operate well off of either one, without the benefit of the other. When I have both, things will be super smooth and easy. That's the goal anyway.
