The man behind the camera mounted with such consideration for the horse. Nice & light fluid motion. Didn't pull the saddle down to the side and didn't land like a bag of wet sand. Nice!
Gasp!!! I LOVE Manny. Dang why I gotta live so far away. (New Zealand.) lol I have no doubt no matter how many great horses are on that list they will find great homes. Cheers Matt
I look so forward to seeing all you guys on Yellowstone I just love that part of it I watch it over and over what a great thing to kind of break up the drama and monotony I think it's awesome
Hi Matt!! 🙋♀️ Just sent you an email about Bruce 🙂 LOVED the section on him! It was cool to watch Ryan get on without spurs (I think I rely on mine too much at times 🤦♀️) and get the responses he did. 👍🙂 GORGEOUS!!❤❤
Rocky looks good, but Roscoe, wow man, that horse can go far. 😍 And I wish I had the money to buy one of your horses, what a chance. You're going to make some people very very happy. And of course, good luck at the futurity. 🍀👊🏻
Hello Matt, Quick question. I have noticed most of your horses look to be in the 14.2 to 15.2 hand range. ( I don't know how tall you are so this is my guess.) What size horse do you like for a Reiner? A more short and short coupled horse or a taller and long coupled horse? I would love to see a video on what you look for in your horses.
I already love watching your videos and love how you teach now I find out your friends with Taylor!!! Ok now your my new hero lol for real though I look up to you so much I finally found my purpose in life and what I wanna be and you are such an inspiration to me so thank you for being you. Ps tell Taylor I have the Yellowstone decal on my black truck just like they have on show so I’d fit right in lol
Matt cant find where you ended up at the futurity. could you do a video and talk about each horse and what happened with each..and good luck with your move
I also ware Kim's as well. Omg are you kidding Matt i fallow you on yr channel so cool. And i also watch Yellowstone from the beginning. Loved you on Yellowstone and run for the million don't know who won yet. God Bless 🙌 🙏.
Great video!! Love the insight and appreciate getting a glimpse into your process. Checked out the link for the clothing. Wow…looks great but I own horses and no way would I pay that amount for those clothes. Horse poor but soul rich!!! Carry on!!💕
I'm soul rich and horse poor myself lol. I always wonder what makes a pair of jeans worth paying $100 or more for them? Besides the "brand" or endorser?
I'm still wearing my use to be $13.99 wrangler zw that are now between 21.99 and 26.99 depending upon where you get them. And not specifically made in USA anymore
Hi again MATT Funny how recently I thought about contacting you about finding a special one for me and here you are selling some! Timing is everything and I have a couple things to take care of first but the time will come. No one I would trust more especially for what I'll be wanting... Hoping the best for you with all your upcoming events. You've done a beautiful job with them all. Always great fun to see the results of all the hard work and time. Thx as always for sharing especially this whole day one. Catcha next one...
Hey Matt, you know maybe this might be a good forum to discuss price. I mean what to expect for a Reiner or Ranch, low end / high end. I think maybe some people might not realize what the numbers really are.
@Christy B Yes!! I agree. I’m currently in the market for a nice horse, and have the funds to get one, but I have no idea what a horse from Matt would run. I have a general idea of what a good reining horse would cost, but I’m sure one that has Matt’s name on it would probably go for more. My family has owned horses for generations, including myself, but I still have never understood the “private treaty” stuff. Like, if you intend to sell one, why is the price of the horse something secret? Lol As you said, I think, at least, a price range could be provided just to let people know if they should bother reaching out or not, depending on what they have to spend.
@@candiblevins9185 I honestly don't know much about the western side of things. In my experience, hunter jumper world, I have bought from 2k to 30k and sold at low 6 figures. My husband would like to get into Ranch riding so I have been looking that up and was very interested when Matt commented on the sport.
@@christyb7590 I don’t know much about the English world, so I can totally understand where you’re coming from on that. Do people post the prices of the horses in those sports, or are they marked “private treaty” as well, if they are generally considered “high priced?” That’s one of the more frustrating things about buying a nice horse….having to reach out to several people every time you find one you may be interested in just to find out the price. 28k is the most I’ve spent, so it makes me wonder what that would, or would not, buy out of his barn. Someone like Matt I can understand going private, as I’m sure he gets a deluge of private messages daily, but you would think adding in a price range would be beneficial to help those that don’t have the money to spend know that they are out of their price range. My 28k may not even buy a leg off of one of his horses! Lol I think your idea is a good one. For him to address what to expect with the caliber of horses he has, along with what to expect from someone not quite as high profile.
@@candiblevins9185 I can understand why he does not list price. On this type of social media it would be a disaster. He'd get a million questions from minors. I have listed horses under 40k on certain sites with the price actually listed. The rest are listed like, high five figures, low/med six figures. On the western side I can see a huge price difference not only about skill but breeding. I looked at a ranch riding prospect recently from a known guy out of Ocala Fl . That horse was pretty much ready to go for an amateur, listed at 35k. So I don't know, maybe Matt will feel comfortable to throw some price ranges out for us. I love this channel. He is so good with the horses. He is, what we old timers call, a true horseman.
I’m dying for my forever horse and I think I’ve found him, I just don’t have any place to keep him. And the horse I want is just an auction/trail horse, but he’s beautiful and I think he’s perfect. ❤️
I am recording and saving all of The Last Cowboy episodes.. I have been watching them numerous times.. I really enjoyed the 3rd episode with the next Generation of Reiners.. Emma did amazing.. it was so great seeing her excitement after finishing her pattern.
Jeez Matt what a great video, DANGIT one of my favorites!! Tell Emma / Karen they can put me to work for him 😂. And seriously those horns are getting pretty popular I have seen a lot more people with Kimes around here too!!! Good luck at the futurity can’t wait to see the new ones this summer.😉💯💯 save a spot for me this summer I am ready to work!!
I have four year old appaloosa gelding. He just been started. He has a very bad attitude as soon as you ask him to do something. How do you address something like this
I do the all around, including horsemanship (which I know you did as a kid), and the reiners do the highest level difficulty of the haunch turn maneuver. So do you have any tips for getting a sharper, quicker, more efficient haunch turn? (Obviously not a full on spin like the reiners but like I said, still faster and more efficient with the hind leg sticking in the dirt)
These horses are absolutely stunning!! What is your favorite brand of saddle pad for a high withered horse? (Also a horse that is sensitive and can only use wool/felt, absolutely no fleece as that irritates him)
I would love to ride him.. I’ll be Honest I’m not in a position to buy a horse. But I would love to learn how to do raining. I’ve done Hunter Jumper’s as young girl in the last few years gotten into Western riding. Willing to drive out there. I’m in San Diego 😎
God is wish! 😂 I am still reining my 19 year old that I self trained and would love to retire him. But I don’t have that kind of money. Guess I am still stuck riding the grade horses. 😂
@@mattmillsreining1 🤣 you bet! More than I have at the moment but I have a promising colt along the same bloodlines in the barn right now. 😍 I’m praying he turns out. But I’d love to know how much he is. Hubs will kill me but it doesn’t hurt to ask. 🤫😍
I love Bruce's pivot. He would be a great all-around horse. Horsemanship, showmanship, western pleasure, etc. especially for a youth. I'd buy him for my kid if I had one and the money.
Hi Matt, I have a question for you. I do 4-H horse program and my horse is getting very old (he's going to be 26 April I can only walk and trot him due to him having navicular problems) so I have been looking around but not ready to buy a new horse yet.... would a reining horse be a good horse for smaller shows, trail riding and some ranch work? love your videos!
A reining horse could do all of those things. However, a well trained reining horse is expensive. Like 5-6 figures expensive. You could find an all around well trained trail horse that could do what you want, you don't need a reiner. THAT SAID, if you can find a retired reiner for less money who isn't competing anymore, might be perfect for you.
Why are reiners trained to carry their head so low? - it looks so unnatural and uncomfortable. Horses in the wild or in pasture never move with their heads so low. NOT AN ATTACK on Matt or anyone else. just asking a question.
Great question that I answer often! Did you see my horse Bruce bridleless? Many of our reining horses are bred to have “ level “ top lines which naturally sets them up to be low with their heads. Horses in the wild have their heads up because they are on alert. And my horses in pasture all have their heads low to eat!! These horses are so comfortable with their training that they feel at ease dropping their heads to their natural position. Yes there are exceptions…. But isn’t that with everything in life??? Respectfully, Matt
Just an observation, but from watching your video, of you riding Roscoe. Your breast collar seems to b chocking him n making him uncomfortable when his head is down. You might want to try a breast collar that forms a v in the center so it’s not tight on your horses neck, or no collar at all. Just want you to place good in your shows. Best wishes.
I'm seriously confused why Karen would sell Bruce so soon after getting him? Has her goals changed? It just seems sad a yr ago he was the (2nd) love of her life and now he's getting the boot?
The man behind the camera mounted with such consideration for the horse. Nice & light fluid motion. Didn't pull the saddle down to the side and didn't land like a bag of wet sand. Nice!
So glad to see you on RUclips. I saw you ride in an old video and was impressed. Looking forward to learning from you.
Thank you for the kind words!
I like the guy behind the camera asking questions, great video!
He’s So good
@2:17 He has a very arabesque face, what a beautiful horse.
Gasp!!! I LOVE Manny. Dang why I gotta live so far away. (New Zealand.) lol I have no doubt no matter how many great horses are on that list they will find great homes. Cheers Matt
that 3yr old gelding is TO DIE FOR !
Wow Confetti is beautiful 🤩 🤙🏾
I love watching your horses work, Matt!
Thanks for watching!
I saw two of your horses in the Futurity. I can't believe Confetti is for sale. It was nice to see Ryan.
Confetti had a bobble out there but she was very good
oh wow Manny is stunning!!
Some gorgeous horse's there. Wish had them ole funds for them. I'm sure you'll find perfect home's for them
Find that money tree!!
@@mattmillsreining1 if only!
I'm loving the Last Cowboy. And seeing you on Yellowstone.
I look so forward to seeing all you guys on Yellowstone I just love that part of it I watch it over and over what a great thing to kind of break up the drama and monotony I think it's awesome

Wow, i mean 👌 👏 wow all of yr horse's are amazing, Thank you Matt. and Ryan. God Bless be safe.

MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS!
Catching up on my Yellowstone and was super excited to see yal on there again!! Great job! And great videos!!
im a sucker for them bay boys! my wimpy bred is a goof ball
One day I would love to learn to ride a horse like you
Rocky looks good, but Roscoe, wow man, that horse can go far. 😍 And I wish I had the money to buy one of your horses, what a chance. You're going to make some people very very happy. And of course, good luck at the futurity. 🍀👊🏻
You should run a barrel pattern on one of your horses!!!
Hello Matt, Quick question. I have noticed most of your horses look to be in the 14.2 to 15.2 hand range. ( I don't know how tall you are so this is my guess.) What size horse do you like for a Reiner? A more short and short coupled horse or a taller and long coupled horse? I would love to see a video on what you look for in your horses.
Great question. An athlete is best!! No matter the build. 15 hands seems to be what most are
I am also new to Yellowstone lol.. I just started watching it this week for the first time so I am only on Season 1 episode 4.
Nice looking horses
Thanks!
I love Manny!!!! And Bruce! I love them all it’ll be sad to see them go
No kidding
I saw your run with Roscoe it was excellent! You guys are doing a great work!
Thank you! He’s awesome!!
Haha! Awesome video! I'm surprised your selling Bruce! Man I would love to own one of your horses!

He’s a good one
Three very nice horses especially that Manny horse👍🐎😊
Moving to Texas??
You should have a price list
My jaw dropped when I saw you on Yellowstone, I’m like wait wait wait I know who that is!
I was wondering why these horses move with their heads down? Are they specifically trained to do that?
