Schooling Shoshone in the Missing Link Snaffle

  • Our horse, Shoshone, is a ranch horse that can do any job but he lacks a certain amount of lightness and handiness. So Pat decided to go back to the Missing Link Snaffle to teach Shoshone about collection, how to move laterally, and how to respond to Pat's body rather than just being ridden in a leverage bit. Stay tuned for progress reports! For more information or to contact us, visit our website www.thediscipli... . Thank you for watching!

    As always, you make concepts easy to grasp and break it down into layman's terms. I remember reading about the bumping and turning exercise in Ed Conell's "Hackamore Reinsman", but this was even easier to understand. Very cool pony by the way. 👌 Howdy from north Arkansas.

    Revisited this video and found some things I needed to correct in my skeleton. Been working with your bit and have a good back up communication going. I laughed when you mentioned the kitchen chair, because I was actually already practicing on my kitchen chair . The shoulder life made a huge difference. Thanks from Nova Scotia.

    I just can't stop watching! But I have to get to bed! I am going to try this with my Tennessee Walker. I think this is an awesome way to get a pacey gaited horse to learn to do a 4 beat gait. Even tho my boy is 20 yrs. old, this will help him get under himself into self carriage collection. I love how you keep doing the move over and over so us old riders can understand and REMEMBER! Lol!

    I appreciate this video. It’s a basic topic I feel like everybody talks about. Unfortunately nobody does it on a Mountain Stomper, except for you. And for that I thank you. Getting these big using horses to collect is a different beast.

    Love your videos, and your instructions, showing me just how to move my body to get movement. I have gotten into the habit of watching one of your videos ( especially the bay mare) before I head out to ride. First ten minutes schooling, falling into sin, correcting, then off down the trail. I'm getting better little by little and so is my mare. Thanks to both!

    Thank ya kindly Pat and Deb. I still got your bit I bought from you years ago. We got a 10 year old horse size pony mare here that all in all is not very willing. Right now I would characterize her as hard minded. I think I'll try her in your bit and see if that might help her out. Be well you two.

  • @tomhill2804

    I have a 5 year old that is green green. He is really heavy on the front. The snaffle was just like lifting led. I borrowed a missing link from Jennifer Jacobson. Just trying to get him light. Not sure of what his previous bit was. So he's carrying the missing link and using the cricket. I took him out to see how he would do and he would just try and push through it. I think that my muscles are getting bigger but what's next step in the stop and not laying on the bit. I have a good response in the pen with the exhale and give to the pressure.

      Back him until he will back off of your seat. Then go forward and stop off of your seat. There are a number of videos that talk about this subject specifically the playlist on the bay mare.

    • @PatnDebPuckett
      @PatnDebPuckett  4 года назад +4

      Is she bucking because she’s sore in her back or is she bucking because she’s fresh or is she bucking because her rider is holding onto the reins while asking her to go forward?

    His lip is still quivering are you still working on the habit of reaching for the shank? Can he grab the ring on the snaffle or is the snaffle primarily working on collection and when you go to pasture you change out bits to keep him from reaching for the cheek piece.

    • @PatnDebPuckett
      @PatnDebPuckett  4 года назад

      He doesn’t reach for the cheekpiece any more and it’s impossible for a horse to grab a snaffle ring.
