My Horse Bolts Off When Ridden!! Can You Help Me??

- Horse wont ride out and bolts off, Owned and loved for years this mare wont hack out and if pushed will bolt off! Lots of meaningful groundwork has stopped the bucking but the dream would be to ride out on her own or lead out in front. Helping this horse and owner became potentially dangerous times for both Steve and her owner

watching Steve bounce through the hedges like a kid at pony club has made my day 🤣 Well done Steve and Pam, you've done wonders for that pony!!
Mine too
and now your comment make me think of paintings/drawings of NormanThelwell 😂 Great vide as always 🥰
I know how serious these situations are but you put that funny music in and add your funny remarks and I can’t help but laugh. I do appreciate you showing us the true reactions of the horse though and I appreciate everyone allowing you to film so we all can learn.
This is an interesting puzzle. The owner understandingly finds it hard to be the leader to this nervous but very strong,assertive, stubborn horse. One hopefully safe way for her to get this horse to calm down might be to ride her all over the place behind another calm horse. Until everything is very familiar. Then to ride her with another horse until she is very quiet. Then to ride her for short periods by herself over the same places until she is quiet. I wonder why the owner wants a bitless bridle? Maybe the horse needs work on her teeth. So called wolf teeth can be a problem. It would be very hard to trust this horse. The horse needs to learn to enjoy being ridden. Lots of exercise will help. But Steve will not always be there to save the day.
Steve, I love the Benny Hill and Bonanza, brilliant!!! You're work has made such huge differences in these horses, thank you!!!!
Great change in that pony...so funny you racing up and down...when Sky took off...🤣
I rescued a little 4 yr old paint that would bolt when mounted, bolt when dismounting, bolt when ridden etc. I was told he was broken in by someone who wore big spurs so I’m sure he was poked each time they got on and off. Their way of “fixing” the issue was to run him as hard as they could til he was exhausted. 😡
I spent weeks at a time just putting my foot in the stirrup then out, then standing then out then almost sitting then out then sitting then dismounting…months and months til he was so bored I could sense him saying “just get on with it will you?”😂
Then I did clock face..where I would take him in 15 minute increments around the face of the “clock”. Then 30 minutes and so on. They said he couldn’t be caught…I just followed him around til he looked at me , then before too long that wasn’t an issue either. When I did halter him we just walked around with no work..just grazing, looking at things..boring stuff. Now 19 years later he is a “go to” horse, a mountain horse , a trail horse , and like his buddies..anyone can get on him and have a fun solid safe ride. So much depends on how these dear souls are started..sad that so many are not treated with patience and respect.
Lovely, well done ❤

Oh when you came cantering back from the no go lane I’m sorry but.😂😂😂😂
I could hardly breathe I was laughing so much. Glad he was ok!
@@victoriabonica1450 i Literally had a comedy arrest, and watched it over and over. @Steveyounghorsemanship; the editing and the comments were fabulously entertaining, by the girls.. and then Steve's narration. I've got this, I'm 'vagnifiscent', then the, Did you mean to do that? Tanya; Er no, I don't think so! Oh my days!!! LOL. On a serious note, wow. Sky is magnificent, and sooooo powerful. Bitless!! I ride galloping ex racers, but bitless? Amazing ethics, and brave. Serious, superpower Pam. What a team effort guys. Im recovering from covid again, and i had several coughing fits laughing. Your fault steve, for the music. Most importantly you all stayed calm and encouraging. BRAVO XX
So liberating to be able to feel confident and comfortable going out enjoying a ride. Top job by all.
Steve's RUclips videos have probably saved my life. Having been knocked down twice and actually trampled and injured one of those times (by a horse that was neglected his whole life) I've taken a deep dive into the videos, and l am so pleased with the progress we've made. Thank you, Steve Young. You have taught me so much. Blessings~~
My best "blood everywhere" was when the horse I was on took a big mouthful of tree. The other horses then ran off and mine went too but still had the big mouthful of tree. Came back like a catapult and got me in the ear. Proper bugs bunny. Literally lying on that horse as it cantered off. I think I can thank the horse I learned to ride on for a lot. Every ride was a lesson in not letting her turn left & take off down the road to the orchard. Did wonders for my "crisis management."
😂😂😂 ❤
I love it when the owner's know about Steve's teachings and have applied them. 'Moving their feet' and also all of the ground work. The owner had done her homework. Good job.
I love the light hearted fun that you put into this one. I know it can be scary, but those girls were determined and have had Sky for a while so they knew what he was like, and your judgement of the situation was spot on - you’ve had so much experience with horses and their riders to make that call. A wonderful video with some giggles to boot 😂🤣
So much joy there. Glad that no one was seriously hurt. The music was hilarious. Pam is great with horses. ❤
Pam & Rosemary - what a joy to see you persevering in a lovely upbeat & caring way - thank you for letting us join you for this learning! And Pam, your comment about despite knowing it is needed you are aware of being a bit hesitant/slightly fearful of firming up too much with her because of her spiralling up - that completely resonated with me - so well done for pushing on through with calm bravery - what an inspiration!! I recognise that little hump/head shake/tail flick when asking for more energy too - thank you again ladies, Steve & team - great learning ❤
Always a learning and enjoying experience. And Tanya…you are amazing w/you videoing and interjecting comments that tell how very much you know about what Steve does. Never ‘hold back’ on commenting, talking to other animals as you move about!! The two of you are a team and I miss you when you aren’t there. Ignore the rude comment…please! Continue being who you are, you are a valuable asset to each video! 👍
I agree ❤❤
Steve, I’ve enjoyed this video more than any others. I think because you added humour and I know exactly what naughty ponies can be like and when they plant their feet and refuse to go out or bolt home or take you up the bank. Oh my goodness how I wish I had known about you then. Xx
After a long hard workday, this video really made my day even better.
The ladies were exceptional! Especially working her horse bit less. Great example of awareness and determination. Tip my hat to them.
The beginning to end was very enjoyable and made me chuckle when Tanya said it was the most diving she’d done all day 😂 kudos to Steve’s training and bless you Tanya for having great video hands. It’s not easy doing videography and have to give Tanya the deserved recognition also. The both of you are so fun to listen and watch. Great way to end my day. Thanks you for releasing and letting us experience your content. ❤
My respect for Pam! You are a brave woman, Sky is not an easy horse at all but she's lovely
Fun to watch Steve work his magic for horse and Rider. James has been busy too editing these videos, thank you Young family for all your hard work entertaining me with the foals and these wonderful and important lessons in Horsemanship. 🇨🇦🥰Sharon.
Well done, Pam and Rosemary! Steve strikes again! 😁
I absolutely love that you keep the camera rolling during unexpected events!
You are a blessing to troubled and confused horses . I'm so glad for all these horse owners that get to understand better how to communicate with horses, thanks to your skills and devotion . amazing results
❤ to see them improve lovely
So so love and respect your approach-both towards the horses and their owners! Your empathy, logic, and humility are a powerful combo.
My hat is off to Pam. I was a very insecure rider when I had my horse and to see her just have the desire and determination is so admirable. Having you there certainly helped and I wish her well. BTW hacking thru the road and lanes was always a dream of mine ❤. Well done all. 😊
One of the things I enjoy watching your vids is the way the horses eyeball you from across the paddock. Very much like Neo with his "Bring it" gesture.
She was so brave! Well done
Well done, Pam!! For sticking with Skye, and not selling her and her problems on to another person. I'm so chuffed that you kept her and persevered with it. Stay strong. You'll get the results you want, with time. Watch this video!! Over and over again!! There is a lot of LEARNING in it, that you may have forgotten, so it's always best to watch your video often, to remind yourself of what needs to be done. I know you and Rosemary will see to Skye's every need. Great learning video, once again, Steve! Again, don't do any of this short tracking. Take your time!! If you don't know what you're doing, and you try to flood a horse or pony, it can end very badly for yourself and the rider/owner!! Get professional help!! ALWAYS!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Steve you made my day!! 😂 Thanks for all you do.
The Lone Ranger rides again!!!🤣But seriously, good job Steve is such a fine horseman, someone
less able could have got into trouble there. And how lovely that breakthrough happened, and
Sky and Pam have been able to brave the path of doom thanks to Steve.
ps Steve, are you limping on your left foot??
I love that you show the failures as well as successes it makes it real and you a real person showing how to keep going in the face of setbacks.
Just loved the musical complement!!! What a great addition!!! LOL...
Very much heart in this vid❤ Thanks!
I had a friend in my youth that had a very intelligent but stubborn pony. I could phone her and her mum would tell me that my friend would phone me back later bc she was trying to get her pony to go out from the yard to the road or something like that. Very friendly horse but when he decided "that's it" he would just lay down and there you were standing, feet still in stirrups, on the ground over the horse. He just sank to the ground. Never even shook you. Oh, the times! 😄
Omg absolutely howling! Glad everyone is ok though. I love that you’re honest enough to post the reality, it’s very reassuring that even the most experienced horsemen have these moments and gives me hope that I’ll get there eventually with my wilful mare 😂 and well ridden Pam! Great job!
I realise how dangerous this was, but as always Steve you never blame the horse and always understand their fears. All done with grace and quality. Great learning. Thank you Steve and Tanya. I must admit I laughed at the music loved it. 😂
I knew it was going to be Benny Hill music…😆That was funny. That was a most enjoyable video, with terrific results achieved. Pam is right…there is something about Sky.♥️
Lovely to watch you working with Sky, and teaching the girls, including Sky, the way it really is to enjoy each for the rider and Sky 👍😃💐💐💐
Great Great video again!!!! My mule was famous for those very "turn n burn" maneuvers. Only mules done keep running , they spin again to snort at the danger. Haa . I've learned to stay centered and go with it but lots of groundwork ,getting his feet in my hands so to speak and many other "exersizes " has helped him realize he should think about it a bit more first. Also some cow working clinics to face fears. Haa. They really can come around with our help if we stick with it. Hes now my go to guy for getting out on the trail.(not for working cows) 😂
But I swear they get so proud of themselves when they overcome their fears.
Thank you to the owner who cared enough to help this horse. Steve is such a wonderful trainer. Would you eventually put a bit on her?
Not my pony, so forgive me for butting in, but most people choose bitless for ethical reasons, so unlikely to go back to bits I would think.
@ckh2815 , I don't think the bit's the problem. Did Steve state that it was bitless that was the issue?
@ckh2815 , he probably sounded surprised as he prefers to use a bit. He definitely has no issues telling people if he thinks a method is wrong - for example feeding treats by hand. Not really sure what your argument is. The issue is lack of confidence in both rider and pony, not the bitless bridle. 50 years of experience mate.
@@evieblessedHe only stated his observation and never said anything about bitless being a problem. He did say it can make it a little harder to turn them when they’re in a run as you had, but not impossible.
@ckh2815 well it clearly does work, as they were doing brilliantly by the end of the video. The Bitless bridle wasn't the problem, it was the missing parts of the training and confidence that were missing. "A stronger bit" is rarely the answer lack of confidence.
Great job helping this horse and rider, Steve!! Thanks for the wonderful filming, Tanya!! HUGS from TEXAS, YA'LL!! ❤❤❤
Such a gorgeous little horse! So loved this thank you Steve and Tonya Young!!! ❤
Well done team!
I loved the way Steve chuckled at Sky pushing him backwards on their first meeting 😂😂😂. Horses are supposed to be fun, a sense of humour is essential 😅😂. I also loved seeing him cuddling her neck, we don't see a lot of that 🥰
Wonderful video, Pam did amazing. Though there were a few funny moments, the video shows even an amazing, skilled trainer, as you can find themselves in unpredictable, dangerous situations. It is how you handled it with calm, quality, and grace. Sky understood she was safe. Amazing ❤
🐎😊I can relate!😊In 1978, when I was 13 years, my parents bought me a wonderful 14 year old pinto pony, named, Tom🐎 He used to gallop back to the barn! After a year, I finally could handle it. Like, your friend, Pam, I just loved to "hack out", with friends. We lived in Francestown, NH, and there are dirt roads, everywhere💗😊🐎What a fun video, thank you😊🐎
Sky types are unbelievably strong ....as always Steve you go above and beyond....even in your shorts!
Benny Hill's music made me honestly laugh! :D Brilliant video!
A lot more fun for us watching it than for Steve doing it 😂
That was funny. The horse came over to Steve and in horse talk said I'm the top boss. What a shock later on for the horse to find, for the first time no she wasn't. The horse must have come over all funny at that revelation. Poor thing!
All the comments on everyone’s experiences had me laughing remembering my riding days! So relatable! Poor Steve!❤😂
Pam and Rosemary are fabulous! And the try that Pam has in her is to be admired. Also, she'd already brought her a long way with her groundwork. Much respect to them, and to you, Steve, for showing us all aspects of what happened. It helps to remind us that these behavioral issues are a huge challenge to everyone, including professionals, and that perseverance is often the name of the game. Cheers! 🎉
Thank you so much from Canada Pam & Rosemary for sharing your experience so we can learn from Sky issues. We are all have issues and this is just lovely. Keep with it you’ll get there… your amazing!
Fantastic video! Such an adorable pony and now she can be an enjoyable ride. Bolts are scary, scary, scary! Great job Steve and Tanya and Pam! ❤❤❤
Brilliant VLOG! I really loved the accompanying music … appropriate. 🤣😂🤣
What a gorgeous mare … I can see why she didn’t want to give up on her. Definitely an improvement from what she was … as you’ve mentioned.
Great job Pam!
Happy Trails! 🙏🙌❤️✝️✡️🍏🍉🥕🍎🫐🇨🇦
Aww, this was a great video. I saw the back of Tanya head running across the field. The music 🎶 is great too 😂
Lolol !!
She looks so much like my Maggie. Some of the same problems that we worked out together. Love your videos! ❤️🌹❤️
Hi, What a lovely video. I'm very much not a horse person, that doesn't mean that I'm not enjoying the videos. Good on Pam for getting the issue fixt (at least to 90%). I love the filming and the "cinematography" of it too, including the talks from behind the camera. I hope that those plums are ripe by now, and that Pam and friend have put them to good use. Yours, Ann
Good on you Pam, your a great rider xx from Australia
Pam I totally get your feeling about building your confidence. I’m like that too! Little beggars pickup on that and think they can get away with pushing us and nibble…
Well done Pam and Rosemary, great job and a lovely horse, and stables, you have there. Well done too, to Tanya and Steve, what a warvellous couple bringing us the miracles to watch with our very eyes and learn little bits of the warehouses of amazing horsemanship they have available to call on. Stunning stuff!
Y'all did wonderful Pam and Steve. She has made a huge improvement.❤❤😊😊
Pam you were so brave.
Also want to give Rosemary a shout-out for her help.😊❤😊❤
I know it could have been dangerous but so funny to see you being carted off. Lol. But what a change toward the end. Well done all
It was wonderful seeing you ride a client's horse, Steve. I don't recall seeing that before except in an arena! The owner would do well to practice sitting with more confidence and not in a position where her anxiety is being telegraphed to the horse, IMHO
Great video. If only the UK would take a little better care of the pathways and trim them. Life for this horse would be just a little easier. Pam did really great, what a girl!
He's got sticky baws 🤣 i spit my drink & piddled 🤣😂🤣😆
Great to watch how things are progressing so well. Beautiful work together.
Steve you brought back some of my memories of riding horses just like Skye and just how dangerous it was. I toughed it our just because I wanted to ride and one day have a horse of my own. Sorry but I did have a giggle at the parts you added the music to like others did. I hope your face healed up fast. I like that Pam continues to enjoy working and riding her horse. Thank you.
I used no bit or a rubber Mullen mouth
h snaffle my sister got me from Germany.They only had hard ones in Australia in the1970's This one was soft and bendy.
Thanks for your videos.Would have been.great years ago😊
Such a great video! Pam and her friends are amazing people, brave and kind and so smart to ask for help with this potentially very dangerous mare. She really responded well to your handling, Steve, and Pam has followed through in spades! I’m really glad no one got seriously injured or frightened, and that things continue to get better. The mare is just beautiful and seems much more relaxed and willing. ❤❤❤
love how you show the good, the bad, the ugly.
Hi Steve and Tanya . Can you sometime maybe do a talk on horse bits and what type is too aggressive ,and the types that are comfortable for the horse , but works when needed. Going bit less can you control a horse in an emergency , is it safe. Keep up the wonderful work , giving all the horses a second chance . Not only the ones you see , but also by giving your audience the skills to work out their problem horse at home . Thank you. For making the horse world a better place.
My horses thing was blue flapping plastic..which were used to cover trailer sailors and general trsilers( table top trucks).But he was only 13:3 hands so we worked through things.It was in city suburbia
..At least there were areas of bush to the west and beaches to the east.That helped.him.
Where you all live looks nice for riding...Great!
Great video and Pam done amazing not giving in and knowing change can only come with change ❤
omgosh Steve this is hilarious! But you got through to her. Fantastic video showing it happens to the best of us. I love how real you are. Glad you were ok though! Horses!
Great video, lots of learning, Pam just needed a little help getting over the hump. So happy to see them getting on, I'm sure they will get better and better. Love It !!
Wow, what an awesome change in Sky. So good she learned that she doesn't have to bolt to save the day. Well done everybody 🖒🖒🖒💖
And the music was hilarious 😂
@ Pam: I saw that you are using a Trekker flexible saddle (looks like mine, a Trekker Pro Endurance).
I have had that saddle for 14 years now and have always been very happy with it, being able to use it on several horses of different shape as it is fully adjustable and therefore really fits well on most horses. I hope that you are as happy with your saddle as I am with mine 🍀
Omg that was the best 😂😂 glad your all safe 😂
🤣🤣🤣oh dear, I got one of those as well 🤣🤣🤣well done Pam and team x
Best video you have ever made .yet very informative ,❤
I like meeting the owners and hearing the backstory
I'm not a rider but I've learned so much about horses just by watching your videos. Just as you stated, though Pam & Rosemary are informed riders, you have more experience. P&R's work shows even before you started. But It's amazing how you give the rider & horse so much confidence to trust and move on.
Life has a way of humbling us, yet you took it & showed us 😍
The ticking of time is a study your journey learns.
Adapt & move on.
❤✌️☯️
Thank you Tanya and Steve for your hard work I learn a lots from you guys… cheers!
Good outcome but it was hilarious in parts. Glad to see you are only human ❤
Well done guys, my girl Magic won't hack out alone, so we don't get to ride much and would love to try this out. Would love an update in a month or 2 to see how you guys are getting on 😍 Steve do you come to the east anglia region to do demos ?
That was entertaining! Skye was a challenge, but Pam can carry on now.
Well the best wishes to Pam and Rosemary and the gorgeous mare! ❤
Love that you do show everything done xx fantastic job as usual ❤
I’m a lot like Pam, I should be a bit tougher! Good job all around 😊
The Bonanza interlude made me chuckle.
Another great video, nothing scarier than a horse that bolts, it is something I am currently working on and it's hard going
Wow, brilliant session! Thank you!!!
Brilliant video and some humour.
Wonderful video love the balance of humor and seriousness! Always something to learn and benefit from your videos!!!
Much gratitude!!!
😂 That was hilarious!! You are THE man Steve ❤
Always entertaining, I love watching how you get the horse to do what YOU want😊
Brilliantly done Steve you are the best horseman I’ve ever seen…❤❤❤thank you for sharing.
Skye is a beautiful animal ❤❤❤great video Steve…love these people..
OMG i watched to the end, such a compelling episode. ❤
As usual kind determination wins in the end. A lovely pony.
Great job, Steve! I love how you walk extra mile with adding music to different important parts of the video! ❤❤
