No amount of cash could buy the wisdom you have. Thanks for sharing it with everyone out here. I’ve l learned a-lot from the videos and know Pat’s contribution has had great impact in the horse world.
Thank you Pat I've been watching you now for about 5 years now and I've learned a lot from you
BY FAR the best bit lesson I ever heard concerning bits. I've been fooling with horses for 68 of my 73 years. I have never, I repeat, never had such a good lesson. Thanks!
That was the best explanation of this topic I've ever heard.... thank you.
Thank you for explaining the functions of bits. I learned the importance of the proper fit of the curb strap.
Always love when you talk about bits.
It is always good to revisit a subject. Each time you learn something else. Your a good teacher, something that is rare today. So keep it up.
That missing link snaffle has a 6-8 week wait time to ship! Looks like it's super popular! I definitely will be considering it!
Thank you for Pat and Deb another entertaining and informative video. I love your sarcastic humor.
My dad was a blacksmith, among a lot of other things and you're right, if dad had fire 🔥, some steel and an idea, he would build anything. Love the video.
Watch everything you post and save it to a playlist! I so appreciate the knowledge! If I move forward with the double hip surgery fandango that is planned, after recovery, I'm probably going to sell everything I have, which ain't much; drive out to Cali and see what this ole gal can do to get back on the horse again...and hopefully under your tutilage! I'll be 61 1/2 if I make it thru everything all right and ready to train horses and ride. It's been way too long. Sending much love to you and Deb! Sheri The Organic Pet Lady!
Thanks for the video - always informative. Tabor City, NC
And the master did it again, 😂 very well explained.
excellent video how funny the check on signal or leverage
Very interesting 😊excellent description on how they all work 😮curb strap
Thanks for sharing your experience with us
So incredibly helpful. As always. Thank you
Thank you! Always learn something new every time I watch and listen to Deb & Pat!
OMG thank you so much for this video!! Definitely helped. I had been thinking of the missing link mouthpiece as "straight across" and never got that it has major built-in tongue relief. I'm currently reading Ed Connell's book on bridles and bits, which ties right into this discussion. Thank you again for this video. BF
The big difference is that Connell only talked about the hands and never the seat and legs.
@@PatnDebPuckett I hadn't noticed that, but certainly true! He also differs from Pat in that he started bridle horses in a snaffle, which Pat does not.
@@epona9166 And he and Arnold Rojas didn't get along apparently.
@@PatnDebPuckett I see Arnold Rojas put out 7 books, all of which you prob have. Do you have a recommendation for first book? Or just go in chronological order of publication?
@@epona9166 I think These Were the Vaqueros would be the one to start with. Most of his books are historical in nature. Not really handbooks for horsemanship. But in reading the stories, you can gain insights into how horses were trained and ridden in those days. Rojas and Connell didn't see eye to eye with regard to horsemanship. I believe that Rojas thought that Connell had too much of a Texas style of riding and not a truly Californio style. But this might be just heresay.
PS. I've never fallen asleep watching one of your videos.
Great video! That is a good looking mule you’ve got back there😀 Hope to see him in some future videos!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I love this channel. It has helped me a lot.
I’ve learned a lot from your videos and life time of knowledge. Blessings to you and your family!
Thank you!
Thanks for the video!
Great video. I needed a good nap. Just kidding, I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Pat & Deb, can you point me to the video that explains when to switch from the missing link snaffle into pats western bit? I have both bits and minimal knowledge. Thanks
Another great video Pat and Deb! Always good to review your subject matter with your students. I have both of your bits , love the missing link snaffle. I have been nursing an injury so l haven't been able to try my western bit yet.
Thanks for answering my question from the other day! Another great video Pat and Deb! Are you guys planning any clinics anytime?
Great job !!
Great job on this video try to watch the video you put out your friend from Alabama
Thank you
👏👏👏
Lessons yes please thank you
Mr. Puckett is a National Treasure
Still watching and learning from Vulcan Alberta Canada. Thanks Pat and Deb.
thank you for this. The bit thing is so muddy in my mind. So then I just keep using my snaffle from you. I do have a half breed. But it hangs on my tack wall looking pretty because I am afraid I am going to misuse it on my horses.🙄
👍👍👍
Nice mule! Nice shirt, Pat! What is going on inside a cricket to make the noise?
Very informative lesson. I always learn something . My 27 years old loves his missing link snaffle, and i know that beause when I present him with the bridle, he reaches for the mouth piece. I would love to try him in your western bit . Would that help with getting him into self carriage? Much love from Tatamagouche.
It would help you to ride off of your body rather than off of the horse's mouth and that will help you ride in collection and self carriage.

Yeah! What HE said!
Too much caffeine?
@@PetPrepRadioShowI'll never understand the not hitting the like or dislike button when a video was watched. Why wouldn't you?
This is a very timely discussion for me…. Forgive me but I’d like to get this straight: The port is to a) prevent the horse from positioning its tongue over the mouthpiece and b) as a means of tongue relief and a spade or spoon is a point of contact with the tongue for signaling? In either case of a ported mouthpiece or spade bit, the form is designed so as to lay for the most part parallel to the horses tongue? I’m playing separately with Myler bits and trying to best understand why a horse prefers one ‘form’ over another. As it relates to the function of the curb strap, I’ve heard you mention that you look for roughly a 30 degree deflection for the strap to make contact from its nominal position in the horses mouth. Is that a good general rule of thumb for ported and spooned bits? thanks
“Clear as mud”😂
Keep Babbling
I was watching a video suggesting too help lift he front end and back up with a chicken choker creating a situation where the horse is required work harder and build its body up correctly. What are your thoughts
She is heavy on the forehand and feels like a d5
What in the name of heaven is a chicken choker?
oooo i am far from falling asleep....
Thank you
