@@monicasmith8082 I get all my ground work on them as yearlings. Backing, turning, stopping, side passing, standing tied, some ground driving. Depending on how big they are. Keep every session short. Then I throw them out to pasture. I show so if the vet says I’m good to go. Then I start them. If the vet says wait for whatever reason then I wait. I don’t like to make the training sessions long for them. They get bored and I don’t want that. By the time it’s they are ready for the saddle. They know everything. Just have to fine tune it in the saddle. So if I have to wait til they are 3. I don’t have to really do anything. As all the ground work has already been done. I just sit back and watch them grow in the pasture.

Thank you. Frank and the gang do there best. I always reward them the best I can. I do talk to em as well. Oddly enough lol. I always say good job. Or I’m sorry I did such and such. I believe in rewarding and communication goes a long ways. 🙂

Your welcome.

It’s one of the best feelings in the world.

Ya I’m not big into the hollering either. It is extremely hard to not use your hands and jerk on em. I honestly struggle with that. But I can say the more you practice the better it gets. It is definitely fun that’s for sure. It does help if you have a trained horse. Green horses like the one in my video can definitely make one form bad habits with your hands and everything else. But I love training them. It’s very rewarding I find.

They are definitely very beautiful. I get excited every time I hear they will be local.

Thank you. I’ll definitely check him out. 🙂

Thanks

Yep I agree. She has it down on the lunge line and at a walk. She ground ties pretty good. Stands all day. She ain’t perfect. But we are getting there. Do you any recommendations on how you teach the stop?

Lmaoo. Pretty much. Usually he ain’t that crazy. But boy can he move when he wants to. Frank if I don’t ride him everyday he’ll get real spicy under saddle. So ya gotta lunge him first lol. I like that. No cookies for you lmao.

Thank you. I'm trying to move up thats for sure. Always busy. These next couple months are going to be insane. Just to get ready for the april show. I was going to put them on my saddle. But boy are they big on my feet. So probably wont put them on.

I’ll get a video of step by step for ya. From ground to saddle. 🙂

@@lisabliss79 That would be incredible!! I love your style, it's similar to what I'm already doing, but better! 😆

Thank you.

I dunno about fun lol. I do know I love when that lady puts on those little practice sorting’s. I’ve never laughed or had such a good time in a long time. That’s the most fun I have. Besides roping. The real sorting shows I go to is ok. Long story short. There’s folks that take that stuff way way to seriously. I’m in it to have a good time. But those folks don’t see it like that. I was in the same boat as you. But I never got invited. Finally went out and bought a trailer. There are sortings down your way. Are you on Facebook at all? There are groups that post those kinda things. As well as ropings. And if your ever up this way. Your always invited to come ride or used one of my horses to go sorting.

He really has. It’s a Dutton butterfly shank bit with the smooth mouth piece. That’s all I use on Clyde and Frank. I do have other styles. But they seem to like that one better. I actually have to call and order one for Clyde. Being he has a smaller mouth. Franks is just to big for him. I haven’t really been doing anything different with Clyde. Same stuff really. If it’s not to cold after work I’ll make a video of what I been doin with him.

I’m sorry to hear about your lease on your horse. If you were closer I’d let ya lease one of mine for as long as you’d like. I maybe putting Frank up for sale. Clyde is turning out to a heck of a sorting horse. Frank can sort. But he needs a lot of metal maturing to do. They are night and day. I’ve never rode a draft before. How tall is he? Yep I think that bike idea was the best thing ever. I wonder how heeling would be Lolol. Got any more other roping ideas?

That draft I’ve been ridings name is Teddy and he’s got that draft horse mane, bangs and tail, long and beautiful. I call him Teddy Van Halen! He’s about 16 hands, you can mount him from the ground, but ya better stretch out first! He’s just BIG and all muscle! I never expected his gaits to be sooo smooth! Next roping idea! Rope off of Teddy Van Halen! Times might not set any records, but all eyes would be watching! Man I’m just crying for attention. I’m working on a bay gelding that just came off a ranch in Florida and is supposed to be broke and super gentle. The hand that was working him was an older gentleman and the horse is supposed to be one of those been there done that kind of horse. Maybe I can rope off him and put the mountain bike up! Got to go, later!

I have them posted under my community tab. 🙂

Awesome, thank you!!!

Your welcome.

Hey you. I was startin to worry about ya. I’m glad your doin alright. I heard those are nice pads. I’ll have to look into em. I know those relentless saddles look nice. The last couple days have been in the 70s here. But before that it was snowing lol. I hate the cold as well. I’ll be sure to tell her. Take care.

It’s definitely harder than it looks. I’m still learning. Your supposed to use legs more than hands. But it’s extremely hard when you focus on the cow and making sure you go at it the right way. You gotta peel them out instead of sending them all at one. Which I’m still learning. Lol. I have the vet coming out in 2 weeks to check him out. I know I was in his face a lot. But just wanna make sure he’s not hurting anywhere. Because of the crow hoping he was doin. He’s definitely turning out to a good horse. I ain’t sure who’s my favorite. Him or Clyde. Lol.

Lol I can so see that. You should make videos. I’d watch them. I wonder how they taught them to stay close. That would be kinda neat if they didn’t leave. Thanks. 🙂 the show was this past Saturday. Everything is finally loading on here.

Thanks. I’ll have to try that. I was goin to use a clay bar on it. But that would take way to long.

Thanks. I’m glad your feeling better as well. I’m almost better. Probably about 95%. Lmao why can I see your horse saying. Nope please try again. I like warm bottled water lmao. What kind of soup do you use when you wash him. I think you’ve might have told me. But can’t remember. Yep definitely a good call. Now if I had Clyde. He’d just walked. He’d been like trot and lope what’s that lol. Thanks. I’m tryin something new. Just random videos to throw in between horses. Dunno if it’ll be a good thing or a bad thing. Lol.

@@lisabliss79 it’s whatever the stable provides, I think I saw a big jug of mane and tail shampoo. Shorty the horse says, don’t worry about it! You have to trick him into the wash rack. Putting him in crossties in the wash rack is like putting a noose around a hanging victims neck! He’s certain your about to water board him!

@@mingram008 lmao that’s funny as heck. I know my friend Clayton will let go horse eat grass while he washing it. He says it helps em with standing. I ain’t so sure about that lol.

@@lisabliss79 sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!

@@mingram008 that you do.

Thanks. I wanted to do it in the church parking lot. Told Angela if I fall it wouldn’t have to dig rocks out. But she was like nope lol. Deal. Next time I drive down south I’ll broke the bike and sled lol.

Yep you guessed it. I agree. They can definitely have it back. It sucks not having the energy to do anything. Hopefully you will get back to normal soon. This no energy is for the birds. It took forever to get that video to upload. I have more to post. But it takes forever. I think it’s because of how long they are. It’s been a little bit since I posted. As I was focusing on Frank and the last show. But I’ll get em posted. 🙂

Dang that sucks. I hope you get better soon. Hate hearing when folks are sick. He definitely knows work from play that’s for sure. He’s 3, he’ll be 4 next yr. Lol I bet your horse is a ladies man lol. I haven’t tried ShowSheen, is it similar to that cowboy magic stuff? I haven’t made anything lately. Angela’s dad was real sick and ended up passing away Sunday. So been trying to help her with that. But no fear I’m still going to make that bike roping video lmao.

@@lisabliss79 man I hate to hear about Angela’s dad passing. We’re so sorry for their loss. ShowSheen is probably the same thing as magic, I think they may be silicone based. I saw a lady who mixed her own detangle spray with baby oil and Listerine. Can’t imagine how that smelled! Well, try to enjoy the day and we will talk later. ✔️

Aww lol. Yep y’all are much hotter than we are lol. Sweatin isn’t the word for that Texas heat. Lol.

Lmao oh I wish I was there to have seen that. To bad that cop couldn’t help ya out and get ya going with ropin. Now you have me wanting to try it. Imma record it to lol. I mean your right tho. We gotta use what we have. Even tho ya don’t have a horse doesn’t mean ya can’t practice. Heck get all that practice in and heck one day I’ll team rope with ya. I can definitely get some things made of of Clyde man. 🙂 hopefully he’ll be a good roping horse. Got my fingers crossed.

@@lisabliss79 I’ve been taking riding lessons over in Ft Worth for about 3 months now. Heck most of the time I’m just paying to ride their horses twice a week. I’m totally addicted to horses now. You know how school horses are, most of the time you can’t pay um to call a trot. They have one, a giraffe of a gelding that is about 12 and was a ex barrel racer. I learned what all go and no whoa was! He won’t stand still, won’t walk, just run at every thing wide open! They say he’s a good trail horse if they put the right person on him but walk into the arena with him and the fuse is lit! A couple of the trainers always say, Man, I hate that horse, but you got to love his spirit. I learned to bend a horse and do circles with that one for about 45 min. Was wobbling when I got off him! Crockett the rocket I call him. He responds to cues faster than any other horse they have there! The big plan is to get my horsemanship skills up and either buy or lease one and board it. Yea, roping off a mountain bike didn’t quite work out! Keep in contact and we’re waiting for the next videos! Michael

@@mingram008 now that you say that. I think you might have mentioned something about doing that. He sounds like he’d be a blast to ride tho. Glad your able to work with him. Sounds like your on your way to being a good horseman. Keep up the good work. I love a horse that has a spirit like that. Just something about them. Will do for sure. 🙂

He definitely is. After last night I’m seriously thinking about keeping him. I’ll post that video today. 🙂
