Awesome! Like this channel a lot

I have watched a lot of videos on the hackamore. In Australia they're very rarely seen so I have no one to help me. Ive never had a video so clearly and beautifully explained on breaking down using this tool. Thankyou!!!!

Thank you I am going to try it tomorrow.

Agree

Helmets are cool, good job

Beautiful filly-love her conformation

Love your channel

There's a misconception out there is that people say using anything with no bit - hackamores, bitless bridless, etc, is better. It's not actually better for the horse since it can hurt them with the wrong person using it. I never used a hackamore or anything with no bit during my horseback riding lessons - something I truly want to get back into - but I have a common knowledge to know that just because when using something with no bit doesn't mean it's humane for the horse, and there has to be a reason or the training on why a horse is using a hackamore or anything with no bit.

I’ll never forget a woman I know poking fun at her younger self for believing she looked soooo cool and cute when riding without a helmet as a teen. She followed it up with “I’d probably look a lot less cute with a traumatic brain injury” and that has always stuck with me 😅 I wish this was more normalized in the western world, but it’s one person at a time to do so and I’m happy to see it here.

Excellent 👍

Have you ever used mohair mecates? I'm not a cowboy or professional/performance rider. Just pleasure/trail. I love the look and feel of them. Horse hair, even just mane hair, is too prickly for me LOL. Enjoy your videos.

Question from a rider who only has formal education in dressage: is doubling essentially a turn on the hindquarters? If not, what is the difference? And is it performed with only the rein and weight shift, not a direct leg aid as well? I have a Morgan I’m trying to get the AMHA versatility medallions on and these videos have been so helpful as we try out the hackamore and delve into the western disciplines. Thank you :)

Done subscribed keep the content coming

hello Johnny - thanks for this great intro. Can you post your background video? Thats some amazing horsemanship and intriguing obstacles - thanks for the great content! 👍

It's not bullet proof, but it does greatly reduce one risk.

Cada que veo videos como este en el otros paises replican los usos, costumbres, herrameinteas y demas cosas Mexicanas me llena de orgullo ser Mexicano. Me da mucho gusto ver a este muchacho flores que siga conservando los arreos, indumentaria Mexicanos asi como procurar seguir la manera de arriendar caballos a la Mexicana. Que gusto ver que Mexico sea apreciado por su rienda y manera de trabajar los caballos en otros paises. Muy bien Juanito Flores, aqui sigo viendo tus videos y como compartes tus conocimeintos de la rienda Mexicana.

Yes

Nice exercises. Background guitar is fine, but is too loud. Please decrease the volume on the music so we can hear everything you say. Thanks for a very helpful video. Super sweet horse ya got there.❤

Hi Roberto.. I just wanted to share my moment that is 😂 I'm the oldest sister and my sister is getting taller than me.. I can totally relate. Nice vlog buddy.

Hi I'm your new subscriber.. I'll be watching more of your vlog starting today.. so late to find you

Got to meet you at the CRC show a few weekends ago. I was working the gate for the covered arena events. Congrats on the success and keep grinding, your skill with be quickly recognized. I board in Murrieta and would be happy to take a lesson or attend a clinic of yours anytime.

Nice video, new to bosals. Trying to learn to get the most out of my new horse who has been in one for a couple of years

Thanks, my new horse is used to a bosal and i have never used one. Great info.

Economical and informative thankd

Thank you so much

Nice video. Where would you suggest I go to purchase a well balanced spade bit? Thanks for your advice.

What a pretty horse And a helpful tip too, now I want to build a gate to try it with my horse 😂

As someone who has cracked their riding helmet in a fall---aways wear one!

Love this! I wish this was more normalized with western riding. More so especially on horses that are likely to introduce you to the ground. I can just hear all the "cool n punchy" cowboys making fun of a guy wearing a helmet but looking cool wont prevent head injuries. Awesome message! ❤

👏👏👏 I love it when I hear an adult verbalize that logic. I wear how much most of the time, the rare occasion I don't is always a highly calculated occasion, though I live in a county that has one of the largest rodeos in the US plus another Rodeo that's among the largest in our state... and I work with kids in 4-H where helmets are required. It's often a real struggle to get the kids to understand that while many people verbally bash helmets, I've known some top-notch Riders who have touched death door with head injuries. One of them actually was wearing a helmet, but didn't wake up from a coma for 3 weeks. Her helmet was decimated, but if she hadn't been wearing it she would have been dead on impact. One of my older 4 H kids, I've caught not wearing a helmet because according to her she was having a good hair day, she's changed her tune a bit once I helped her realize that if she gets hospitalized with a head injury that beautiful hair will get buzzed off🤷‍♀️ I've ridden many Colts over the years, yeah it might make cooler pictures to skip the helmet but I'm not that arrogant😅

Respect

Smart guy

If yer afraid to get on then yiu arnt done with ground work. Old rancher tought me that the first ride should always be bare back. If you aint comfortable climbing on bare back. Then the horse aint ready. They days of bucjing them out and using them to get cows in the same day are sadly over. Cowboys get paied by the month. Take yer time get it right the first time. Best bucking horse is one that never tried to.

Good choices. Other injuries can happen, but brain injuries can also happen. You’re more likely to heal from other injuries than brain injuries. I give you my thanks as an ER worker who’s seen the worst.

There is nothing cool about brain damage 😮

Been Peeling colts for over 30 years I've only seen about a half a dozen head traumas lots more broken necks punctured lungs busted ribs where the hat keep your mind in the middle the idea is to stay on the damn horse anyway

Get them pants out yo butt dude..

Is that Scott from Heartland?

Intelligence is sexy regardless of how dorky you think you look ❤

😮a bosal and a hacamore are to different things that piece of equipment is a bosal I always use a long single rein

From the clothing changes it look like this session with a partner repeats for a few days before you're solo. Anything specific you're looking for to signal when to make that transition?

Videos on this channel are best, great commentary on what, exactly how, and common mistakes.

Great tip about staying in the spot where the horse gets disturbed. Prevents all that amplification from following them around. You encourage so much relaxation and quiet. Love these detailed observations and descriptions.

I love the looks of that hackamore. Where can I purchase it? Thanks

Thiis was pleasant to watch 😊

Nice. 😊 It drives me nuts to see people pulling their horses from the bit!
