Glad to help, Ty. Unfortunately, Low Country Cowboys has been cancelled. The good news is, we have another channel called B1 Horsemanship and a membership website. Check it out and thanks! b1horsemanship.com, Richard
That is a great day......Molly is awesome and you could tell she had learned a lot by the end of the round-up in the last shots of her. Wet saddle blankets are a great tool. I started my ranch horses checking the cows calving in the spring, riding 160 acres of rolling open hills with the odd gully and buckbrush was mind building for them. Man did you take a beating from that wasp! These video are fabulous. Great cinematography and mood, lovely horses and a wonderful sense of family. God Bless and keep them coming.
I think what makes your horses adapt to the ranch work end is they get to live outdoors on a daily basis. It’s not something new, they aren’t locked in a stall and only see the arena.
I live in Belgium and we have a nature reserve where a group of wild Icelandic stallions stand up. We need to catch them by horses, it's really funny and great experience for the horses and riders. Sometimes we need to go through a forest or rivers and sometimes it can take up to 3 or 4 hours to finally have them all catched. Sorry for my bad English.
Best place to train a horse is behind a herd of cows. We always figure a couple rides in the round pen then a few trips out with other horses around close to home then load them and take them to work and turn them into a horse. We get hot but not that hot, if we can get cows moved before 1pm then there is no problem but we are also -30 right now so just a touch North of you. lol
We have a program called Horses Of Warriors. It’s a Combat Veteran program and we show Vets how horses can change our life’s. They know how we feel before we even get to the gate. Horses saved my life. I was going through it and almost did the unthinkable. I asked myself what was the happiest time in my life, it was growing up with horses. Do you think we could come for a visit?
MewukSniper, Your program sounds great! I know how valuable horses can be for people that are having a hard time. Unfortunately, the ranch is not open to visitors as it is owned by a private individual. Thanks for watching and good luck!
I tried to sit on my hands ;) but your comment about a "trail ride" got me going. LOL A good horse is for sure made by doing all the things you're doing with Molly on this cattle round up, but these same sort of things are also what make a true "trail" horse. Nope, not walking down groomed trails with nothing to pick up their feet about. They are made being exposed to mud, creeks/rivers, steep hills, wildlife, dead fall, being caught out in storms and being able to deal with it all while getting you safely back to camp. I've ponied out and broke several colts to the trail, some turning out better than others, but all safe to ride. Right now I have a gelding that I bought off a gal who brought him to a sale here in MN from WY by way of OK. He was supposed to be an experienced, broke ranch gelding that I intended to continue to use for my love of riding out on trails. Long story short, he's not cutting it - over reactive, doesn't care for a bit, likes to bronc and bound around like a rabbit. So much for his "ranch" training. Yup - I'm being smug! LOL I grew up around cattle, so I do know what they're about - hard work. :D
We try to find a job for all of them. Attitude isn’t a problem and, knock on wood, we haven’t had a serious injury in recent memory. Thanks for watching!
I really really enjoy your videos, I’m so glad I stumbled upon them. New subscriber right here 👍🏻 thumbs up from Alberta Canada. We also have a couple videos up on our channels. The 3 legged ranch as well as the bowhiker
@@LowCountryCowboys well the owner has their rules. I dont know why.I grew up on a big ranch with registered Brangus. Never ever had a dog grab a calf. Or better yet one of our baby colts.Those race horse bred foals ain't cheap either. And those dogs like yours ain't had about grabbing calves. My friend had some Black Mouth Curs get off their chain when they were gone and killed a Colonel Freckles grandson. So we know it can happen .
Matthew Gov ....western doesn’t mean stupid you know, rising to the trot or ‘posting’ is easier on the rider and the horse at a long trot. If they were jogging along on in no hurry sitting the trot would be fine. Long trotting to get the job done and cover miles is different.
Hi Matthew Gov, I was taught to post at the trot to save my horses back and to help them to collect in the bridle. Most guys I have been around that ride a lot will post. Good horsemanship is good horsemanship no matter the discipline. Thanks for watching! Richard
Barb Cole, We have some dogs around, but we really don't need them too much. We find that dogs tend too create stress in our mothers cows when they have calves on their sides. I will use my dog on the weaned calves and sometimes on dry cows. Thanks for watching!
Mr. Richard I really enjoyed your video alot. The cameraman did a great job of keeping the camera smooth while at a long trot. Is it just an ordinary camera or is it something thats absorbing some of the movement? Please keep your videos coming.
I can’t believe I’m going to critique this. You obviously have been doing this for quite some time and know a lot about horses cows and ranching in general but it perplexes me as to why you would be double raining a horse that you intend on turning into a ranch/cow horse? There are way too many times that you need to have a hand free to accomplish a task. I have never met, ridden or even seen a ranch horse that isn’t 99% exclusively neck rained. I hate to say it but it seems like you are handicapping this horse and doing it a disservice by not training her the way one would actually use her.
Hi Matthew Pepper, That filly is in the snaffle bit. The snaffle is a 2 reined device. She will stay in a snaffle until she has the equivalent of at least a year's worth of riding. To expect green horse to do a job and to guide one handed is just too much. It's not so much about how she is being trained as much just helping her through the day. She will definitely be ridden one handed or "neck reined" once she is ready. My program takes at least a year to get there. No sense in rushing it, right? Thanks for watching! Richard
Low Country Cowboys thank you for your reply, that makes sense and I want to make it absolutely clear I was in no way questioning your training ability or the horses performance, I just needed more clarification. This was the first video I saw of yours and want to take this opportunity to let you know how much I enjoyed it, I will be watching many more.
Your a great cowboy you help me learn a lot of stuff just by watching your videos thanks again cowboy.

Ya just cant beat ranch life and kids growing up on a ranch.
GOD Bless the Ranchers.
Ur a great horseman richard really enjoy urvidieos richard
Aww little man is a helluva good hand to have around. Molly is an awesome mover!! I think she'll work out.

Hi Fiona C, Thanks so much!
I love this series so much, ur Living my dream!
Kara Equestrian took the words right out of my mouth.....what a life! Love this series.
I love the way you film your videos! Literally feels like I’m watching a tv show
I love these videos, thank you. Handy horses, happy kids and lucky chickens.
I think what makes your horses adapt to the ranch work end is they get to live outdoors on a daily basis. It’s not something new, they aren’t locked in a stall and only see the arena.
Molly is a good looking animal. Always good to have kids involved in ranching, it builds plenty of character and discipline.

Really enjoyed video. Thank you for making the Low Country Cowboys channel.
Hello. Your huge fields, do they have some fence all the way around? And what about wild animals? Such a fencing does not brake their life? Thanks.
I love this channel, we need more of this in America
Beautiful horse, great family life, thanks for your videos, really enjoy them

Jewel and all of her chickens and chicks look happy hope y’all enjoy them
I really want to run a ranch one day but I have absolutly no experince with ranching

Hi Pat, Thanks for watching and commenting! Richard
I watch your movies. You have a charming place. Greetings from Poland
Beautiful horse
Mac will have to grow into those sunglasses!
Molly was awesome. I bet she was ready for her grain and sleep.
Awesome landscape and I would work for you, because I love horses and ride and I love the countryside, unfortunately I live in Italy
Thank you for the video! Looking forward to the next one! That bee sting looked brutal, ouch!!☹️
What happens to the horses that don't make the cut due to injury or additude?
We try to find a job for all of them. Attitude isn’t a problem and, knock on wood, we haven’t had a serious injury in recent memory. Thanks for watching!
I love theese video god bless you guys that kid was soe much fun we watch you guys from chicago
Snakes? What kind of snakes eat chicken? What can you possibly do to keep the snakes out?
I really really enjoy your videos, I’m so glad I stumbled upon them. New subscriber right here 👍🏻 thumbs up from Alberta Canada. We also have a couple videos up on our channels. The 3 legged ranch as well as the bowhiker
Wish I could have your job insed of school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you sttuck out to gather the cows the 1stvthing I wondered was,Where are the Dogs?
Hi Trey. Our ranch has a "no dog" policy around cows with calves. Seems to work best for us. Thanks for watching! Richard
@@LowCountryCowboys well the owner has their rules.
I dont know why.I grew up on a big ranch with registered Brangus. Never ever had a dog grab a calf.
Or better yet one of our baby colts.Those race horse bred foals ain't cheap either.
And those dogs like yours ain't had about grabbing calves.
My friend had some Black Mouth Curs get off their chain when they were gone and killed a Colonel Freckles grandson.
So we know it can happen
.
Cool shades!!!
I need a new horse mine died a few year back havent thought about get another till today!!
Hey I was wondering how come you guys do riding trot?? I thought western riders only sat
Matthew Gov ....western doesn’t mean stupid you know, rising to the trot or ‘posting’ is easier on the rider and the horse at a long trot. If they were jogging along on in no hurry sitting the trot would be fine. Long trotting to get the job done and cover miles is different.

how long did they work
We wanten more videocasset!!
Pleace
Ok ok.
When can we expect the next video?😊
How come you don’t have any dogs to help herd the cattle?
Barb Cole, We have some dogs around, but we really don't need them too much. We find that dogs tend too create stress in our mothers cows when they have calves on their sides. I will use my dog on the weaned calves and sometimes on dry cows. Thanks for watching!
Very nice video
how do i teach my 4 year old horse to neck rain
Now I know why my horse couldn’t back out of the trailer.
The coop needs laying boxes.
Done!
You look a lot like Grant Cardon
😂😂😂😳
A hawk has killed one of my chickens before, not fun at all
Love yor bog
Great videos you make, congrats. If I where younger and single I will go and work with you guys, for free.
Post more video
Leave it to a rancher to start from scratch !
I hit a ground nest of yellow jackets with a weed eater once. Not fun... Love your videos. :)
Haha he glorified herding cattle a little bit. Finding the groups is the hardest. Don't matter if you have 50 or 500.
What a good girl
Where is your farm located🤔
👇🏼
Allendale County, SC. Thanks for watching!
@@LowCountryCowboys: Better correct John as this is a ranch not farm. lol
Mr. Richard I really enjoyed your video alot. The cameraman did a great job of keeping the camera smooth while at a long trot. Is it just an ordinary camera or is it something thats absorbing some of the movement? Please keep your videos coming.
Hi John, It's called a gimbal. It stabilizes the camera. Richard
@@LowCountryCowboys thank you. I will have to check that out.
He's definitely country, his lips barely move when he's talking..
I like to gork for free in a ranch whith horses
DON'T YOU GUYS TEACH THE HORSES TO NECK REIN ANYMORE ?
