"that's just the way I talk...so get over it"....I love it! Great video though. It's good that you bring up about the bumping, to many have the yanking part down pat!
The bridge of the nose is key- because when perfected it causes the horse to flex sideways at the poll. This compresses one side of the horse and stretches the other side. This also in turn, helps to promote true basculed collection with the horses back lifted.. This is good. best Bruce Peek
I can get along pretty well with most horses, and I can tell people exactly what I’m doing now and why, but the ¿demeanor? With which I go about my business is what gets me farther with an animal than anything I actually do to or for the animal. “Indifferent at all times” might be the best way to describe how I approach the horse
This was full of valuable information; just watching your hand position as you walked us through the ride. I learn so much from watching you in all your videos, each one provides more pieces to draw on for my own. Would you be able to provide more thoughts on the fiodor just had one made by Mr. B Black I would be very interested in what you have to say . Lisa from Alberta
I've been a fan of the breed since I was a kid! If he's starting off light in a hackamore, that's a plus. Sometimes they can be too smart for their own good! 😅
He is the only one I have ever rode. I have seen some of the more modern smaller Morgans and they all seem squirrly but maybe the riders are lol. I sure like him and he is smart as a whip. Old timers always told me to wait on Morgans and Arahbs till they are 5. Seemed to work on him.
Thank you for this. If only the old-time cowboys made videos. Do you have an email? I have a PFD that I think you will get a kick out of it is from a book a horse trainer wrote in 1899 Professor J.S. Carrol.
@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt yes, 310's "purple caos" have one as well... Branding and doctoring, a little light for eastern Colorado wind though... I like their ropes...
No , walking with a counterbend is not an advanced dressage maneuver. It is a moving - proper, turn on the haunch,- actually a pirouette- from the French, as in French classical dressage. Bruce Peek
Bret I have noticed in your videos that when you a turning a horse in a smaller turn, circle that you really shift your weight to the outside of the turn. It looks like you move your shoulders out as well as shifting your seat. I have two questions, 1 is this an accurate observation? and 2 do you put a lot of weight in the outside stirrup to do this? When I shift my weight to the outside I always seem to shift my saddle and start to feel like I am losing my balance as the saddle shifts.
Yes an accurate observation for sure. I shift my weight and try to get out of my horse's way. I dont really put more weight in the other stirrup I dont think but maybe a little. As far as your saddle slipping, tighten the cinch and put a breast collar on.
Nothing really that different, I want to bump a hackamore while the snaffle works off a pull. Snaffle says "be here" hackamore says "dont be here anymore". Other than that I lift a rein on a hackamore more than I do on a snaffle because it is a leverage device and works off the rotation of the the nose button and that's the best way to manipulate the leverage. Snaffle has zero leverage and zero rotation so I can pull on it from any angle and it does basically the same thing.
The hackamore was not meant to be a leverage device. What the hackamore does is assist you in implementing the principle of bend which is the basis of all learning, Watch Clinton do bending exercises from the ground and it will come to you what the principle of bend really is and how you can use is while mounted to help you to get collection. Bend to a stop.
Sorry to burst your bubble my friend but the hackamore is and always has been meant to be used as a leverage device. Its the only way it can work. Leverage does not mean that you can't teach a horse to bend, look at that big ogre Im riding, he has a ton of bend for his size and conformation. I have a world of respect for Clinton both professional and personaly and I can promise you that not only would he agree with me on the principals of a hackamore he would also agree that what he did was aimed at a completely different class of rider and Horseman. I thank you for your comment and your critic but I would ask you to be a little more open minded about how things work.
You’re knowledge is a world of wealth to those who want to obtain the same! Thank you!
Than you, glad you enjoyed it

Well done. When someone finally can fully explain the magic of horse training. That fella will be a very rich man
Well that's not my goal but I wouldn't mind

Cool deal
I used to have a good friend named Joaquin he was a hell of a bronc rider

Are you taking the slack out of the rein and then it’s a bump? And are you timing bumps with the feet?
The horse should time his feet to my bump. The horse works for me I don't work for the horse.

Davistraining83@gmail. I would love to see it.
Great information as expected.... Is that a purple caos hanging on your saddle?
Caos? I dont savy. I have a purple rope, its one of those 3:10 ropes, works good.
@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt yes, 310's "purple caos" have one as well... Branding and doctoring, a little light for eastern Colorado wind though... I like their ropes...
Oh that's what its called. A friend gave it to me. I like it. Yeah a little light in the wind but Im a fair weather cowboy anyway.@@danfields3341

What are you doing differently with your hands and cues in the hackamore that you wouldn't be doing in the snaffle?
Nothing really that different, I want to bump a hackamore while the snaffle works off a pull. Snaffle says "be here" hackamore says "dont be here anymore". Other than that I lift a rein on a hackamore more than I do on a snaffle because it is a leverage device and works off the rotation of the the nose button and that's the best way to manipulate the leverage.

Needs to have a pretty good handle before going full up in the bridle.
oh yeah
He,s agitated,switching his tail.
That was one of the last warm days of early fall and the flies were really bad
Still don't know what the mystery is. Or what this tool is.
Well keep watching I will try to fix that
