- This video was shot over the course of the morning session of a horsemanship clinic we held in Oildale CA. There are lots of little things, pieces of the puzzle, that can be gleaned from this video. You might see yourself in one of the riders. You might discover something you've been doing wrong...or right! Stay tuned for the Afternoon Session where Pat rides all the horses. As always, thank you for watching!

The best horsemanship video I've ever seen.
Two of my favorite quotes from this one. "Your horse will be so happy to have someone in his life that gives him clear direction without resentment"
Outstanding instruction. Wish I could have been there. Most people have a problem listening. Just listen to him and try to learn something.
So much here that will advance any rider. Release. Breathe. Communicate with their feet. They get the small things, they just need a consistent leader. Outstanding.
Love these clinics with real people and real horses. not the finished horse. Thank you
God, some of these people don't listen well.They are the ones bringing their horses to this clinic. I don't have my own horse yet, but I would listen to my instructors pretty much word by word with intent. I will definitely watch this video as well when I start riding my own horse. Thankfully I haven't ridden long enough to form bad habits, but long enough with trainers to know how to ride balanced and comfortably.
It's tricky when you are leaning something new and you're on the spot with an instructor and your horse is trying to learn something new. These riders seem very green.
@@dianawilson13 and very lippy! He ain’t there to have a gossip with them but some of them just don’t shut up!
Gotta love the I don't have a horse but this is what I would do comment..easy to say when your not in the moment
@@lisaburroughs7847 well guess what? I don't own a horse, but I work with my neighbor's horses on a daily basis. I was able to teach their green horses to do these with ease... so there
And update: I have my own horse now, and she didn't know anything about sidepassing, being soft, etc. She had a very rushy trot and would push into the bridle. 3 months later, I can get her to sidepass over logs, and even sidepass in a circle while her front hooves are in a tire. Trot is very smooth and slow, and I can get her to slow down with my seat and voice. I can also maneuver her around objects while going backwards. She can be ridden easily in just a halter as well
just hilarious you have the nerve to assume that I wouldn't perform any better if I were at the clinic too. You don't know me, my ability to take instructions, and my ability to train.
Patience with people is harder to do then with horses any givin day.
This was good. Really looking forward to part 2.
Loved every minute of that. I'll probably watch it 20 more times. Thank you
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing this.
I just stumbled upon this video. It is The 😮Best rider training video Pat has ever produced.
My hats off to you bud.
I love this man's style of teaching :)
Thank you Pat for the excellent instruction, I particularly liked the transformation that came over the black bay Sancho when you began riding and I'm looking forward to watching you ride the other horses in the afternoon session.
Thank you Deb for such excellent audio and visual quality even when a freight train rumbles through the clinic.
Happy Fourth of July!
thankyou, thankyou, thankyou a thousand times thankyou from alabama.
Great video Pat the lady on the little mare in the hackamore nice horse!!
I Thank you and my horses thank you for making it so clear and fun to really understand.
I really enjoy watching all your videos. A life long equestrian trained in English and Dressage. However, were I grew up in Hills of eastern orange county I have ridden trail for years. 2 years ago I inherited my Quarter / paint Gelding " Tucker" from a horse trainer who passed away unexpected. He is western, watching your lessons has refreshed knowledge on working with Tucker, and I was
surprised & hooked when I saw you taught riding with your seat and legs. So Many Thanks to you . I would like to participate in a clinic in the near future. Thank You !!!!
So much great information! 😍
This is so worth my time. Thank you Pat. I can’t wait to get up tomorrow, and work some more.
Kudos to the people for not being offended. It's hard for people to comply with constructive criticism. Pat displayed a lot of patience and did a good job with making it black and white for the people as he taught the people to do the same with their horses. One thing that I like to do is to saddle a horse and let him just hang out in the corral for hours. Walking about freely and sometimes tied to the hitching rail. The saddle needs to be a part of the horse and not an anxiety trigger
I absolutely love the way you break everything down. you're a fantastic teacher. with the worried black horse, would you do any ground work to help it before you address the riding?
Love your teaching
Hopefully I’ll be able to meet you
That girl wants to argue with you. No Bueno!
so glad to have been made aware of you! great stuff!!!
Thank you for breaking all steps down and with the breath - - good teaching also saying Black & White too helps . . . Grateful
He is old school! I love it.
Ohhh, Bakersfield CA! I grew up in Rosedale.
Great success w my mare on these exercises! Thanks Pat and Deb!
Love your training videos thank you so much! I try and learn something horse related everyday!
I am loving this video. Breathing is something I forget to do. Great to know the importance of correct breathing. Oddly enough I was just reading a non horse article that suggested we do not breath deep enough at any time. Just one more thing being around horses gas taught us about life. I have an off topic question about horse keeping. How do you feel with the heat and keep horses comfortable. I live in Michigan we rarely have extreme heat but we do occasionally. My horses have plenty of shade but the deer flies and horse flies are terrible. They have about 5 acres 3/4 of which is shaded. Today I went to check on the. They were standing in the sun . They do not have to and I am sure they move around I have even seen th get in the pond. But what is your advice about horse keeping in heat.
I dont even own a horse but I've ridden a few, many times. I wish I had seen your work years ago
One of your best! I will be referring to this video many times! Sharing your knowledge with the next generations is so important and many thanks for it.
To me, the back cinch on that nervous black horse is way too loose. If he happens to kick at a fly on his belly, he could get a hoof caught and with his worried personality, that would be a really bad wreck. I don't understand why people use a back cinch and leave it that loose. It serves no purpose that way.
it def. is too loose, normally you want it snug enough to have one finger or two between the back and the belly..
So much to learn and refine, will be trying these exercises, thank you so much:)
Fantastic
Wow this was fantastic! It’s very clear instruction when you see several examples of what could happen, and all the horses were a good mix of different energies. You are such a gifted teacher. Thankyou for taking the time to do this! I have watched all your videos and applying them to my riding.
From Dandridge, TN (right outside of Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge)
This is one of the best instructions I've seen hands down! Thanks for posting. Can you try to video from multiple angles? It would help the viewer to see what the rider is doing wrong when they are being corrected.
Unfortunately, we don’t have a full camera crew. Just little old me!
@@PatnDebPuckett Your doing a great job! I couldn't see the leg que's, but I did find your video on leg que's so all is well.
Its like Meditation but with horses when you learn to breath during all this. Being mindful and having that feel . Least thats what i think but what do i know 🤷🏻♀️. Something like that... 😊
Excellent
Thank you so much for sharing this with us all!!
Oh my goodness! I love you so much! No disrespect Mrs. Puckett.
Such a great teacher ! Too bad France is that far away. I wish I could ride & learn with you
Mr Pat was over whining and dogs..love his straight to the point approach 🤣
Awesome 👌thanks
Hi..this is awesome!..i live very close to Oildale..i missed this opportunity to get some great knowledge from this man.👍..
I live in Bakersfield,California..
Any idea of any future clinics around this area?..thank you !👌
Wow, these seem like SUPER green riders. Wow.
Good instructions.
I wish new riders would leave the spurs at home. I also hope that some information can pass to riders who are larger in stature should ride bigger horses. I enjoy the instruction though. Reminds me of my dad
OMGosh! Where can I find you schedule?? I’m near Visalia and I want to come to a clinic as soon as my knee replacement heals up!!

27 times to break a habit at least. But great video.
Don’t give me a rash I did not bring my gold bond powder, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Laughed so hard my face hurt
Good job teaching beginners to release.
Can you tell me more about the breed of horse your sitting on , why you like them so much,
That particular horse is a quarter horse/draft cross. We like horses that are built on the hindquarter instead of like many modern quarter horses that are built downhill.
Could you do an explanation of the different mouthpieces? I.e. frog, cathedral, mona lisa, curb. And an explanation of what horse/when you would choose to use each?

I would like to get Pats thoughts on spurs he uses and what his thoughts are on spurs
We always ride with spurs for safety sake. If we need to get moving to avoid a wreck, they are our insurance. In horsemanship, they are always there to back up what we ask with our seat and calf. The horse learns not to ignore the rider’s seat and leg because the spur will engage if he does. If you have short legs, you should ride a dropped spur. If you have long legs, you should ride a straight or upturned spur. Use them as a tool, not a weapon.
@@PatnDebPuckett I understand that because I grew up having that drilled in my head( seat of my pants) when I was a little kid. I use a small blunt clover spur when breaking 3 year olds so if things go flying apart no real harm can be done to the horse or me when I come down. I was looking for his likes and kind he uses. I live in Crewe Virginia and his teachings is like my fathers. But as you know I am a long way from your range
Brian Midkiff Pat likes a heavy spur that sits flat on the spur counter of his boot. He has a set of spurs that have fewer points for dull sided horses and another set of spurs that have a lot of points for his bridle horses. Aside from that he likes a spur strap that doesn’t have buckles made out of a light piece of leather that will break if it gets hung up on something. Selecting a set of spurs is something that has to be done with the size of the horse (depth of girth) and the length of the rider’s legs in mind. Right now, Pat uses plain Jeremiah Watt spurs but he had to grind off some of the ornate parts so they would rest flat on his spur counter. I, on the other hand, found a really cool old set of spurs at a gear show in Santa Ynez that are a vulgar display of wealth! But they fit my leg and suit my style. So there you go. Hope that helps you.
@@PatnDebPuckettthanks and keep up the great job on all the videos I really enjoy hearing and learning from such a great horseman. No brag just good common horse since. That's what I like about yall.
You’re gonna need some Blue Star ointment after dealing with these non listeners lol. You make more sense than Sally Swift!
Hello from Chile. I would like to attend a clinic. Do you borrow horses? I want to learn the manage of the reins.
We do have horses we can provide students who travel here without their own horses.
i don't understand the reasoning behind leaning forward while asking haunches to move over (or did he explain but wasn't on tape?). This can be done keeping the seat neutral with leg, or seat and leg together. Makes it look complicated, unnatural and awkward..
If we want the horse to move his hindquarters, we want to displace our weight so that it’s easier for the horse. Displacing your weight to the fore and hind tells the horse which part of his body you want him to move and allows you to let your leg hang in a more neutral position. Once the horse understands, you can be more subtle with your movements.
@Pat & Deb Puckett ah that makes sense, thank you! Watching from near Vancouver BC Canada!
omg i can't look at this video for more than 5 minutes. He says release and they still put pressure on the horse. Does this people not know what release mean for horses. It is like you did the job and even when they just put 1 foot behind them. No they just put more pressure on them and pull harder. No wonder this horses look confused in what they doing because they don't get the release of pressure.
Blachly Oregon, Pacific Northwest. Too much grass.
That young horse the issue is snaffle pain. Change the bit and he will relax.
Habit....there's a group on Tuesday....lmao
Why the hell is the guy on the paint horse wearing spurs!?!?!?
Is that Prieto?
No. That’s Grasshopper.
@@PatnDebPuckett 👍 I see! Hey, changing the subject, but thanks to you, after watching these parts one and two, I got the tiniest, barest glimpse of having a real horse. Hearing Pat's voice in my head, telling me to "move her hindquarters to the left one step!" We did it!!! This skeleton business works!!!
What kind of bit is pitiful?in paint horse ?
A correction bit.
That black horse who champed constantly was super worried about being ridden, I'm surprised his owner felt safe to ride him in that frame of mind. He really needed to learn to just relax first before anything else. He seemed on the verge of a meltdown the whole time, and you can't teach horses much when they're that worried
That was a 13 year old horse that had spent his life in a pasture until recently. The young lady had 3 rides on him. She’s a very talented up and coming horse woman.
@@PatnDebPuckett Well, she must be :) Thanks for replying
@@kidstuff44555 I have a 12 yr old mare that does that also. She is the best trail horse you have ever seen. You could put a 10 year old on her in the mountains and she will never make a mistake.
Pat and Deb, you always do s fantastic job presenting a positive video. Thank you. I just have to say that if I watched that horse, the back cinch, the behavior of a race horse and now to be told it has been out to pasture for 13 years I would not waste another bale of hay on it. Sorry but there always is a new crop of colts coming on.
John Head I guess that’s not your decision to make. This is a young lady trying to learn as much as she can as a horseman. She will no doubt do her practice her trade on a variety of horses. Some will fail and some will be a success. How do you think Pat got all of the experience he has?
horse is screaming pain in the bit!!!! some horseman he can't even sense that.. the horse needs to have its teeth checked, chomping like that isn't good.. could have tmd/tmj issues..
Clearly you’ve never heard of a cricket. Look it up.
😂🥊🏁
I feel sorry for that dark horse with the "big girl" using both hands . She's hurting her horses' mouth ! She'll never be a good horseman because she thinks she already knows everything. POOR HORSE.....
I disagree. You don’t know the whole story on the young lady or the horse. The fact that she got in the clinic shows her willingness to learn. I think that we do a lot of judging and we really shouldn’t. We used to be taught that if we didn’t have anything nice to say, we shouldn’t say anything at all. Remember how you were as a teenager and rejoice that this young lady is riding a horse, she is polite, and she isn’t on drugs.
@@PatnDebPuckett O.K. I take it back . I was watching the horses mouth and it looked painful to me.
