I'm not a fan of bits, or people who beat the shit out of their horses to win. But seeing her stop everything when Baby Flo fell and decided to pet her and walk her off instead of trying to run her more, or kicking yelling throwing her helmet, THAT is a true rider. The horse ALWAYS comes first I don't care If I have to lose every competition.
Hali Rice I agree every horse is different in training, riding, disipline etc. I will always no matter what horse I get I will always ride is halter, and bitless bridle. And as for your horse I do not doubt you are keeping the horse's best interest in mind. Have soft hand, have effective ground work so the lightest tilt of the reins the horse understands so you don't have to be pulling the horse's head to your thigh. Any horse no matter what you use, if you use the tack poorly, the horse will always get hurt, in halter or bit. Good luck to you and your beautiful horse. ^__^
I agree and wish everyone took care of their horses the same way she did. Home town barrel racers are complete hell in barrel racing. By anyways ALWAYS care for the horse before the sport, ribbons, and yourself. Without the horse the riders would be nothing in these sports. I had a few falls with my mustang ( yes I run barrels with a mustang ) I personally would've gotten off and checked him up myself real fast and walk/ lead him back to the vets. I cant rise my horses knowing they possibly hurt themselves. But still props to her!
The people who force their horse to keep running after falling are horrible. I hate it when people do that. The first lady was very respectful of her horse and stopped. THAT right there is a true rider and horse lover.
Lela Biekert The problem is, people, probably people like you, want to do these things for the money, not for the love of their horses or trying to get them better.
Madeleine Damiani Bling is the horse at 10:22 that has done super well for this girl. She (Bling) died about a year ago, can't remember why - I had found it on google.
I'm just watching this now I'm a bit late but god when Babyflo fell that must have been awful for Fallon. And having another fall last month with Babyflo it's so unfortunate but bound to happen.
I see it all the time. My horses love to barrel race and can't wait to go in, but I make them stay calm until we are in the alley. If they don't love it, they won't be good. Also, when you see "whipping", they are just being tapped, and in my case, they aren't even touched with the crop. I just wave it close to their butt.
don't do it !! it's absolutely cruel !! these horses are run to the ground and they are kicked violently and they are using crops, bad enough they have bits !! horrid to do this to a horse
Nope, but it's invitation only. In general barrel racing events are open to any breed. I've seen huge Belgian horses come to the games day type barrel races where everyone is there to practice or just have fun. But when you get up to the high level/professional level, then you have to qualify to race. AQHA tend to do well because of how they are bred and built, but people also run lots of Appendix and some Appies. Depends on the horse, but athletic, turny as gritty as hell help a lot!
How come the riders where kicking their horses so hard? And where the riders whipping the horses when they ran back "home" I wouldn't know because I do hunter jumping
Kendyl Thompson A lot of times, it looks harder than it really is. When you kick big, the first thing to come back on the horse is your calf. That absorbs a lot of the impact, and your feet and spurs don't have as much force behind them. And yes, they were popping the horses with an over and under. They're most commonly made of leather, so they make quite a noise that urges the horse forward. As someone who's hit myself with mine more times then I can count, it isn't nearly as bad a it looks.
Can't we just ride normally, be with them and love them for the noble, generous souls they are?? .....No because its all about , competition, winning and money and ego and bullsh*t!!! Poor horses. :(
bits and crop whipping and kicking and running a horse right in to the ground risking severe ankle injuries that would have it put down...this is clearly animal abuse.. i rode horses all my life...i thought bits and crops were horrid ...and here they are running the creatures right to the ground and wacking them when they fall !
did that person just hit the horse in the head for a fall at 1:40 !!??? and the man tearing at the horse's mane and all the violent kicking and crop use ? this makes me so upset !!!
You may not know, but every one of these people are damaging their horses ribs by star fishing, and let’s not even talk about the bits! They all are terrible riders and need to go through the basics again.

lilkittyanime I agree! But my horse requires a bit because how hot she gets

Yes! that gave a like but the rest seemed... abusive

wannabe pictureperfect , some barrel racers can be abusive but these pros aren't abusive whatsoever.
The people who force their horse to keep running after falling are horrible. I hate it when people do that. The first lady was very respectful of her horse and stopped. THAT right there is a true rider and horse lover.
You guys are just cry babies. Horses are naturally lovable. If Their rider does something they might not like, they dont hold grudges like you.
CayleeAndHaley1234 yeah Fallon loves her horses. I am the same i don't race then if they fall
Lela Biekert The problem is, people, probably people like you, want to do these things for the money, not for the love of their horses or trying to get them better.
Excuse me! I was not saying anything about money. I barrel race because i like it. My horse hates it. But if hes not feeling it we dont race. Got it
she wacked the horse to the side of it's head after it fell and how is running a horse to the ground not abusive ???
I love Fallon so much. she and Baby Flo are perfect together.
Thanks for sharing this! I used to be the photographer for the CCA's and miss seeing this.

Anyone think about the loss of bling?!?!?!😭😭😭
R.I.P Bling :(
So sad to hear of Blings passing... 😢

Madeleine Damiani Bling is the horse at 10:22 that has done super well for this girl. She (Bling) died about a year ago, can't remember why - I had found it on google.
RIP bling, you will be missed......
I'm just watching this now I'm a bit late but god when Babyflo fell that must have been awful for Fallon. And having another fall last month with Babyflo it's so unfortunate but bound to happen.

YES, THANK YOU for uploading this! Will you be able to upload the second round tomorrow, please??
I've got a small question,has anyone seen a barrel horse calmly or fairly calmly walk into the arena?
I see it all the time. My horses love to barrel race and can't wait to go in, but I make them stay calm until we are in the alley. If they don't love it, they won't be good. Also, when you see "whipping", they are just being tapped, and in my case, they aren't even touched with the crop. I just wave it close to their butt.
breanna keel yeah I own one
breanna keel mine, most the time but once that kiss sound comes out of my mouth, watch out
i feel so bad for falon and baby flo
Oh well. At least both horse and mare are alright!
agrree
Baby flo still was finishin out the turn also!!! Great pair!
Ariel Aman i know :)

The first one was scary for ME to watch oh my god
does anybody know if there is another video in the next day?????
My horse always wipes out at third and she won’t slow down because she loves to go home
Anyone know if Kelly schnaufer is riding a thoroughbred?
I don't believe in Whipping the horse ... its proven that it actually distracts the horse.
Hats off to the women that don't Whip their horse 🙏🙏💞💞
any tips on starting barrel racing ?
+Shawna McCabe it's not easy!!
don't do it !! it's absolutely cruel !! these horses are run to the ground and they are kicked violently and they are using crops, bad enough they have bits !! horrid to do this to a horse
Get a life because that fucking not true.
Learn from someone who knows how to ride properly and safely, safely for the horse and you
I spy fallon taylor and babyflo :D
I'm glad most of them don't have spurs and they love there horse
mauli_chantz alingic Lol may have been some sarcasm there...?
That’s usually how it works spurs down help as these people are professionals when most just starfish around lol

Is this AQHA only ?

Wow THEYRE ALL STARFISHING
How come the riders where kicking their horses so hard? And where the riders whipping the horses when they ran back "home" I wouldn't know because I do hunter jumping

Kendyl Thompson It gets them to go faster and jump "gettyup" It's hard to explain,it would be easier to show you instead of explaining😂
If you look, they're mostly "kicking" with the calves, not hard enough to really hurt the horse, more like saying "NOW! Go go go go go !"
Kendyl Thompson part if the game
Sadly yes. Whipping them and kicking them the amount of times and so harshly it's sad to watch.
Can't we just ride normally, be with them and love them for the noble, generous souls they are??
.....No because its all about , competition, winning and money and ego and bullsh*t!!! Poor horses. :(
misstruthseek horses love to run and love a challenge
on sorry
I have 18 horses
Delaine Green cool I have 22
bits and crop whipping and kicking and running a horse right in to the ground risking severe ankle injuries that would have it put down...this is clearly animal abuse.. i rode horses all my life...i thought bits and crops were horrid ...and here they are running the creatures right to the ground and wacking them when they fall !
That female announcer is so annoying
did that person just hit the horse in the head for a fall at 1:40 !!??? and the man tearing at the horse's mane and all the violent kicking and crop use ? this makes me so upset !!!
