The word “ release” is the most important word in training for a lot of us. When they show even the slightest try at giving what you’re looking for in baby steps,you build from there. Now for me it’s not drilling them them over & over and over again on the same day at the same new thing I get about 3 good try’s & go do something else and maybe before heading back to the barn I’ll give it one my go, if it works great if it doesn’t I go do something he knows and end on a positive thing. When I start anything new I warm up with what my horse knows than I ask for the new request I might get a little of what I want than I release the pressure, my release at this stage is mostly seat and legs but as soon as I get that try from my horse his reward is me taking all the pressure off instantly at that give or try. Most horses catch on fast. See how the cavison or nose band was added & the slightest of pressure was given from the ground on the reins the horse broke a little at the poll came to the bit and took a step back, the trainer immediately release the pressure. That was a BIg try by that horse. Great example.💕

I'm not younger than you Pat. I'm older than you. Probably a lot older. My tackless riding horse is my arabian breeding stallion. He rides very nicely alone or in company. I hung a halter on his head for the first time when he was 6 years old. The next day I had him leading and loading, took him home and took his training from there. He learned every cue I would ever need from the ground before I ever got on his back. He has been tacked up but he has never been ridden with a stitch of tack. The first time I got on we took a ride down a trail I'd walked him down many times. He will lead just as well without a leadrope as he does with one even when surrounded by mares in season. If you want a classy ride you couldn't get one more classy than Midnite Star.

Love your videos Pat, in addition to your knowedge and skill, your humor is spot on, thank you! If there is any way to break down just a little bit more, your movements and intention in the back wards walk, getting the front feet to step out and back, I sure would appreciate it. I understand it's quite subtle. You say put your left foot "on" is that on the horse or down in the stirrup? It looks like you are stepping out and back 2 or 3 times on one side, then switching sides, or are you/can you sort of sashay to each side for every front foot fall of the horse? Love this technique!

Because I drive my horses first and train youngsters, I always use a caveson/noseband. I set mine a thumb's Width below the facial ridge. I will use it as loosely as I can but if I need to tighten it to avoid the horse from ignoring the bit, I can. It is an essential part of my equipment.

We never use voice commands except when driving a horse or a team. Your voice cannot be as subtle as your body and there is no release with your voice. Also, you can only devise so many voice commands to use while there is an almost infinite number of things a horse can do by simply moving away from pressure or following the clues given by your body.

@PatnDebPuckett2 жыл бұрын
It’s not attached to the bridle. It’s underneath the bridle. We don’t buckle it until we have the horse bridled so the horse can freely open his mouth to take the bit. Then we buckle it so we can fit one finger between the noseband and the horse’s jaw. It isn’t meant to be so tight that the horse can’t move his mouth. It’s just a reminder not to open his mouth and evade the bit.

@PatnDebPuckett3 жыл бұрын
My least favorite comments come not from people interested in learning something and exchanging different methods of training but who think they have it all figured out and choose to keep their minds closed. These people are generally emboldened by the anonymity of the internet. Saddles have been developed to spread the weight of the rider across a larger area and make carrying weight easier on the horse, bridles and bits of the type we use enable communication. Horses like the one in this video have been ridden incorrectly and, as the title of the video indicates, have to relearn how to respond to the hands, legs, and seat of the rider. “Free riding” as you suggest might be fine for meandering around an enclosed space but try doctoring a sick cow with no bridle or saddle and send me the video. I’ll wait.
