Riverside Horsemanship Clinic Pt 1

[@valeriehudson7276]

Your comments of what you are thinking about "what you are having for lunch" while the horse is doing it's processing & saying when to breathe is so valuable to me . . . thank you Val

[@randolphlearning5255]

First. Good video,thanks Pat. Best of luck from Hamilton Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@matejac1108]

Great learning, great humor, great entertainment (in a good way) in today's crazy world I so enjoy Pat's videos. The way he presents his knowledge and how he sees horses, I get to understand the horses better, even my husband who is not in to horses is enjoying it and we are having such good laughs together, like when Pat explains things like "and now the horse knows that I know that she knows that I know..." LOL Also I am reminded that I wasn't that bad myself when riding back then, although was bad schooling in my days, my intuition was pretty good. I learned the most important thing from Pat and that is the pause... That is what I didn't get. If in older days I'd be given the chance for a horse it would be a great gift. Lets hope so, in the mean time, Pat and Deb please keep your videos coming, and God bless you with a long, happy and healthy lives.

Thank you for sharing your clinic videos online! I appreciate how you explain the connections between breath and rein use. Very helpful! From Kakabeka Falls Ontario Canada

[@billiepietz790]

Thank you. I always learn so much. Greetings from Germany

[@mildredkrisik8888]

Too old to ride anymore, but how I wish I were there at the clinic learning from you, Pat.

[@wendyfowler1396]

Greetings from faraway New Zealand! I enjoy watching your videos immensely, I have a 4yo arabian mare just back from initial 'breaking', and I so wish that I could bring her to one of your clinics. Instead, I sit in my chair watching, and try to memorise all the advice -

[@williamblackmore8941]

9 days ago watch this show 2nd time today better yet thanks

[@Greenasbro]

Thank you for sharing, from NZ

[@rosegarden9575]

San Bernardino Mountains in the background, I think...beautiful. Palms 🌴 and mountains with snow! Very nice video.

[@btsxanime81]

This was the best group I've seen so far, that actually listened more. I really enjoyed it!!! :) ;)

[@bhagmeister]

Pat, I love your obscure references to The Honeymooners.

[@jackson01357]

It was so cool to watch you work with people I know, Pat! Diemer is looking really good It's really helpful to know a tad bit about the teams you are teaching before watching. Thanks all!

[@marcgingras9135]

This is again an amazing video! i learned so much ! thanks ! cheers from Québec, Canada

[@Beth-no3nx]

Your a joy to watch pat

[@davidgregg2778]

Another great video Pat and Deb . So good to see you help and encourage your students through the tunnel . Always look forward to new videos from you .

[@larryrushing7800]

Deb and Pat, I thoroughly enjoy your riding instruction with all the details of the mechanics along with the philosophy and reason for doing what you do. I have one suggestion for the clinics. Put the antenna for the audio on top of Pat's hat so that his body does not block the signal at distance. I don't know if the students there can hear you or not, but I hate missing out on the conversation. Besides, the antenna on the top of the hat would look like a direct connection to heaven and emphasize the importance of what you say. seriously I hope you can find a way to fix that, but it is really the only fly in an otherwise wonderful presentation. Thanks for polishing an old timer and giving me more to consider as I train my 4 Mustangs. to use your phrase: " thank you so much."

[@O.K.equestrian]

What I wouldn't give to attend one of these clinics. Can only hope that Pat makes it to Queensland one day.

[@tinoyb9294]

Great to see Chinaco going to the clinics! I almost hate to see these bluebird days in Riverside. People keep moving there when they see the blue sky and the snow on the mountains. Lots of good students in this clinic and Pat was awesome.

[@noninoni9962]

Somebody has to pay all those incredabally high taxes.

[@santocinhos]

Loved it, you get more out of it by watching it after. Thanks Pat n Deb.

[@roberthambly9926]

Thanks' Pat and Deb this was a very good one. I think Pat is mellowing out.

[@pattimartin7250]

Thank you from New Mexico. Love the Videos.

[@modocroughstock5700]

Great workshop Pat, awesome video taping Deb. Much love from Mina Nevada

[@joelfoster3576]

VERY Good lessons . I see several of Pat's Saddles in the class...

[@jeanneosborne1958]

Love your videos! when will your 2022 clinic schedule be posted? I heard you are coming to Texas? thanks

[@dellefairclough5309]

The changes are incredible with the change of tiny details! or different presentations(sore horse):)

[@noninoni9962]

As a life-long (near six decades), western style, self-taught, horseback rider (note I didn't say "equestrian"), I can appreciate, and thank all of you "experts," the knowlege of horsemanship that you pass along to us regular folk... The only thing I would request that would help riders like myself, is to use more everyday language instead of all the jargon, or more explanations with the jargon... I've been able to figure most out in time (chances are I've already been doing it, but don't understand the talk), but when first listening to your sayings like, "move off my seat," gets confusing... And, it helps if you give the why for or what does it look like when... or what happens when... and why would I want the horse (ex: "in collection," or "side-passing," etc. etc.) I had no idea what you're referring to (and still have a lot to learn and understand), so any added information for us non-dressage jumper eventers or cattle rustlers (jk) would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks! Your the best!!

[@PatnDebPuckett]

First of all, thank you for watching our videos. Second, and the part you might not want to hear, the study of horsemanship requires a certain amount of study and curiosity. It’s not possible for us to hand feed what you call “jargon” because we take for granted that you can look things up and find the knowledge you seek either in our vast library of videos or through videos of other horsemen or through books. For example, here is the link to a video where Pat talks about collection: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJnEdpmXapx0ibc If you want to learn about sidepassing or any other terminology, simply enter “Pat Puckett sidepassing” in the search bar. A vast array of our videos on that subject will appear in a list: kzbin.info?search_query=pat+puckett+sidepassing.+ If you do this and still can’t find what you’re looking for, by all means, shoot us a comment or an email. Please also understand that we are not affiliated with the dressage, jumping, or any other world of performance horsemanship as are the majority of our students. Most of our students are just working cowboys and trail riders with the occasional refugee dressage rider or eventer. So don’t be intimidated by the terms. Just strive to learn them.

[@mattdiller9792]

Thank you both for another great video. No doubt many of us are looking forward seeing Chinaco carry a spade and advance through the two-rein. You mention driving teams or rather that you “talk” to teams; is there any hope of a video series on working teams? The series on Chinaco is the most comprehensive and useful tool I have come across for starting colts. Your Disciplined Ride has greatly influenced how I ride and teach. Looking forward to your tour through Utah later this year, maybe you’ll make it up to the Wasatch Back? Thank you both again! Matt

[@PatnDebPuckett]

We don’t own a team or live in a place that is conducive to driving horses.

[@Livefreejeeper]

Always good information. I need to do some work with my horse and me.

[@deniseblyde7009]

Thankyou from NZ

[@nebbindog6126]

Great stuff. Love Pat's valley girl voice!

[@sarieven]

Does Pat allow auditing of his clinics? I live so far away, I can’t bring my horse.

[@PatnDebPuckett]

Yes. The cost is $40/day.

[@angelfawn2894]

Good evening :) I just bought 3 acres is Prescott AZ. I am excavating my land to make room for a horse. I was just wondering what do you recommend I should get. Pasture, round pen , corral..paddock.. I’m not purchasing a horse until I am finished with lessons, but I want to make sure I have the right facilities for a happy horse/ rider. I plan on trail riding with friends once settled..

[@PatnDebPuckett]

There is no 3 acre parcel in Arizona that could sustain a horse so pasture is out. A horse will also turn whatever area you decide to dedicate to him into dirt. So choose the space you intend for your horse wisely. Horses need shelter from rain, snow, and wind and adequate space to stretch their legs. One of your acres would be sufficient with a 3 sided shed faced away from the prevailing wind. Don’t build a fancy barn with a stall. You shouldn’t need a round pen because you will hopefully be guided to buy a gentle horse as your first horse. Invest in a tack room that is level with the ground so you don’t have to lug your saddle up and down steps or in and out of a horse trailer.

[@angelfawn2894]

@@PatnDebPuckett thank you! I am very excited and I want to make sure I set things up right

[@PatnDebPuckett]

@@angelfawn2894 I forgot to add that you might also build a small “catch pen” attached to your horse’s shelter so you will be able to catch the horse easily. You will then have the choice of having the horse in a smaller area or turning him out onto his acre for exercise. If you attach a hay shed to the back side of your horse shelter, you could put a “window” that you can feed the horse through. That way, in bad weather, you could walk out of your house in your slippers, throw your horse some hay, and not be dragging hay around through the mud or snow. When designing your horse facility, think of the absolutely worst weather you’ll have to deal with and make things easy and efficient. You’ll also want to be able to see your horse from your house. This is part of the joy of having a horse at your own home.

[@PatnDebPuckett]

If you’ll email me, I’ll draw something out for you…[e-mail]

[@angelfawn2894]

@@PatnDebPuckett Thank you! Great suggestions :) It can get pretty chilly up here in Northern AZ. Thank you SO much! My dream of owning a horse is finally happening after 40 years! 🙏

[@clcreations9634]

If this is riverside,CA I would live to know how to attend a clinic like this

[@guillaumevalat8061]

Bonjour 👋 et merci 🙏

[@larag4646]

I often wonder, what do horses get out of being ridden? There must be something for them to allow it. Is the alfalfa hay really that good? Do they really enjoy our company that much? I don't get it. Even the best horseman/horsewoman is still poking and prodding and making the horse run around when that horse could be in the pasture grazing or hanging out under a tree with their friends. What does he get out of this relationship?

[@lindatruitt7858]

There’s some interesting video by a lady names Sinclair Elsa I think
