He Died in that Saddle ( Old Cowboy Wisdom! )

[@jackmcnaughton3096]

“Well boys looks like we bout beat the storm” that’s a poetic, cowboy ending

[@LifeintheWest]

It sure is. I’ve actually said it myself. (I was wrong, but we won’t talk about that.) 😄

[@RideTheSlide]

Classic! Love the stories!

[@rickreese5794]

Bingo PAL 💯🤙🏻😎

[@karenmino4472]

" Don't expect me to get off the Ark to argue with someone who doesn't even know it's raining" is another one. . . THINK ABOUT IT, .😇 KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS Y'all ✝️ FAITH OVER FEAR DEAR SAINTS 👍

[@garyb4929]

What a way to go. GREAT history & stories

[@willowtinklenberg3652]

Just got home from a party for the cowboy in this video. 70 years young today. Happy birthday Dave!

[@roniboyd613]

I'll bet he has a treasure trove of stories. What a rich history he can tell❤.

[@carolmac5944]

Trinity,what an interesting man. The history, saddles,and the barn are inspiring. Thank you, all three of you.

[@rickreese5794]

[@patriciamuskevitsch8359]

Absolutely loved hearing his stories and seeing those saddles...amazing. Thanks to the gentleman for sharing this glimpse of a well lived life.

[@theresarobert3119]

Really enjoyed the history about the saddles, so interesting. What a tough chap he is chatting to you in his shirt sleeves!!

[@LifeintheWest]

Thats for sure.

[@MT-me4ny]

THANK YOU LOVE OLD TIMERS

[@jimmiemercer8930]

Those old Hamley saddles are worth a small fortune, not to mention the Powder River. They knew their saddles! Thanks for sharing this great story!

[@larrytucker5950]

The gentlemen you were interviewing, his hat had the most corrector I have saw in a long time, down to the round vent hole, enjoyed his knowledge believe he is about my age (81?) Thamks

[@MikelJay]

Love the history. We’re on land my in-laws bought in ‘42. Red gambrel roofed barn 1902c still standing strong.

[@LifeintheWest]

Love the old barns.

[@rickreese5794]

GR8 post, 🤙🏻😎💯

[@shaunroberts9361]

I could listen to these old cowboy's everyday. Man cannot wait for the next one. Was a Ranch Hand for 5 years in Northern AZ. Right next to the Petrified Forest. Best job i ever had. I learned allot out there. Thank you for sharing great video...

[@edwatts9890]

[@jameslaszlo-tf5nw]

I enjoyed this latest video Trinity. GOD Bless You and Family

[@karenmino4472]

God bless you and your precious loved ones also 😇 We are seeing Bible Prophecy coming to pass before our eyes and we were born for such a time as this. KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS Y'all ✝️ FAITH OVER FEAR DEAR SAINTS 👍 Please know that Jesus Christ has already won this spiritual battle and He is coming back any moment Y'all 🙏😇✝️💜🙏👍

[@nicoledillavou4043]

I’m Pendleton Oregon born and raised so was excited to see the Hamley saddle!!

[@hhlagen]

I could spend all day listening to you fellas talking about life on the ranch.

[@tonywolff3873]

Fantastic video, i love listening to old cowboys they have the best stories, thank you Trinity for all you do to bring awareness and appreciation of life in the west

[@brendafickenscher7398]

I went to a huge auction about 40 years ago and found a custom made bronc saddle with the metal horn. Bought it for $120 and it was the best saddle for my lower back. As a young girl, I had a few nasty horse wrecks so was real happy to find a comfortable ride. I still use this saddle. And yes, when you get popped out this rig, you really don't know where you will land. The West has a treasure trove of stories - from the past and present!!!

[@shalinivarma237]

Thanks so much for sharing this vid, this old cowboy super interesting bet he has some real good stories to tell. 😄👍

[@LifeintheWest]

He sure does. The old timers lived differently than us. Their lives were very closed to the outside world and very immersed in their work.

[@patsabol8699]

This was so very interesting. Thank you and your friends for the lessons. Also, the high view of the property is breathtaking.

[@LifeintheWest]

Yeah. Very pretty country, even in winter.

[@karenmino4472]

God is soooooo amazing and faithful to protect and provide.😇👍🙏

[@freedommeow]

Thank you for keeping this tradition alive, and allowing the opportunity for the next generation to learn from the past! Its absolutely beautiful!🐴🤠👍🏻

[@kennethtemplin5837]

I enjoy listening to the old timers stories. Seeing some of the gear that has been handed down through the generations.👍

[@chrisspence3216]

Great stories great job Trinity keep It up Yeehaw !!!

[@maryfrederickson2526]

I am a conservator in Texas and had the pleasure of restoring Santa Ana's saddle for the State of Texas a while ago. So, it is with enormous pleasure that I watched (and saved) this episode with the wonderful gentleman telling his tales about the various types of saddles in his barn. Thank you so much!

[@RUFFHUNTER]

Over the years I've always looked at how the old barns and sheds were constructed. The timbers in this barn are simply beautiful. On a side note, I ride an iron horse and don't ever let my guard down.

[@williamgeorge3154]

trinity another awesome video.was very interesting seeing the old Saddles and hearing about the people that homestead that ranch very cool

[@tanyaashdown9760]

Love looking around that stable at all the old saddles and gear. Awesome stories too, keep the fantastic videos coming

[@darlynsamson4970]

Great music choice. Fits the drama of the stories. Great stories. Nothing more dramatic than the truth of someone's history and the older the person, the better the stories.

[@jackkeeble9272]

Thank you for sharing brother love you channel

[@kathleenredick275]

Lot of wisdom standing around that barn. ❤

[@dennisatkins9837]

Great episode Trinity!

[@vaquero7072]

Thanks Trinity great video

[@mikerapp8163]

I could listen to that man All day everyday while working and never tire of it. Great history and education in all of it. Thanks for getting this for posterity and posting it for all interested. Yeah, 4 wheelers have their place but horse and leather be like driving a vintage car. Nothing compares. Thank you and be safe.

[@deborahlewis5964]

As a daughter of a dairy farmer… it’s a 24/7. By the time you get the milking, feeding and cleaning… it was time to start all over…. You have to love the life!!!! No vacations…. You start at 3am…. Your work ends at maybe 2:30…Then it starts up again at 3/3:30….

[@LifeintheWest]

Yes. Dairy farming has the longest hours and largest commitment of anything I can think of…. Besides marriage maybe. 😁

[@deborahswanberg6144]

Great video, love the old stories.

[@danielmastin3606]

Awesome history, thanks for sharing

[@wildflower1335]

Thank you s for sharing the truthful and so very interesting stores of our nostalgic past. My grampa was a real cowboy on their cattle ranch in Alberta, Canada. Sure miss him.

[@LifeintheWest]

Glad I could bring back some memories. I would love to go ride on a ranch in Canada. Trying to put that together. We will see.

[@wildflower1335]

If you find one near Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, let me know. I'd hike there if I had too ... I'm 74 in May ... 😆 🤣 😂

[@stephaniechavez9422]

my favorite saddle...the ladies saddle. favorite story...being dragged by the horse. best cowboy novel storyline...dying in the saddle. that's how john dutton should go out in yellowstone. what an ending! loved the stories trinity. you are the best narrator i've heard in quite some time. thanx!

[@LifeintheWest]

Thank you Stephanie.

[@ralphcrosby9622]

Love those old Hamley saddles. Ranching changed in the last 100 years. I worked on them in my younger years. These stories line up with all the ones I have lived or experienced.

[@libby5335]

This was a really neat video. Liked listening to a real old-time cowboy tell stories. Enjoy all your videos!

[@rickhaile2190]

Loved that video. Old timers are so wise and have great stories. I talk to old timers every chance I get. You can learn more in one hour, than you can doing it yourself in a month.

[@rickreese5794]

Thx for the insight 🤙🏻😎💯

[@sarahporter9541]

I love it. Keeping the old stories alive! Making history.

[@jdhall229]

Thanks again for an inside look for an outsider.

[@reddirtinmysoul271]

Love the old stories!

[@MrBowNaxe]

That was a great visit listening to Dave's stories. Thanks for sharing that! Can't wait to see what's next.

[@mrwilson4909]

wish i was there. i love listening to the ol guys and all the history and stories.

[@glendacisneros982]

Thank you for sharing this...very Interesting history! ❤Happy trails!😊

[@robynmcleroy216]

Thank you for sharing!! Love these kinds of stories and looking at Really cool ranch tack!! ❤

[@entiatmule3820]

Really like your videos! Who doesn't love old saddles?!........with a stories to boot! Thanks!

[@deborahlewis5964]

I love your video’s!!!! And I think this was one of my favorites…..❤

[@LifeintheWest]

Thank you for watching. I am so glad you enjoy what I do. 👍

[@julienorman]

I was in my neighbor's barn to see some calves and saw a saddle. They didn't have horses. So I asked if he used to ride. He looked confused and then seemed surprised to see the saddle. "Oh that. That was my grandpa's." It hasn't been used in decades. Their house and barns are filled with things from their grandparents, who were the original homesteaders. There's a lot of history out in the prairies still.

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you

[@donniebell862]

Awesome video Trinity, very informative!!!

[@karenmino4472]

Trinity has such an anointed name. Praying God's abundant blessings for all of us.😇✝️💜🙏👍

[@mollytremblay1396]

Thank you so much for this video. I have always loved hearing people's stories. As a young physical therapist I moved from PA to CO. I had older patients who told stories of crossing the plains in covered wagons as children, riding in stage coaches to get from Pueblo to Denver. People's lives are fascinating if we take the time to listen.

[@kemmuckleroy8587]

Love, love your channel with all of your stories and important facts you bring us…great job!!! Sure wished they would bring those saddles in and protect them better. Would love to know the history and wished there was some of the people who rode in them were still around…can you imagine the stories they would tell us!!! I’ve done a lot of research on my family and was amazed to what I found out and where we came from and where we came into America 🇺🇸. Keep up the great work…sure love what your doing…stay safe and God bless 🥰.

[@karenmino4472]

That's right 👍 God has truly blessed and protected and provided for His precious children 😇 We were born for such a time as this, so excited with each day that the Lord gives us. We are seeing Bible Prophecy coming to pass before our eyes 👀

[@clwest3538]

That was the fastest 20 min of my day!! Great video - great stories - wonderful saddles! Having had a couple 'wrecks' myself, I cannot imagine what was going through his mind as he was 'skiing' and bouncing '... across the field, the road and through the barbed wire"!! Great stories Trinity! Thank you so much!

[@shepherd4406]

Thank you for sharing his stories.

[@nickydumas9455]

I’ve never met an old Cowboy that wasn’t busted up. God bless the Cowboy. That tack shed, if it could yarn, could sure tell some stories i think. Thanks fellas. Oh dear, (@5:26) the man says the saddle was from the Dr who delivered his Ma, a Powder River saddle. I only just now finished watching ‘Powder River’ (KZbin) 1953! Small circle we horseman.

[@danielrandolph9170]

Good video stay safe Daniel from central Mississippi

[@cathymarshall8327]

Great history he has there! Love those old bear trap saddles! Happy the cool old barn didn't burn down! I sure like your videos, thanks for posting them.

[@karenmino4472]

I have heard that those saddles were also called "Widowmaker "

[@CrossTimbersSon]

I enjoyed seeing the family saddles and hearing the stories. I worked in a custom saddle shop and always enjoyed restoring well made antique saddles. They were definitely built to work hard and last. The homemade buck rolls. The bear trap and the old tree styles. The 3/4 or 5/8 rigs on the square skirt saddle, the in-skirt rigging on the Hamley saddle, oxbow stirrups and loop through seat was cool. Fine collection! Reminded me of the saddle museum at Kings saddlery Cool stuff! Great video!

[@micheleliedtke7353]

Love the scenery Trinity! Beautiful!

[@terrywallingford5979]

A true treasure of a man. Thanks Trinity for sharing. Keep on keeping on...

[@ashleyfarmer1991]

Love the stories ! Love that generation. Was raised by a man just like the dad. Taught me everything I know about anything. Miss that man.

[@phatty363]

I love tack videos. The history and stories is the best part

[@cubsfan910]

What a great video! Seriously, y'all should make a documentary about ranch life & definitely include these two, and other ranchers who can spin yarns about the past, as well as tell it like it is in the here & now. More like this! Very well done!

[@jamesmooney5348]

I could really listen to this gentleman speak a lot more. Thanks Trinity

[@peggyharwell3674]

This was just great. It was like visiting with a grandpa and learning about the good ole days. Thank you ever so much

[@joannmitchell1314]

How interesting, love hearing the history of the ranchers and how things were done and the love of the land.

[@kimtanner8711]

I could listen for hours to the stories. Great video Trinity. BLESSINGS !!!

[@hopalstudiosjuliehattis]

Life was amazing and definitely hard back in the day. Thanks for sharing stories with us Trinity ❤😊

[@bobbinsew]

If only those saddles could talk! My kind of barn, full of tack and history. Fantastic video.

[@hiker4life4020]

Fascinating!

[@nicfrieler1305]

Very knowledgeable video, love the history of these ranches.

[@jerrivenables1289]

Love this interview!

[@KegenClark]

Love the videos keep up the good work. I want to get into ranching can you make a video about how to start ranching?

[@dereksix]

Great interview, thank you !

[@glennwheeler639]

What a great video of a very interesting man. Loved the history! Thank you!

[@montanaboy3777]

YES!! I am thrilled that you got to chat with that ol' cowboy (I forgot his name) and once again the idle chit-chat is so informational as you guys bounce around subjects & issues dealt with back in the days of the west!! Loved the story of the gentleman who passed on in his saddle! I hope you continue to find these ol leather polishers and bring out the real people of yester-year. Thanks for the latest video and a great day there in that barn - what a great way to spend a day!!

[@jimgreenan8126]

They stories that he shared with you make me miss my father-in-law he would tell me about when he was a kid and then a young farmer/ rancher he was very diverse he had beef, milk cows and sheep. Even pugs for a while. He was flood irritating over 200 acres as well as butchering for himself and other people. That generation were tough hard working men and women.

[@johnt3728]

That was very interesting thank you.

[@wattsline52]

I love this video it remind me of my friends ranch in Oklahoma - Marty Albuquerque NM

[@stumpy2816]

Love it. Thanks Trinity 👍👍

[@douggalloway3250]

Gosh that takes me back a lot of years. It’s a tough life but we enjoyed every minute both good and bad. Still miss the horses and calving season. Thanks and havagudun boys.

[@scott6252]

What great story's and experiences you guys shared, that barn looked very old I wonder when it was built, the big cobblestone at the entrance was interesting maybe used like a foot scraper I guess.

[@juliojames5986]

Hard n fast…..never ! Thats the way to go, in the saddle. Now there are different descriptions for the saddle in that perspective! ! Thx. 🤠

[@MissKitty944]

I had a home care client who was found in his truck as he had gone out to check the cattle. Ranchers/farmers go out with their boots on.

[@RealJeep]

Going to the High Line? Gonna see some Canadian cowboy stuff up there.

[@creekerjeeper3879]

Thank you for another outstanding video. You again show why Montanans are Montanans.

[@brianburge3349]

THANKS BUD.

[@barbarabrand190]

Interesting vlog! I have a homestead with cows and goats. Mixed milk products are wonderful. I milk the animals once a day. Cows in the morning, goats at night. Been milking like this for a few decades.

[@jclarkj6]

Thanks so much for doing these

[@RideTheSlide]

Out west for a family reunion we needed a vet for a cut paw on our dog. Found a random large animal vet from the area who would help out a young couple and their hurt dog from out of town. Turns out he had just bought my mother-in-law's saddle at auction. ❤

[@karenmino4472]

God provides for His precious creatures and children also 😇🐶👍

[@emersontayten]

Amazing saddles. Thanks mang

[@lonnygehring3043]

Great interview!
