Thank you for expanding on your interpretation of Bits. It's GREAT to have someone just break it down as you have. Not everyone has a degree in horse training (like a lot of commenters I've seen seem to think they have). Some of us are just back yard trail riders hearing a lot of stuff from a lot of different people trying to 'help' along the way. I've been riding all of my life...I have my favorite trainers that I like to learn from, and have watched a lot of people work with horses. But...no one has EVER just sat down and simply explained to me what bits do, why we want a certain bit, and why we may not. It's just really good to have this video to learn from and apply to our own situations. Thanks Ryan!!!!

I’m glad I came across your video - my horse was a constant bit chewer, he just couldn’t cope with it so I put him in a (self made) rope bosal which works fabulously - but I still felt like a failure or at least slipping an important step. Now I know my gut feeling was right. Thank you!

Thank you for all of the great information. I really agree with your training methods. I have a horse thst goes English and western and I was trying different bits. Your video gave me good knowledge. Thanks again from Long Island,NY.

There was a lot of horse training wisdom in this video. I was especially glad to hear you remark on the fact that sometimes with some horses, dealing with a bit in their mouth can be an unwanted distraction. Pat Puckett talks about how the more they are focused on their mouth, the less they are focused where they should be -- on your seat, legs and body. In his case, the answer is frequently a really simple snaffle bit. He actually designed one that's a sweet iron solid mouthpiece with a cricket (one that clicks) in the middle. You can send a clear signal to the horse without him getting confused or fixated on his mouth. I was also really glad to see you don't have correction bits hanging there, and you don't have broken mouthpiece shank bits hanging there. So I can keep watching your videos haha. Thanks for the great videos.

I'm working with a 17 yo twh that was in a show barn for about 16 yrs. He was never taught to canter, was shown in 2 gait classes only. I cannot get him to canter on line. With LOTS of encouragement I can get a few strides in the round pen but he can't hold it. Any tips?

I happy perfectly happy to work off a horse in a halter once we've been our partnering up for awhile. I like my horse to pick up on subtle changes in my seat, legs and feet when I am out cutting out a cow for doctoring or whatever. MY mind and hands are focused on the cow and my rope and not reins. after a while the horse picks up on what animal I want and just goes that way but he KNOWS from my seat if I WNAT that cow or I am just looking so it is a matter of Life-up and life down and they can sense that. It takes a good year of daily work to get there but once you do it is an amazing partnership. If I wasn;t working on mountain summer leases 30 miles from anything, I could probably get away with no head gear at all but I like being on the cround and still having contact and control just incase something sooks him. on a few occassions, wolves and grizz suddenly appear and you sure can't expect a range-wise horse not to get darned nervous about that!

You never showed the bits. You just talked and talked. Never showing the bit type or how it worked. Im disappointed.

In response to Stan’s comment; He did a great job repeating the name of the bit he was discussing, ( ie snaffle bit) so it is easy enough to look up the snaffle. He also mentioned the bosal bridle which is bitless and that is also easy to research if you need more info..

"Giving to the bit", or should you say giving to the pain. Sick and tired of people using bits. Why don't you put a bit in your moth and have someone drag you around with that. See how you like it.
@ariellewilson7308 ай бұрын
Yeah, because bitless riding is better when in reality those can be misused. 🤦
