Tip: Making Sidelines

[@PathologicallyPositive]

I found your channel 3 days ago and now I’m hooked! I’ve already learned a few things that will surely improve my horses’ livelihoods. Thank you!!

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

awesome, welcome aboard !

[@TheMirandaW]

Thank you for this! I made a pair for a colt that I thought would be a little broncy on the first ride. I put these on, let him feel them out, then climbed up and sat down. He he jumped around a little bit but it definitely helped him slow down and think. Highly recommend these!!

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

Anymore I use them on all of them.

[@Upunda]

Keep it coming, learning some great stuff. Just finished your book, it was really enjoyable, great for anyone who wants to be a better horseman.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

[@bobworkman8565]

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

thank you

[@garritharper930]

Could you please do a video making the style of hobble you twist and it had a chain link to lock.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

sure, that's an easy one

[@smlmentorship1969]

That was cool, never heard of side lines or how they would work on a horse. Cool, sure would help them to know where their feet are

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

I use them a lot. They do work good

[@cadetcadet1814]

Awesome video! You just saved me a few bucks! Can’t wait to begin making them. But for clarification: 1. What would the average distance between loops for an adult QH, and a yearling? 2. Do you have a preference of straight or cross tie hobbles. (Left leg to left or front left to rear right?

[@wild_mustangs_and_parrots]

I personally never use opposite legs because the loose hind could easily step over the line and the pastern then gets hooked up on the sideline and hence a wreck and a rope burned pastern once you untangle the downed horse.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

I dont know all the measurements off the top of my head, I just eyeball things. I just go left to left or right to right but either way works.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

@@wild_mustangs_and_parrots they end up doing that no matter what and they dont go down they just do a three legged fart dance and learn to pay better attention, its really not to big of a deal.

[@rafterL78]

What's the advantage of these over hobbles? Really enjoying your channel, just found it a couple weeks ago and watch a few most nights.

[@edwarnock9884]

Nice video, Mr. A. Davis!

[@djgarrison238]

What the hell! I just ordered two pairs ! 🤣😂 Great video, Thanks for sharing.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

now you can have 10 pair 😂 😂

[@Cecilyeg]

Love your videos but who is the little person off to the side??

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

one of my children

[@hardtokillranch8170]

I'm Tom James out of New Deal TX, a little hiccup of a west Texas town where the wind only blows 364 days a year. Really enjoy your videos, thanks.

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

I've driven through New Deal, the wind is always blowing 😂 thank you

[@dyoung2087]

How long is your finished sideline? Thanks

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

about three feet

[@dyoung2087]

@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt Thank you!

[@GerryCoxHorsemanship]

Hey Bro, now show them in Use!

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

should have done that yesterday, had about 5 horses cruising around on grass

[@BullySportfishing]

Is it a crown knot?

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

If you want to call it that you are welcome lol. I don't know the name of knots I just know how to tie a few

[@BullySportfishing]

@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt probably better that way. I can hardy tie my boots 😂

[@terrilewis172]

Thanks, as simple is always better but got to have the tape. Only takes one that should have had it but is hot and now ruined. Cuffs on safer all around!

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

I like my cuffs but its good too know how to get by when you're broke or live far from town

[@edwarnock9884]

Esposas! Run boys or ya'll be hobbled for sure.

[@JohnDoe-fp8mn]

😂

[@johnvanriper3363]

That is a Turks head a least what I was taught

[@HorsemanshipAsAnArt]

Its a turks head if you finish it by pulling the ends under the knot
