Hey richard, maybe i missed out a video sequence or information in your videos, but i didn't quite get how you 'let your ES20ties stand tied up for a couple of hours' exactly. 

Again: i am from Germany where people really kill you with their eyes if you tie up your horse in a knot halter..not to mention tie up in a snaffle or with a rope around their neck for hours... but mainly i don't care about it if possible and avoid discussions. 

But to get it right: You tie them up the way it looks in the videos at end of day2/3, right??: Snaffle on, neckrope around neck and through curb strap and then tie on whereever you tie your horses at your barn. Do you tie them there rather tight or loose? I am asking because my little gelding here still sometimes tries to make funny moves with his head when he's bored or still a bit fresh where i fear he could manage to get somehow tangled? And further question: do you tie them with snaffle only to get them used to it standing around still or because you tie them up like that usually like that in their future saddle horse life? would you also let them stand there tied on when there are no buddies around/seen? Hope my questions make sense? ;-*

ps apart from that: i am so in love with your content and just happy to have found you..as you'd say...suits me just fine!!! HAHA

Hi Richard, as a kid from Colorado, I know that any unplanned trip to CSU with a horse is not a good trip to take. Hope all went well for you and the horse.

Hey everyone! 

I have a 2 yr old AQHA Colt I’m bringing along, I’ve saddled him about 6 times now. Every single time he bucks his ass off🫠 I end the session with him working under saddle well. But there seems to be something I’m missing that’s bugging him. Wondering what I could do to help him through this. 

I’ve flanked him, roped his feet, worked him with the cinch rig extensively, sacked him out, can throw a tarp on him, can put my own weight on his back, he’s very very quiet but the saddle seems to be scary to him every time. 

Couple things to mention, he seems to be more sensitive on his right side though I have mainly worked through that, can be a tad lazy, I have concerns about him getting “dull”.

If anyone has any insight let’s hear it! Would love to hear from you Richard, I know we chatted on live about this colt a month or so ago.
