Super helpful series. I definitely been skipping a couple of the little things. I love 310 ranch ropes. I have a 60. Just great products

I just wanted to share a little tip to everyone who’s training and starting horses. Go into your session with a plan. Pick a few things you want to work on each day and write them down. I know from experience if you don’t have a solid plan we waiver from the goal we’re trying to achieve. Get a note pad and sit down the night before or however you choose to approach it but write down the goals you wanna achieve especially if you’re like me and training multiple horses in a day. Follow the 5 principles and keep them in mind with each exercise you’re planning on in the session. You’re 80 percent more likely to complete your goals when you write them down. Make then achievable. Keep things simple.

Hope this helps yall. From Canada 🇨🇦 calib

I too encounter this especially first few times with spurs but often without. Long trots have worked well for me. Also when I’m asking for that hip to come around I kinda bump the bit cause I know the nose is comin for my toes. Bumping the bit in an upward motion kinda hard helps it. Typical issue I find in starting horses. Just my thought though and someone else might have a better solution

My young fella is becoming quite the horse. Reckon I shoulda introduced him to a single cow before and not a couple hundred though lol he did great. Hes almost black now. Black roan 🤔 b1 changed my whole game. I’ve started around 30-40 colts just using this program. Study study and repeat. Practice and practice some more. The horses benefit but you will benefit most. Don’t be afraid to try new things, add and take away but stick to the foundation

I honestly would love to come spend a summer or a year working horses and learning cattle with you. You’ve helped my horsemanship so much. Thank you

Richard yes sir I did exactly that and it went way better then I thought. He’s gunna take him home and bring me a nice 3 yr old filly instead. Even if I got him going there’s something neurological wrong there. Unfortunately he’s not a good partner you would be able to trust.

at what point do you call the owner and let them down?? It’s a terrible thing to admit defeat and I know I’m a decent horseman but he’s a trauma llama. Now he’s coming at me with bad intentions. Even if I can get to him the owners are a bit older and the man is a really good horseman but I know he’s scared him. I have done so much. He’s not a horse you can ever trust. 2 2hr sessions for a couple of weeks and he’s never let me catch him again. I feel so sick about the conversation I’m going to have to have. This is the second horse in my career where it seems to be a brain thing. Too many good ones out there.
