Wish you hadn't done it, Doc! Lots of groundwork before I would even dare to get on that Bronco. I hope you are completely healed and doing well. Best wishes! 💝
Exactly to each their own but for me round work is key to not getting bucked off. However I totally agree if you get bucked off you must get back on immediately
Them: "Ride the buck out of 'em." Me: "Okay, but remind me... What's that number you call when ya need 911?" Ground work, man. When you're our age, you gotta do the ground work. At 15 we bounced and laughed about it. It doesn't work like that now.
@@creativehorsequeen "Manners" can't be reminded if the horse never got a chance to know what they were in the first place. Ground work! It's never, ever the horse's fault; all problems with horses are people problems.
In rewatching this video, I'm struck by how incredibly patient that horse is with this guy's hamfisted and awkward approach. The "rider" is more concerned with putting on a show than with connecting with the horse. Ultimately this horse is going to develop a bad habit of dumping riders (maybe even ones that can actually ride) and wind up in the kill pen through no fault of its own. It's a sad scenario that plays out all over the country.
I like that horse's look. He's not panicking... Just cooly pissed. I'd say you took the hard road to get there but hey... More'n one way to skin a horse! I'll take the long way tho... 😆
At first I was like this horse don’t buck that hard he’ll be alright then around 1:30 that horse started getting some air time props to you for sticking with him. hope you heal up soon
Haha 😂 I give you applause 👏 for trying it the old way.He’s going to work out just fine in a couple months. I think a little more ground work would be easier on your body.👍🏼
So much wrong here. Obviously no ground work or if it had any it was a long time ago. The first attempt at mounting should of been a clue. Didn't have his head at all. And the fence builder gloves are nice touch. I'm sorry.🤣
@@virginiamoss7045 No groundwork. And tying him up to mount is a wreck waiting to happen. He has never been taught lateral flexion, or to give to pressure. A smaller area, like a round pen, would work much better than a large arena. But this guy would probably not take advice from anyone.
PEOPLE LEARN HOW TO DO A ONE REIN STOP BUT EVEN BEFORE DOING THAT DO YOUR GROUND WORK. I'M OVER 60 YEARS OLD AND HADN'T FALLEN OFF A HORSE UNTIL MY DANG T-SHIRT GOT HUNG ON HORN THEN I PASSED OUT CAUSING ME TO FALL OFF. THAT DAY MY STUD REARED UP I LOOKED DOWN NOTICED SHIRT HUNT REACHED TO UNHANG AND PASSED OUT, THAT BROKE MY 32 YEAR RECORD. I WAS TAUGHT TO DO ONE REIN STOPS WHEN A HORSE RAN OFF DON'T JUST PULL HORSE AROUND IF YOUR ARE GOING FAST, START WITH LARGE CIRCLE THEN MAKE SMALLER TAKING HEAD TO HIP ONCE STOPPED. **** KEY NOTE PRACTICE ONE REIN FLEX PRIOR TO MOUNTING, DO LOTS OF GROUND WORK WAITING FOR EYES TO SOFTEN**** CLINTON ANDERSON TEACHES DUMB PEOPLE BEST HOW TO WORK WITH PROBLEM HORSES. MOST THING I LEARNED FORM CLINTON WAS " MOVE THEIR FEET FORWARD BACK WARDS LEFT & RIGHT BEFORE MOUNTING, & ONCE I DO MOUNT". IF YOUR HORSE REARS DON'T PULL HEAD AROUND WHILE FRONT FEET ARE OFF GROUND WAIT UNTIL ALL 4 FEET ARE ON GROUND THEN PULL HEAD TO HIP & MOVE HIP AROUND UNLOCKING HIP. IF HORSE GOES TO BUCKING PULL HEAD THE ONLY THING THAT HAPPENED ONCE DURING THAT TIME WAS HORSE LAID DOWN. I'VE BEEN BREAKING MY OWN HORSES FOR OVER 40 YEARS NOW IN MY 60'S & BEING A WOMAN THE LAST HORSE I RODE 1ST WAS IN 2015 AND SHE NEVER OFFERED TO BUCK UNTIL ASKED TO LOPE, SHE DIDN'T DO MUCH. ******* BUCKING IS A LEARNED BEHAVIOR SO ONCE YOU FALL OFF THEY'LL LEARN TO BUCK HARDER UNTIL YOU FALL OFF THAT IS ALL YOU'RE TEACHING THEM IS HOW TO BUCK*****
I'm so sorry about the ribs. I come from Dakota Territory cow people - as opposed to sheep people... and I'm thinking this was one reason my grandpa had a Tin Lizzy by 1920 when they left their homestead in 1920 with just one cow. Dried out in the Badlands before it started elsewhere. Bad farming practices. And no, they never found oil on any of the 4 homesteads the siblings had.
I tip my hat to you cowboy.. well respected. Most young fellas wouldn't dare to break a horse. To me its fun I been doing it every since 13 and now im 23 and still love doing it. Hurts but its fun.
Because there's way better ways to start a horse than just jumping on their back and ripping their mouths up, that we have plenty of knowledge about in this day and age, yet there's still plenty of people who insist on remaining ignorant nonetheless
Amazing, awww I'm so sorry about the broken bones. I've fallen off my horses plenty of times but I'm young and got good bones, nothing happened so far but I've probably jinxed myself just saying it...anyways I need to have more courage because I've had an unbroken horse for 6 months and I'm training her but still a long way to go before getting on her back again...but I should just bite the bullet hey
Amigo, con todo respeto pero que buenos putasos le puso ese caballo hasta le hizo ver estrellas negras, mejor llevelo con una persona que sepa manejar esos animalitos porque ellos no tienen la culpa sinó usted que no sabe manejarlos. Áunque una cosa si le reconozco, le sobre valor de hombre y por eso mis respetos.
Sir I hope all is well just had to tell u that u look just like my uncle dear God I laughed so hard for the hole vidio I seen him do the same thing hope u got back on
well....my pride ain't hurt none....ribs have done healed up....and I rode that same horse deep into the Colorado Weminuche Wilderness all the way to camp.....about 18 miles....then rode him half way through the Weminuche and we seen more wonders that you could ever dream of....camped at 11,880 feet elevation....tree line....but the pass going in is at 12,400 ft...no trees up that high.....seen bear, elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep...caught a bunch of trout and fried 'em up.....had 30" of snow on Sept 6 & 7....and I rode that same horse out....through rain, sleet and snow, then back in again....so I want you to know my ribs healed up fine....the horse is broker than broke....but I greatly appreciate your concern for an old man like me.....
And one more thing....the first time I went elk hunting in Colorado....it was 19 and 80....and back then, I was a young man.....and my trip last Fall in 2020, makes 40 straight years going to Colorado and Wyoming hunting....on horses and mules....and many, many years, I went two times in a year......so that makes me an automatic expert at everything in Life.....and I would like a chance to meet your Uncle....'cause I am almost positive he & I would get along just fine...and I owned 35 head of horses and mules for about 25 years....some of the rankest nuckleheads anybody has ever seen....and I would put them animals up against any outfit in North America.....bar none....I am talking about we rode stock into the roughest country in all of North American for 40 years.....and back out again....over and over again....had to scotch hobble some of the stock just to get a pack saddle on 'em....but we always done ok....bottom line....we did it....over-and-over again....and that ain't no bullshit....so if I run into your Uncle, I'll buy him a beer...maybe two

@Tom Pliura I think we're all a little guilty of being a little too critical when we comment, myself included. Seems like you've had an eventful life .Good luck and happy hunting and fishing in the future.
My response disappeared this morning I feel ground work it something people that can't do do?? If you can't ride do ground work, I believe in crawling aboard and ride it out or push the horse into something All my horses no that NO is not an option and they must respond to go where pointed
I will only consider a stallion, no mares or geldings I want something handled very little but yes they have been handled Not ready to tie, never been saddled , some minor foot trimming but handled very little Most kick, bite and can not be tied, brushing is dangerous I buy them, pay cash and add an extra $400 to be cut I pick them up Friday afternoon to give me the weekend to devote to them Rio like most arrived Friday at 5. Unloaded and went straight to the snubbing post , 2 neck ropes and tied to the post to figure it out He will visit this post most of the next 2 days and after that all the time Friday night the snubbing , post and while tied brushed and his feet picked Saturday it is all day , post, brush, feet handled , saddle blanket, saddle of and on. When tightened they usually go down I do this routine 5 6 times Saturday I have set up a portable round pen where he is about 100 feet from other horses. Remember he has been isolated most of his life Sunday noon I get someone to crowd him against the wall and I climb aboard, sometime straight snaffle, sometime side pulls I climb aboard, my helper leads a few rounds then turns him loose I will ride him out, once calm, get off , unsaddle, put back in round pen Go home, back in an hour and do it all over again In a day or two, rio was Wednesday I head out on trail to start conditioning About a month into training I will pick a fight, a fight to settle who is boss and they never fight again He cam Friday night and by Tuesday when he heard my truck the girls would tell me he would get excited I believe if I am going to be the boss I have to be able to actually back it up He can run, buck, refuse, anything he wants and I will beat him at his game No one handles him, not clean stall, not feed, not put in or out I do everything personally and only kids or people that don't know how to ride are allowed on him I never miss a day without spending time with my boy They are the best in any barn
do you happen to have any videos showing any of the stuff you said you done...I am saying talk is cheap....and talking about breaking stallions is even cheaper...so I want to check your math......by looking at a video....or two....cause I can say that I can break a rhinoceros....but a good many fellers I know would call my bluff and asked to come watch....so I am wanting some videos of seeing you did all this stuff....and I will send a cab to your barn and have a feller to take the video and have him drive the cab with the video back to my barn...so's I can watch it...and I will tip the cab driver to boot......if you ain't got no video....that ain't no problem....cause I will pay good money to send a boy to take the video of all this stuff you say you can do with a rank stallion....call me day or night...and I will come to watch it myself....send me a telegram where to be...and I shall be there at the drop of a hat....if no telegraph booth nearby, send up a smoke signal....I will be waiting
@@tpliura Use to be one around for years called Strider Shadow but it is gone now , my computer is also gone and I can no longer find it I just don't want a mare, don't want a spoiled gelding so a basically unhandled stallion is what works the best for me I don't believe in playing games either The stallions as also cut right away but that doesn't take away from their bringing up until the point when I get them A horse that has nothing responds quickly when given something new and exciting
I would get the book round pen reasoning by John Lyons never get on a horse that wont give his head to pressure us old guys cant bounce like we use to so lots of ground work sacking him out also Clinton Anderson has a lot of great videos on starting colts
I don't believe in ground work, I believe in having someone hold him while I climb aboard and let him do his best to get rid of you. I have never had a horse more then 3 days without riding him. I wouldn't try riding a buck in that saddle either, no support from going over the head Aussie saddle good handful of mane, round pen and let them figure it out I will also not buy a mare
So now I'm genuinely curious about your method of training here, since you don't "believe in" groundwork, do you mean to tell me that you bring in a horse that has been completely unhandled, no vet/farrier work done, never had a halter on, nothing, and manage to not only halter the horse but also saddle it, and I'm assuming bridle it with a bit, have a ground person hold the horse and you climb on it and hold on until they give up? Do you run them in a chute to do this? What do you do when they give up bucking? How long before you can saddle and go outside the round pen to ride? Do they ever buck again?
I have never gone longer then 3 days to get on a new horse I might even climb aboard while tied to the snubbing post One 6 year old my wife had to distract him while tied to the snubbing post to nail shoes on him since it was winter and slippery out She kept playing around his mouth while I had to pick up his feet and nail studded shoes on and try not to get kicked I would never ride a horse in the saddle you are showing @@amandak3198
You are riding defeated right from the get go The hand on the saddle horn unbalances you I would ride with a rein in each hand and keep myself loose and swaying with the jump I am 76 and ride daily
Well they are definitely doing their best to break this one. No doubt it was later sold at auction as "un-trainable". Well no, I take that back, it was sold as "has had 3 rides put on, trainer just too busy to finish and doesn't want to see such a nice horse with a good start just sit and not get used...too much potential".
