SAME

Congratulations! 🎉

That was a very sweet video

SAME when I was editing I couldn't stop laughing hahaha

This is the funniest comment I've read.

Thank you!! I have lots more ideas for videos that will hopefully be fun! I plan to do some stuff with teaching neck rope this week!

OMG! Your pfp, it's so cute! This isn't sarcasm he is adorable!! 😍🤩

Thank you so much that is so sweet, I am doing my best that's for sure! My channel is still new though so I plan to keep working on it and I have a lot of video ideas planned!

I hope you like my videos!!

ooo did you get it?

It really comes down to preference! Thoroughbreds are very common, they're super fast. There's also Argentine Thoroughbreds which are generally shorter, stocky and more handy. But there's also Quarterhorses, I've even seen Arab/TB crosses play polo. Generally no warmbloods though because they're generally too big.

@@haileyliberty4640 awesome thank you for the info. are appaloosa crosses good? I'm really short so I'm looking into something small for me personally.

@@pughorse1718 Yes totally! My friend has an awesome leopard appy gelding. Basically anything with a calm and smart brain can play polo with enough time and training!

Lots of ground work, my family trains and sells horses for a living and we do a lot of stuff in a round pen and in the arena working on their manners etc. Slowly showing them tack and the mounting block. Lunging or a round pen are normally best for getting the buck out, but for the horses who don’t really buck we slowly start putting our foot in the stirrup and then getting down, gradually getting on over time and lots of patience. Idk how other polo facilities break horses in but that’s kind of how we do it!

Honestly same 🙃

@@haileyliberty4640 i could try and show them your vid and say "SEE! THAT'S A GOOD CHRISTMAS PRESENT!" 😂

I like the first one a bit better!

Yeah! All of Mikes horses were there. I cut out a clip of me telling Comadreja how much I want her

@@haileyliberty4640 LOL

She is an Argentine Thoroughbred!

That’s literally how you ride a horse

@@lealagaming5619 hurting the horse is how you ride it? that sounds dumb

I’ve only been riding for a couple of months (can’t even canter off the lead-rein yet), but from personal experience, being hit with the whips/crops doesn’t hurt at all. I’ve been hit a bunch of times by the long lunge-whips on bare ankles and didn’t feel a thing. I also hit myself with my crop before using it on the horse and it was only very slightly uncomfortable (+ I hit myself a lot harder than I would hit a horse, I hit myself one the palms - one of the most sensitive parts of the human body, and horses have fur). I believe the big whips are used to encourage the horse to go faster with their sound, whilst the crops are used to give them quick cues.

@@Melanie-jo2vv they aren’t hitting the horse with the whips, they are hitting the ground

@@Melanie-jo2vv That is how you ride a horse, my child
