Tieing To The Tail In Action 

When I was a kid, my uncle was a colt breaker, you'd got to his place and every colt had his tail tied with a loop. He'd catch them up 4-5 at a time, saddle and tie a head around, go grad another, you may see 4-5 at a time doing littel quiet bending circles, he'd monitor them, find one wo was now understanding, bend hi the other way. I never saw a fight, thrash or panic.. he TAUGHT them to understand...

These videos are great to compliment and put a visual to things you've explained in your book. Much appreciated!

Still following is awesome

Good job! Nothing wrong with leading by reins as long as he's following. If he needs to be pulled around handlers and horse need a bit more work.

So I’m watching this waiting for my well pump to thaw it’s 9* this morning but at least the wind is only blowing hard enough to have to jog after your hat.

The concept works. I’d run the reins through the stirrups. Helps keep his head off the ground.

Good looking colt he wants to be friends

It works

What's the benefit of tail tying verses tying to the saddle rear D?

Imagine your yoga instructor doing this to you. How supple you would be with your lips tied to your rectum. Does anyone remember the "Rhythm Collector"? Richard Shrek would tie the horses bit to the horses back feet. I worked cleaning stalls for this western pleasure trainer who tried the Rhythm Collector. It was one amazing wreck. The horse was being worked in the round pen when my boss hooked him up. Then the horse was asked to move forward, he panicked when he couldn't lift his head. The horse destroyed the round pen but luckily did not hurt himself. These are just thoughts as the horse in this is not suffering. He seems just fine with whatever is being taught.

Good looking colt. Any Smart Little Lena in him?

I was wondering, is there a specific reason why you drape the right rein around its neck and not tie it to the saddle horn or not loop it around it?

My only problem with the well bred horses is some of the deadheads that are made from them. Imo a deadhead is just as inferior to me as a horse that isn't well-bred or just wants to buck. Or spook.

when does the release come? what would clinton do?

can you show how u tie it ??
