This video is a first for us. Pat is teaching a young man to start colts using the methods that he has perfected over several decades and many hundreds of colts. In this video, we take you along on the day that the young man gets on his two colts for the first time. Prior to this video, Pat and Gus worked the colts in the round pen for several weeks. They roped the colts, did all the groundwork, and ponied them. This video shows Pat snubbing up the colts when Gus gets on. If you're not familiar with this practice, it means that a person on a broke horse dallies the colt's lead rope around the saddle horn while someone gets on a colt for the first time. The distance between the colt and the saddle horn is very short. And nothing, and I do mean NOTHING, will cause the person on the saddle horse to undally until the colt is walking calmly alongside the saddle horse. As Pat told Gus, "I will go to the ground with you if that's what it takes." So please children, don't try this at home if you aren't willing, able, and mounted well enough to make the same promise. I hope you enjoy this video and learn a lot from it. For more information, head to our website, www.thedisciplinedride.com .
