Fantastic demonstration. If every colt starter watched and fully understood this before swinging a leg over. Theirs and their colts life would be so much easier. Nice pony by the way. Thanks again for what you do, good Sir.

That was really a good, helpful explanation of the difference between speed and timing with your stop and release on that horse. Makes it perfectly clear. It's nice when you use a horse to show what you mean.

Bret that was a masterful explanation. The two words that stood out the most to me in the entire video were sophistication and cheesewhistle, both excellently descriptive words that get the point across well.

Great explanations! You make it easy to understand what your point is. As an long time instructor I was alarmed the first time I saw your toes pointed down so far. Then I realized you have no choice since you are so tall!! I'm 5'1" and have never been on a horse that I had to reach up with my heel!! Thanks for the duh and chuckle!

@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt any reason you don't wear spurs with an upward shank? I've seen long legged people wear them so they don't have to raise leg as much

@HorsemanshipAsAnArt Жыл бұрын

@@tracyjohnson5023 I do on more advanced horses. In Arizona I wore strait shank Chiuwawas one so I couldn't accidentally spurs one when they tripped in rough country and two so I could dang sure spur those iron belied suckers when it was time. On these better horses here in Nevada I have the same shank with a far less aggressive rowel. Broke horses I wear a copy of an old Kelly bros pattern that on old friend made, high goose neck kinda shank and a aggressive five point rowel.

It's been said that feel cannot be taught. You have to want it so bad that you relentlessly seek it with proper timing time after time.

Im Glad ive thought about this, alot and come to my own definitions cause, otherwise you would have confused me more than Bill Dorrance did.LOL I think its getting the Horse to react to your signal, with the least amount of brace or resistance. In order to accomplish this, you must understand and implement "Timing" to help them understand and respond with good feel of you, and you to them. Without either the horse will begin to brace, out of resentment and self protection.

Bret has small Tascam mic on his person, I match up the audio with the camera later on the computer. There’s probably better options out there but this way is frugal

Timing, don't ask for whoa when your horse is pushing off with one or both hind legs!

@HorsemanshipAsAnArt 10 ай бұрын

I never thought of it like that, I ask for whoa when the front legs are off the ground.

@kevinferguson3196 10 ай бұрын

What I mean to say is, I ask for whoa when the back legs are coming forward to land. Which is probably when the front feet are still off the ground. I am a novice, so I struggle with timing for sure.

@HorsemanshipAsAnArt 10 ай бұрын

I learned a lot of timing by watching my shadow, when I could see the front feet off the ground in my shadow I would ask for the stop until I could feel it.@@kevinferguson3196

to me feel is waiting for your horse and before his thought is gone say something to him that makes sense to him through your hands or seat if he is close to what you are asking you give immediate release so he will look for that spot again, its like horseshoes even close counts
