I just spit my coffee out -when Pat said, it would get his hands shaking.
Pretty cute!
I wonder if he ever got treated for that fencing allergy...
Thank you for taking the time to show us your methods. I really enjoy listening and watching true horsemanship. No ego just horsemanship.
Love this video an how much this mare progressed in three months. Pat sure knows how to put a handle on a horse. An how fair he is in his training of the horse.
Pat, you are a national treasure! Thank you so much for these videos.
What I really like is the genuineness of Pat. Unlike some other individuals who are for sure ready to and have taken many dollars off of innocent people that just want to get better with their horses. Too many in this venue are ready to clean people out if they can.You Pat are a fine example of a real good person of whom there are so few of these days.
Gonna miss that good looking mare, you can tell by her willingness she's getting her mind right.
I learn something new and/or useful in every vlog thankyou Pat and Deb.
Love this channel..., such pure wisdom from years spent doing the job well is very hard to find. Well done !
So cool to see another person showing it all, the good, the bad, and the stuff that happens when working with horses, especially horses with issues you didn't cause. Also the mental side and what a troubled horse looks and how sometimes you have to just hang in there through the arguing until the mind comes back around. Hope this finds you and yours having a great day.
This channel is PURE gold- so glad I found you!
I guess im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
@Zev Sergio instablaster =)
@Anthony Alfredo i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Anthony Alfredo it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account!
@Zev Sergio You are welcome =)
All those little steps create a solid decent horse. Patience and going slow is soooo important!
So good to see your videos & listen to you. Thanks so much for all your videos .
Outstanding information and stories!!! Oh, and I live in southeastern Washington state.
Thank you for this advice Pat.
Another great video.
Thanks so much. My mustang mare gets resentful n just putting miles on her is great advice. It rings true.
Excellent ! Good Teacher !
She is coming along great! I used to play cowboy for a friend on his ranch and summer grazing permit, he gave me a snotty paint mare to ride. After several weeks of gathering cows she got really nice to work with. I let another fella ride her and I almost didn't get her back! Thanks for sharing your videos.
I always learn something watching your videos. Thanks
Thanks for another video.. I can’t get enough! Another diamond in the ruff!
Simply awesome ❤️
Thank you Pat for the lessons. The saddle information is exactly what I was looking for. Also the stopping action on the bay mare is great help for me and one of my horses.
Gonna miss that purty gal but looking forward to what else ya got coming ! 😊
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
I sure hope the owner takes the time to replicate your riding style. The mare is doing really well but an inconsistent rider could really wreck the awesome job that you have done. She is a beauty. Great job. No need to mail me $29.95, ha ha.
Really enjoy seeing the progress on horses, and enjoy listening to Pat talk about it..
the boss will be happy with this handsome mare sir, you two are a pair,thanks for sharing pat
Really enjoy these clips. Thank you !
WOW,another amazing video of wisdom DEL VAQUERO CALIFORNIANO,MR PAT,UN GRAN HOMBRE,AN INSPIRATION FOR EVERYBODY, QUE DIOS TE BENDIGA,from JALISCO,MX.
I learn/confirm so much from these videos! Thank you for doing them!!
Pat asked if anyone knew where Badger California was located. I have to imagine that he knows where it is, but I'm happy to tell him that Badger is almost due East of Fresno on highway 245. It sets between Auckland to the east and Pinecrest to the north east. Population runs about 139.5 now a days. I love your videos, Thanks and Happy Trails to you and yours.
As always good information . Thank you .
I’m always looking forward to your informative videos.Thanks Pat & Deb. P.S. lm going to be on the lookout for those peasant killers.
Goot job young fella appreciate what you’re doin keep it up!!
Enjoy your videos, THANK YOU‼️👍🐴 Vinny 🇺🇸
I put a 2*4 board through the stirrups, tie a rope centered on that 2*4, flip the rig upside down and hang it from a beam. Spray down the whole stirrups leather front and back with warm water, and leave it hang over night to dry. Whenever I'm not using a saddle for a week or so, that board goes back in the stirrups with them turned back while it sits on its rack to maintain that nice curl around my leg. Never thought to actually twist that last 4" or so of the strap. Thanks for the tip. And there sure is a HUGE difference in this bay mare from the other video of her in the ring bit to this one! Just the way she carries her head is much prettier now, and looks like she can do more, instead of just plodding around, flat-footed. You got her thinking, now what we gonna do?
Y'all come a long way on that mare. Doma vaquera would probably translate more accurate into stock horsemanship. A friend tells me that for competition today in Spain certain PRE breeding is more popular for doma vaquera (a little more cowy) and others more popular for doma classica ( a little more barocque-style horse), which indeed grew out of the necessities of noblemen and military to kill peasants serving in opposing armies.
Thanks for the Stirrup tips
I have been really enjoying your videos.
Thanks for pointing out that you can get the change in a horse at a walk not chasing them out of breath with a stick I have got more out of your videos than you will ever know I have slowed down in all the things I do and wow I have saw a big change in my horse and my life Wish you were in Ohio thanks
i enjoyed another great video and hope you will continue these wonderful lessons but for the sake of us nervous folks could you please refrain from any mention of post hole digging in the future.
hahahaha Anthony Nelson ! seems like so many men are nervous of post hole diggin
I like her!
I had flashbacks to being hung up by the spur shank after a fall and wanted to stand up and testify about having a knife real handy.
That is a good point that we often take for granted. Thanks for bringing it up.
Hello Mr and Mrs Puckett I'm wanting to purchase some new stirrups was wondering what stirrups and size does Mr Puckett use on his saddles. Thank ya I appreciate it.
We ride bell style Monel stirrups 4 inches deep.
poco a poco. you taught me that
Fencing tools could cause ringbone if you aren't careful
Also, in many other videos. Pat let's his air out. Is there a time, cue, or event that suggests when to do that?
It’s a good habit to get into when riding. Whenever you ask your horse to do something, you exhale as your horse responds. If you constantly hold your breath, your horse, a prey animal, will wonder what’s wrong. So get into the habit of exhaling loud enough for you to hear it. The horse knows whether you can hear it or not. It’s just something that helps you to remember to exhale.
So when Pat asks her to stop, he uses his skeletons his hand at the same time, right? Does this rein technique work for a snaffle or is the snaffle always to handed? I’m assuming it’s for a western bit only
Everything happens at the same time with the bit and the snaffle whether your riding the snaffle with two hands or one hand.
I have a quick question. My mare can be a little nervous, and in the trot she tends to get her head up like shes nervous. So I just been moving foward and letting her figure out that she doesnt need to that. Is that the right idea or should I be encouraging from time to time with the reins to start bringing her head down? Thank you for your time and thank you for the knowledge and traditions you guys are so willing to pass down. to other
If her head is up, that’s nothing to worry about it. If her nose is out, you should gather her in intermittently. Your goal is to be able to trot her in collection.
@@PatnDebPuckett yes ma'am my end goal Is to have her collected whenever needed and shes good in most other areas it's just when things get a little sped up. Thank you so much for your guys time
I think it would be great to take the camera out on the trail, just to watch your team, for as long as you like.
In the video of roping this bay mare in the round pen she took it very well. I did that with my horse and it got so panicked it tried to jump out of the round pen. Do I continue and just ignore his panic keep throwing the tail behind the withers and rope him??? Any advice is very appreciated thanks in advance.
Like watching these videos very informative.
No. You have to stop the chaos. First you would check your demeanor and your breathing. Then you cut the horse off and don’t let him run and run by walking to the fence and turning him back. Then walking to the opposite fence and turning him back. If he is still too panicky, you would put the halter on, tuck the rope in your belt, and throw the tail of the rope while walking in a circle toward his hip so he’s stepping over behind. Don’t throw the rope like you’re trying to kill a snake. Be smooth. Do this until you can work your way back up to turning him loose.
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I appreciate it greatly
Hey pat n deb
Bin watching you from the start with that mare
I reckon you got her to go better in your bit
Rather than that bit you ended with
I know you said you think it’s cross dressing
But if she performs better and is more relaxed
Ain’t that better for her quality of life,just sayin
The bay mare rides really well in a bit now. She just had to gain confidence and get over being ridden poorly for a long time. She’s a ranch horse which means she has to be ridden one handed, tuned into her rider’s body, because she will be used for roping, working cattle in alleys, and working gates.
How do you go about measuring your correct size?
When you stand up in your stirrups, there should be about 2 inches clearance.
@@PatnDebPuckett yeah okay thanks that gives me an idea.
What size seat is your saddle, I seen on website I could either order a new one or buy one be you’ve already been riding in
We don’t have any used saddles available right now so your only option is to order one in your seat size. The timeframe is around 2 1/2 months.
@@PatnDebPuckett ok thank you, I want one cause they supper nice looking saddle, just can’t swing it right now but hopefully by fall I’ll be able to buy one, I just bought a used courts saddle, but really like the way your style saddle looks. It 3,000 plus shipping right?
@@troybarbare9191 That is correct!
I probably missed it in past videos. So this might be a dumb question. But, anyways, do you use the same stopping method with the snaffle as this bit? I have made that was pulled on constantly. She did that head toss thing all the time. She is improving
In the snaffle, your body does the same thing but you’re riding two handed with your hands low. So, your legs come off, drop your spine, and exhale all at the same time and if the horse doesn’t stop with these signals, she will run into your hands. I have one question back at you. If this is an older horse and you ride western, what is standing in the way of you riding in a western bit?
@@PatnDebPuckett lack of confidence in myself to do the right thing for the horse. I see so many people riding with a super tight rein. Even bloody mouths. Also, we work on a large ranch. Some of the horses I work with others ride. And I can see they don't have soft hands. I working very hard to improve myself. And hopefully make the horses lives less stressful.
I have 12 horses in all different levels of training. So the question is in general. One mare has been ridden very hard. With super tight reins and hardly any body contact. Tosses her head Every time you ask anything. Braces her body against the bit. I have ridden her 5 times with great improvement. I assumed I should ride her with a snaffle to soften her mouth and mind. Yes I am going to order your snaffle
Thank you soooo much for your help!!
The purpose of a snaffle is to teach the horse lateral work...sidepassing, separating the hindquarters and the forehand, etc. It doesn’t really have the effect of softening the mouth. In fact, some people actually ride worse in a snaffle because they have the misconception that it’s a milder bit than, say, a grazing bit or a half breed. I would say that more damage to the tongues and bars of horses’ mouths is from snaffle bits. We have found that our horses have a certain level of relief when we transition them to regular western bits. This has NOTHING to do with the modern “correction” bits. They should all be thrown in the trash. But if your horses can sidepass both directions, turn on the forehand, the hindquarters, and stop off of your seat, it’s time to make the transition. As far as having other riders, I would say that a grazing bit with a leather curb strap is actually milder than a snaffle in the wrong hands. And those riders will be able to work a gate and swing a rope more efficiently. The horses will be fine and will be relieved. On the majority of ranches we’ve been on, the little kids ride in grazing bits because they can’t hurt their horses’ mouths but they have more control and the horses don’t get as dull as if they were yarding them around in snaffle bits.
Are your stirrups 4” or 5” on the bottom?
4 inches
No footage on sorting in the alley.....🙁
