The fact that people disregard the entire ride over a piece of riding equipment that is being used properly is astounding to me. That horse enjoyed every part of that ride, and he was soft in every part of his body. Spurs or not, get your head out of your ass and enjoy the hours and blood, sweat, and tears it took to get this far, to this piece of art.
Weirdly those spurs with spinning wheels aren't legal here in Sweden. Those who made them illegal were probably not aware that spurs with spinning wheels are milder to the horse than the spurs with just a knob. The knob doesn't give as the wheel does. Anyway, it's possible to hurt the horse if kicking the spurs with force, with either type one use. Riding with spurs (correctly used) is just a signal to the horse to go faster, breake the pace, go left or right, change gallop and so on. It's not for punishing the horse. I'm no master at riding, but I have been riding with spurs on a lazy ass horse which refused to move faster than a walk and me short legged couldn't squeeze his chest hard enough to get him to move so my riding instructor suggested spurs on that horse. When I had another horse I took them off my boots.
Simply amazing. She's never been ridden with a bridle, I can only imagine the kind of hard work and dedication it took to get to that level. Congratulations to Luke, he did a fantastic job.
I’m so lucky to be living only an hour away from this place, we go every year many’s days during the month. Loved every part of it, hopefully I’ll be able to participate one day with my horse
@@CaitlynJneeCocke Are you kidding me??? Walk into a rodeo and see how many people can even walk their horses around bridleless. It would be very, very few. Yanking on extremely harsh bits, kicking hard with Spurs (unlike how he was using them), starfishing, forcing horses to live in a stall 24/7, and caring about prizes more than the horse's well-being is much, much more common than a connection like this.
Amazing your response so different from mine. I found it really terrible. The horse is like a wind up toy without spirit. Didnt watch all of it. Couldnt.
That horse is incredibly focused! Not only in being placid with such a large and vocal crowd, but to disregard all of that sparkle flashing around in its extensive peripheral vision! I definitely like a horse that has been treated well enough to be this confident and calm compared to the highstrung English-style horses I first learned to ride on as a kid. Impressive!
UNBELIEVABLE! A special and amazing duo, I can't even begin to imagine all the work that went into this. She sure loves him, you can tell she's giving him her all, this is just beautiful.
I went to congress to see the free style reining.....but I just HAD to watch this ride again! Amazing job!!!! You made it look easy when that level of riding is so challenging! Keep it up!!!
Absolutely beautiful human and equine- and absolute connection- and I look at the historians that connect the bit and bridal to when humans started riding horses and would ride horses into battle and I always felt that we didn't need a bit and bridle to ride horses- This is huge proof of that- it is also incredible advocacy to the humane treatment of horses where you see some painful bridal equipment being used on some horses which I have always been against. Anne Kursinski started show jumping in hackamore's and now we see this wonderful display of absolutely no bridal display- looks like he is using a breastplate or a lead around the shoulders and withers and neck and a lot of body language I also do believe that horses and humans can read each other in an almost telepathic manner and this proves it. 👏❤️🙏
Kudos to him if, he trained this horse with just a neck rope.👏👏👏 It's totally awesome when, a human has a great connection with these or any majestic critters.
Absolutely love this!!! This man found Gold in this horse here. I had a bay gelding, i could do anything on with the same type of set up. The tiny string around his neck. He was super sensitive so super responsive and loved to please. Switch leads every step at a walks pace. Slide to a stop, spin all the bells and whistles. Barrel raced, pole bending, and even roped on him like that. Absolutely amazing when the connection like that is there. It's like the only love that works and doesn't break. I still love that horse. Haven't seen him in years. (My partner, my friend i sure hope wherever you wound up, that you were well taken care of and loved as much as i loved you) minor side track yall. My bad. And spurs just speed the response time, keeping attention where it's needed. They too can sidetrack in high energy situations. This mare was doing her job, and doing it well. Great performance man 👏❤ hold onto that horse she's one of very few that one finds that bond.
WOW doesn't even begin to describe this. Collection and connection. Hmmmm makes you wonder why dressage competition allows/needs Roll Kur, hmmmm? Fabulous.
Wow sooo 🥇! We just ordered a Neck Rope for our Weanling! He comes home from Idaho In just a few days . My plan is what you just did . I saw this done in the 70’s . But not until you , have I seen it done Cowboy Style Beautiful stunning Horse . Really Nice Cowboy Clothes as well ! You are giving Horses a better Life 💜🐴💜Laura from California 🇺🇸
Praise The Lord for His wonderful creation the Horse! And in Revelation 19 Yeshua (Jesus in Hebrew) is coming back on a horse!! I started Liberty when no one heard of it and many horse people thought I was crazy🙃🤣. But yet they would ask me why my horse was so good under saddle! And when riding. We would go on trail with just a halter and lead rope. AND YES this takes some time to get there BUT SO WORTH IT!!! THE LORD BE WITH YOU ALL IN YOUR TRAINING AND RIDING🙏❤️
Wow! Beautiful. This shows love and a partnership between horse and rider! What an amazing example of passion and dedication. It really shows the flaws in our species when folks trash everything and moment. Nothing is safe from unnecessary judgment. Why watch the video if you're not appreciative of the content, just to fuel your negativity? Go get a passion that brings you joy instead. If you aren't there to witness the interaction in the flesh then pass no judgment, if you witness injustice INTERVENE. That is if you have a pair, rather than posing to have a set on the internet.
To all you so called judges out there in any horse discipline...this is what you should be judging on. Horses and riders can be a partner with out all that so called head gear..no bits, no bridals and no SPURS....this is the ULTIMATE.of any great performance you will ever need to judge..this just goes to prove..you do not need those barberic implements..to put on a great proformanc..it is all body language.. horses are the best at that....their life depends on it ....
Such a gorgeous horse. She has a beautiful head. Well done young man!..but yes the spurs bothered me a bit. I have seen this done with *Nothing* but the saddle!

Spurs or not, get your head out of your ass and enjoy the hours and blood, sweat, and tears it took to get this far, to this piece of art.
Agree spurs are for giving cues, just a piece of equipment that when used properly don't hurt the horse. It looked to me like that mare loves him.
@@sheryltoliver9975 you don't need spurs to give cues . Horses can be trained to work off leg cues .
@@CryMeARiver63 depends on the horse. Just like people, not all horses are the same or respond to regular methods.
@@sheryltoliver9975 and so are bridles , this is a wonderful ride not because of things used or not used it's talent

No bridle doesn't necessarily mean no head gear...could be trained in a bosal or a hackamore
It's not any harder than with a bridle. It's just different. Either way, you have to know what you're doing.
The horse did a better job! She was the one that had to respond to cues!
I've never understood the point of bridleless riding.
@@kimberlychester4358 it’s to show the importance of riding with your body rather than yankin on their face.
I’m so lucky to be living only an hour away from this place, we go every year many’s days during the month. Loved every part of it, hopefully I’ll be able to participate one day with my horse
That was absolutely beautiful. Seeing so much connection between horse and rider fills my heart with joy and hope.
It's normal to have that level of connection with your horse.
He had a rope around her look closely, a small rope but, when you have a very well trained horse. That's all you need.

The song fits so well, daughtry has such a nice voice for this. And the amount of trust is amazing between the horse and rider.
This brought me to tears. What an amazing display of trust dedication and hard work. Absolutely glorious.
Amazing your response so different from mine. I found it really terrible. The horse is like a wind up toy without spirit. Didnt watch all of it. Couldnt.
Tears of joy at her level of ability! Just WOW!

this is incredible!!!! a FOUR YEAR OLD?!
UNBELIEVABLE! A special and amazing duo, I can't even begin to imagine all the work that went into this. She sure loves him, you can tell she's giving him her all, this is just beautiful.

One can only hope and strive to have that kind of connection with a horse.
Bridleless and liberty show true horsemanship!
I went to congress to see the free style reining.....but I just HAD to watch this ride again! Amazing job!!!! You made it look easy when that level of riding is so challenging! Keep it up!!!
This is a wonderful partnership. Congratulations❤️

I’d love to see a warmblood do a canter pirouette from a stand still like this horse!
@@amberblyledge7859 I was thinking the same thing
