Hi! Great tips!
Teagan Sowers Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
Could you do a video on doing rollbacks, showing how to do it. I really want to learn
Tori Bisom I definitely could do that! I might get that one filmed this week and have it up! That’s one I always direct people to but I don’t have a video, good thinking on that! Thanks for the response!
So I know how to barrel race and I’ve done it before but my grandparents are the only one's who has horses and they don’t have any barrel horses but they do have a cattle horse that my grandma said I can play around with and try to do some things with it but I don’t know how it responds to body movement and how it respond to the barrels so if you have any tips on that it would really be appreciated..
I am going to a barrel clinic in January I think I have only done English and I need help what should I need to learn also I need a western tack brand that is cheap bc I am broke
Here’s a video of the tack I use:) it’s all on the cheeper side:) ua-cam.com/video/OfV_H8cTZPk/v-deo.html
Thank you for these tips! I will be in my first rodeo soon and the not comparing yourself tip really helps. I will be sure to watch more of your videos!

I taught my pleaser horse how to do barrels and I didn’t know anything about barrels. We are a great team and can go super fast.
Good for you!!
Can any horse be a barrel racing horse ?
Great tips =)
Ha! I've just had my second lesson... So, I am a tad new to this whole horse thingy. I had a great time and barrels seem to be way more fun than I ever guessed, Gonna go slow cause I'm an old guy as well. Your tips are heart-felt, thanks!
Do you have a video about how to train a horse to run barrels?
I don’t have any videos up on that! If you hop on a coaching call with me we can talk through that though. I charge $35 an hour. Text me for a spot: 801-989-4804
Hey! I have two amazing horses, i know how to ride and i’m pretty much just a new barrel racer, my 9 year old pally is a farm horse and we just don’t have enough for a good barrel horse, all i wanna do is have fun and go to rodeos, can i still teach myself on my pally and then teach my other bay?
Of course you can teach yourself!! I am actually mostly self taught! If you subscribe to my channel I have videos coming out and will be able to answer any questions you might have:)
I have been riding since birth an I use to barrel race but I took a break when I was around 14 because of family issues but I really want to get into it again but I feel like I'm too old to start up again I'm 17 now. I have my horse that I use to run with but she is now retired to I'm currently saving up to get another running buddy. Any tips on starting up again ?
Great video!! I have a Appaloosa gelding named Puzzle and he is 10. I do barrel racing with him and he is always so good! One time he refused the 3d barrel and I fell off. But all the other times he is great! My fastest run was, 16.240!
That’s awesome! Great job!
The wind is blowing in the mic sometimes you sound like you under water . 😁🤣 but thank u for the awesome explanation
Is a 13 year old gonna learn as fast as a 7 yr old? I'm pretty much starting fresh this summer?
Definitely! If the 13 yr old has been broke longer he will probably pick it up faster than the 7yr old:)
@@barrelracingtraininghelp thank you. I've had em 3 yrs but not able to train much. But now they r coming to my place so excited to start training
Can you show how to kick while galloping? I want to try barrel racing, I just don't know how to kick while galloping
Would love to try barrel racing! Sadly here in the U.K I would be a Lone Ranger :( it looks super fun! X
Aw dang that is so sad they don't do it there! Maybe you'll have to come to the US or Canada some day and try it out:)
I got my horse over 4 years ago and I'm just now learning/doing barrels and teaching her in the process. Sadly I can't learn from a barrel experienced horse. However, I'm taking things slow and checking myself (with your UA-cam/tiktok channel) before teaching her.
Awesome, that is a smart way to go!! Let me know if I can ever help you with anything:) make sure you are subscribed as I had new tips coming out every week.

Any tips on how to not get nervous in the alley
I’m beginning to barrel race at playdays so thxs for the tips!!!😊🙃🐴
That horse Girl Your welcome, let me know if there’s any videos you want me to film or have any questions!:)
okay thanks!
Ok question...... i’m going to a play day today and what are your personal tips for barrels?
That horse Girl here’s some tips that might help:) m.ua-cam.com/video/3QrOlcaIBbU/v-deo.html
okay thanks so much!
I messaged you on messenger on Facebook 😂 I didn’t know where else to ask a question without everyone seeing. My name is Cloey Wigger please help me it’s be stressful cause I don’t know what to do.
I just saw your message and I will get back to you;)
OK so I am just now starting out doing barrels and I don’t know nothing about them and like yeah 😢😢
What state are you in? I travel all over the US hosting clinics and have quite a few scheduled in 2023 and that would be a great opportunity to get help:)
1:30
...what about giated horse...?!?
I enjoy the tips and advice but demonstrating things like body position, etc, would be a real help.
I already have a video on body positioning:)
Oh my goodness I love love love your advice on not comparing yourself to other riders. It is so important because if you put yourself in a negative mindset, you ARE setting yourself up to fail.
I started riding when I was 15, and at that time I was always comparing myself to other riders my age/ younger riders. This was so unfair to myself because many of those riders had been riding since they were very little! Looking back I wish I had a better mindset, and instead of comparing myself to them, I should have tried to learn from them and improve myself.
Thanks for the great advice!!
i’ve been wanting to barrel race since i remember, wanted to know if 17 is too late to start barrel racing😢
It is never too late to start! There is no age limit:)
I just started barrel racing like a month ago and I’m 17 I thought the same thing but I did it anyway. You should do the same :)
I’m starting barrels tomorrow thanks for all the tips!
Aww that is so exciting!!!
Hey there! Thanks for the tips I have a few questions! Hanging onto the horn? I know it’s safer but I’d like to not do that so any tips for that?! Also I struggle with a posting trout and tips for that too! :)
Madi Keys hello! You can drop your stirrups to Gain more balance to let go of that saddle horn.
Madi Keys As far as trotting goes.. It all comes down to core and leg strength. It just really takes practice to stand up and down in your stirrups. If you can’t be on a horse to practice you can sit in a saddle on a stand and practice standing up and down to get that balance. It’s all about repetition and muscle memory
A lot of pros grab the horn around turns so your seat can be better
how can I send my runs to you Can you be my person that I send my videos too
Hi there! I do offer coaching calls, those would be a perfect time to go over your runs. Feel free to send me a DM on Instagram or TikTok under barrelracingtraininghelp and I can get you more info and signed up for a call with me:)
soooo i lease a horse and he can do barrels ishhhh buttttt he's never been to a show and neither have i so 1. what should i do if he freaks out in the gate?
2. what if i completely suck i know it's only my first race but like i don't want to embarrass myself
Have you checked the horse for ulcers? Poor saddle fit? Usually if a horse has problems going in the gate something is wrong health wise
@@barrelracingtraininghelp thank you so much! i will definitely check!!!
i love it
Barrelhorse 19 Glad you enjoyed!
I am just now starting to learn how to ride got myself a horse last week and I love him,
And I wanna start training myself and my horse how to barrel race,
So I have some questions, my horse is 9 years old do you think it will still work starting to train and barrel race with him?
And he's afraid of walking close to a tire or anything on the group how do I change that?
And when I try getting on him he keeps backing up, backing up, many times before I can get on why is that?
Oh yes for sure you can train the horse!:) Waking close to a tire? Not sure what you mean by that? Also if he’s backing up when you get on just move him in a circle around you till he stops then get on. Yes it will take some time though. Be sure your subscribed to this channel as I will have lots more videos and training tips coming out as well as the ones already here
@@barrelracingtraininghelp thank you very much the getting on him ill try that tomorrow and I'll tell you how if worked, and well I tried like instead with a barrel just with some tires to walk around and he keeps getting kinda spooky,,
@@HangWith_Naomi Sounds good!
I have my first barrel race this Saturday thanks for the tips 😁
Snickerdoodle And lynx Thats so exciting! Good luck! You’ll have to let me know how it goes!
How did it go??
bruh
hello, is it bad if i start training a 17 year old to barrel race
As long as the horse is sound and healthy go for it:)
I'm watching this because I'm so nervous. I've never barrel raced, but I've ridden western since I was 4. I have had one day to practice for a small local rodeo. Wish me luck -_-
xxequestrian_idiotsxx You’ve got this! I’m cheering for you!!❤️
thank you
Thank you so much for this video!
I feel like im the only boy barrel racer
Ohh there quite a few:) Way to represent!👏🏼
Any tips on how to stay in your seat more?
Carina Palacios go back to the basics. You can ride with out stirrups and learn to ride with your hips more instead of using your legs to hold on. Let me send you a video about body positioning that might help. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Carina Palacios here’s the video:) ua-cam.com/video/LVIL-YOdcDA/v-deo.html
i have been riding this horse that has barrel raced in the past but hasn’t in a few years. although i’m a beginner in barrel racing, i have been riding for a long time. i had to somewhat retrain her and refresh her memory ahah. hoping that we build together and learn things from each-other!
Aww that’s so awesome! Make sure to subscribe if you aren’t already for more barrel racing tips!:) let me know if I can do anything to help:)
-Breanna
I love that you wear a helmet! I thought that Fallon Taylor was the only pro who wore a helmet!
Gotta be safe:)
@@barrelracingtraininghelp Yep!
You should do a video on your ri ding story!
Ava Ashley I’ll add it to the list! Good idea!
@@barrelracingtraininghelp Thanks how are you?
If you can give me some tips about what to do about my horse could you! Every time I go to practice with him he won’t ever go into a trot he always bucks so I can’t practice for a show I feel so unprepared when it’s time for the show but at the shows he canners and acts fine I don’t know if he’s lazy or stubborn but I really need some help with getting him to even trot when I’m practicing.
Sounds like the horse is in pain somewhere. Have you checked the horse for soreness? Ulcers? Poor saddle fit?
@@barrelracingtraininghelp he has problems with his stifle I go to someone who treats him about every three months for that He should feel better after it and feel no pain in that area. Also I am sure that my saddle fits I tried multiple saddle fits and mine works good for the both of us. I don’t know what’s wrong and why he’s not cooperating when practicing.
@@ashleyandblue3499 I would make sure you have a good performance horse vet look over the horse. What is the horse doing specifically that is being so hard to deal with?
@@barrelracingtraininghelp all he wants to do is walk if I Try to put him in a trot or anything besides walking he will Buck
@@ashleyandblue3499 I would go back to some ground work, if you click this link it will take you to a video to help:) ua-cam.com/video/tRcDg_9PJZ0/v-deo.html
Hi I love your channel
Aww thank you so much!! Glad you enjoy!!
I’m kinda scared to barrel race since people I watch broke their neck, ribs, or legs while barrel racing... even tho they recovered I wanted to know if you have broken anything while barrel racing
Wolfie 4417 ua-cam.com/video/KVqoF9cVmA8/v-deo.html
Wolfie 4417 I’ve been in a bad horse accident but I was watched over this far and didn’t break anything.
Utahbarrelracer ! Thank you! I’m watching ur other video right now
what if you don't have a horse who knows how to run barrels, and you don't either?
Aurianna Hill the best thing you can do is find a really good barrel racing trainer and take lessons from them:) also learning online is a great option! If you aren’t subscribed to my channel it might be helpful to be, I post videos 3 times a week to help you guys learn how to run barrels and get help with training and so forth!
So helpful thank you!!!

Susi Diax Are you wanting to go in the direction of buying a barrel horse or taking lessons first?
Utahbarrelracer ! I want to buy a horse (so kinda like experience the it at the same time) but get a trainer or can i do it a home the training
Susi Diax What you could do is find a great trainer and buy a barrel horse from them and have them give you lesson:)

May Curt Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!!
I have a question! I already know how to ride a horse but I can’t own my own horse as for I don’t have a barn lol, do I need to own my own horse to do barrel racing cause I’m really wanting to do it!
Makalyn Patrick nope if you can find a barn to ride there sometimes the trainers will let you borrow there horses for a price but you just have to get creative with a way to do it:)
Utahbarrelracer ! Okay thank you so much!!💛💛💛
Makalyn Patrick no problem! Just remember the more value you can ad back to them the more you will be able to get value from them:)
do you have to go really fast in your first rodeo that you go to?
Nope! Go the speed your comfortable with:)
I love your videos thank you! I used to do some barrel racing when I was real young but it’s been so long. I’m thankful I have great balance when turning but I’m still going to use your tips and tricks to help refresh me when I get back under the saddle again soon. Would love to chat with you personally sometime about barrel racing, it’s been a passion that I want to make a career one day. I don’t know very many people with horses where I live but I would love to be trained under a pro!
Love that!! Your amazing! Keep up the great work!!❤️

Hello! I'm still pretty new to the barrel world, what exactly is a time onlies?
Hey! Time only are just a practice run basically. You just pay like $3 and make a run to get a time but it doesn’t count for anything. It’s basically to get young horses used to the jackpot scene:)
@@barrelracingtraininghelp Ohh okay, thank you so much!

Thanks 😊
@@lauraokland9623 of corse!😀 Let me know if you have any other questions
@@barrelracingtraininghelp ok
@@barrelracingtraininghelp that vid helped a lot. I will tell u how the barrel race goes!
🤩
Hi can I ask a question how do you loop around a barrel without being scared?
Tomi White first it is important to pinpoint what you are scared of exactly?
@@barrelracingtraininghelp yeah and that's looping around a barrel when ever I do it I feel like hes gonna slip and we will fall and I'll end up with a bad broken leg even though he is my sister horse and she used him specifically for barrel and would place in every rodeo she went to I've also just have had a lot of bad things happen to me on a horse like them just take off on me and run as fast as they can and I'm scared that he will do that.
Tomi White so if your afraid of loping around a barrel I would say scale back a little bit. Focus on riding and having the basics down. I am not saying this is your problem but a lot of times if people are scared they aren’t confident in there riding abilities. Weather that’s your situation or not that might be something to think about. Another thing is you want to do is interrupt your thought pattern of telling your self you are afraid of something happening. Tell your self something positive instead. So instead of saying I am afraid of falling, say “ I am going to ride this horse so beautifully” the trick is what ever you focus on will happen. But like I said don’t be afraid to scale back and work more on your basics and work your way back up. Does that help?
@@barrelracingtraininghelp yeah that helps a lot thanks!
Tomi White no problem
Love the tips
Glad you enjoyed! Make sure your subscribed to see more barrel racing tips 💯
