Hello my name is Therren McCray and I seriously enjoy watching your videos, I’m wanting to rope off a horse but honestly don’t know how to start a horse. I train horses mustangs and a few quarter horses in my past and I live in New Mexico on the Navajo reservation.
@@BarrettHouser thanks man! my uncle was actually a team roper with over 1mil in earnings, but he owns a machinery company and is always busy, but i’ve been putting in the effort
I just started and the best advice I have for you is learn how to rope on the ground first. Then learn how to ride. Then put both together when you’re comfortable. Be patient it takes time!
So I've recently been hired on to a livestock company and I'm trying to be as useful as possible. I have previous horse and gentle riding experience but am wanting to take it to the next level. I've been doing cattle processing but would really like to get horseback and help with gathering and branding aside from being on the ground giving shots. Thinking about going and buying my first rope tomorrow and to begin teaching myself how to rope. Any advice?
@@BarrettHouser Thanks! I ended up getting a King 5/8 35' ranch rope. I figured since most of what we do is branding and doctoring and all that it wouldn't make much sense to get a dedicated head or heel rope just yet when I'm still learning how to swing it haha Any suggestions for a cheap way to do a roping dummy? I've seen a few on saw horses and PVC pipe but not sure what I really need to be completely honest.
@@willswope2204 I usually do I just have a difficulty turning it over when picking it up on that starting swing, also I’m not the greatest at explaining things lol
Very sound advice, especially regards buying yer first horse. Green rider + green horse = black and blue
True! Thank you
That’s my hometown! Love your videos man, keep ‘em coming.
I live right across the road here.. that field in the video is where my horses are and we ride in that exact arena you are in.. small world

Thank you for watching!
Great video! i want to start team roping, but don’t know exactly how to get started or practice
Find some people in your area who can teach you. That’s what I did.

Just keep searching. Someone will help for sure.

Hey there Barrett! Can you do some videos of your thoughts on self carriage and collection?
I really like your horse … the black one … Can you T make a video and tell us about his Pedigree? Tks !!
Congrats on your everyday efforts 👏🏻👏🏻
Barrett good beginner video. I was wondering what drone you use to film with?
Mavic mini by DJI
you should try the match 3 by fast back
Will do for sure! Thanks
Never buy a green horse.....bay, sorrel, gray, buckskin, chestnut, grulla, paint or roan are all better than green.......lol.
😂😂 so true! Green doesn’t mean money when it comes to horses.

Any rope will work at this time. Just depends on if you want a head rope, heel rope or ranch rope. Good luck.

Just practice that hand turn over! You’ll get it.
