Rhett and his family are the real thing. I have had the pleasure of visiting this ranch since Rhett is also my cousin by marriage and a friend by choice. His family lives this every day and this video shows that as long as men like Rhett and his family are around, the true Cowboy is not a dieing breed, but a living being that embodies the character that helped to build America into the great nation it is. Hope to see this commentary get even more press and going viral.
Can you even IMAGINE what this country or (even the world), would be like if everyone worked this hard and showed this much DEDICATION and RESPECT to FAMILY and RESPONSIBILITY? Thanks, PD, for sending this my way. I'll be forwarding it to everyone I know! A slice of heaven and inspiration to boot!
this is so true i am only 14 but my grandpa is an old cowboy and at 75 still works at the rodeo and breeds quarter horses. he has taught me how to swing a rope and tie a calf since i was about 2 and taught me to tie at 5. and now i am ready to start team roping and tiedown with horses my family has bred. and i have trained
The second guy that is shown is my cousin, both of the little kids on the small horses are my cousins too. I feel so blessed getting to spend time with them and the way they live there life.
I am from Serbia. I am very interested in the lifestyle that you lead. It is so nice to live with nature and horses, it is very nice. I wish that at least once in a lifetime visit such a ranch in Wyoming. Greetings from Serbia.
Those 2 kids on the shetland pony's are just so darn cute! His accent makes me miss Oklahoma. Wonder if my mustang mare could do an endurance ride from WI to OK? lol
Love this culture, love this way of life, and I hope to have the chance to live it myself one day. I had my dream for some time but I was then set apart from it, and I've cried so many times for that...Here from where I am now I keep praying every day for you cowboys to keep this all alive, no matter what people say. Please don't let this dissappear! :)
loved this video remined me when i lived in Colorado and hanging out with the cowboys out there... I have to say though that awesome country side looks goofy with those damn wind turbines in the back ground
All I ever dreamed of since being a kid is becoming a cowgirl. That dream will never fade. I love God's great creation, the horse, and His beautiful country that is still intact. Thanks for sharing this video of yours. It is beautiful.
LONG LIVE THE COWBOYS!!!! We need y'all to keep food on our tables ! Thanks for sharing a part of your life with us all. Kids were awesome and cute on the ponies :-) Keep on-keeping on. God Bless y'all
Hunter Frymire That sounds like my dream life lol. I had to beg my parents for 11 years to get my first horse. He was an Appoloosa colt I trained myself. Then I started barrel racing and did rodeos a lot which led to me get others horses, and now, about a year later in running in the 2D with both my horses :) *Long Live The Rodeo Life* (btw the point of this was not to brag. Just saying its not impossible to come a long way in a short amount of time)
Great video, makes me remember when I was growing up on a small ranch in the Panhandle of Texas. BTW, I have a friend who has the Park Springs ranch a few miles straight east of Anton Chico.
I am a grandma and I live in the country. I have 3 grand children who live in the Bay area California...my dream has always been for them to live the country life, away from the crime, away from the Media and being glued to the TV and cell phones and game machines. So far it's only stuck with the youngest one, she's 11 yes. old...So I will leave my my entire inheritance to her..Home and property, pick up trucks and animals, all paid off...but she will have to work hard to run and maintain it all. The country life is the best life for anyone, country people are the best people u will ever meet . If we could take all of our troubled youth out of the cities and have them work on a ranch for just 3-6 months, with nothing but a horse and a rope and good country people we would have way less crime in America.. And much happier, productive kids..Thank u for this video, it made my day, your kids look wonderful, healthy and happy...
i hate seeing Acres being sold to suit man to build houses and buildings and grow cities from small towns in Texas. i really hope Ranches dont get smaller and smaller to the point they are all gone. i love me some horse riding and moving cattle in Texas
Jorge Vargas I'm saving up to by my own land in Arizona. I'll set up a personal ranch so I can be off the grid more. I'm hoping my land in the future will always be in my family for generations.
Jorge Vargas don't worry buddy !!! You paying too much attention to the cities !!! There's plenty of land to go around for ranching , go drive around the country , and you'll see that you're worrying about nothing !!
Suzie Paris ranching is like any other things in life , if you're not borne in to it , it takes extra effort to make it happen , no one can make things happen from one day to the other , even if you had the money needed to start , more than likely you will go broke because you have no experience , everything in life requires experience to succeed , in order to acquire experience one must get exposed and in the process things can go wrong
I think people's definition of what a cowboy is always changing. My grandfather taught me how to sort cattle horseback. By being able to bring a pair out of a herd of a couple hundred. Now I no longer know of anyone that can do that anymore. At least around where I cowboy anyway. One of the dying arts is seeing a master horse/cattleman working in the herd with calm precision.
This young cowboy looks too dang young to have 2 kids! Thats a compliment to ya. I miss ranching. No bullshit, I was raised on on a ranch. Best time of my life. Like other small operations, we had no other choice but to sell.
cornshucker77 they’re not clean if you count the oil used to make them cause they don’t make a single green watt of power before they are needing a rebuild
Ahh! I love this! I need more room to run with my Arabians- Let me know if you need more hands to work your cattle w/ you- but you've got to teach me to rope first! Love this video- thanks!!
Randy Dandy Really???? So you assume EVERYONE owns and can afford land in order to keep a horse? What dreamland do YOU live in? Here, board for a horse is about $400-$500/month Each horse. Not including special feed, farrier, or vet care. How many do you own? How much is the farrier every few months per horse? How about wormer? Bedding? Feed, some are NOT easy keepers and they do require a higher grade of feed. I hope with that attitude you do not own any horses!! By what you claim, you just have to let them graze, no meds, vitamins, wormer or even a Blacksmith's care. Shocking!! I guess my priority was wrong, I put my kids and family first!!!
***** For your info I own a horse and he is in a 5 acre pasture on my farm of over a 100 acres and he cant eat hardly any of the grass! I have to bush hog it twice a year with him in it! He is in excellent shape and gets grain fed once a day which is very cheap! All that other stuff you listed is hog wash!! No horse needs all that! If you are paying $400 a month I better turn my farm into a horse farm for the city ppl who think horses need all that crap you listed! I could make a fortune! Get rid of the soybeans, lets rent space to idiots who think horses need all this useless attention several times a year! You are overpaying and over doing it on the horses. You must be a woman!
Randy Dandy Well good for you. I have other priorities at this time, I think my neighbours would object to a horse in the backyard! Someday when I can and have the land for it, I will have horses again. You care for your horses as you see fit, as long as it is not neglectful and you can get away with not having a farrier come out, not use wormer, and never have a horse get injured, you are right, they don't cost much. It is when something happens and they get ill or injured.
Randy Dandy Horses do need to be wormed, and should be shod if riding them on hard terrain. Where I grew up the soil was sandy loam, and the horses there didn't have to be shod, but their hooves had to be trimmed regularly. It depends on where you live as to whether your horse will need to be fed hay, but sweet feed is expensive. I grew up on a 47,000 acre Texas ranch, and have been around horses and cattle since I was a baby.
I like the second guy. His values and beliefs and outlook on the way folks are today runs parallel to my own. Too many country kids end up in big town/city schools and turn into brats/whiners and lose their family values.
I want this life real bad i dont have enough land to inheriete to start a ranch but i plan on goin into the military to get enough money to start one im taking ag classes in school right now is there anything else that could help pursue my dream???
OMG little kids on ponies. Too cute! More daddys need to put their little ones on ponies. Ponies need a job too. I had a pony at 5 and rode him til I was 10. My pony and I stood out as the cutest pair in the riding club and even got awards for the youngest rider or smallest pair at horse shows or in parades. What great memories this video brings back
It’s not cute when the ponies are getting their faces ripped off as you saw the little boy was doing or wearing the biggest shanks I’ve ever seen as the little girl had her pony in
woow love the culture of United States, my dream is to live in Texas, but I do not think my dream is fulfilled. I love country music and cowboys. Greetings to all Americans from Argentina
Yes the modern American Cowboy came from Mexican Vaqueros. Gunpowder originated in China, but we didn't get battlefield rifles until that technology was repurposed, in Europe. Technologies, ideas ,lifestyles, etc are constantly being improved upon, and redefined. The modern American Cowboy is its own thing so don't try to take away from that culture when it's clearly it's own. It's only been inspired by something else which is the story of everything in human history.
Yes! You are correct! My dad was a cowboy ! And I learned lots from him . One was to put the cigarettes down I watched him die of lung disease and my sister and my brother in law . So do your kids a favor !
100 million? interesting. can you give me the website that backs this number up? always interested in that portion of my heritage. always amazed at the inaccurate numbers thrown out by both sides of the discussion. grandma was Ojibwe.
I cannot stand hearing people say "I know how ta' ride horse," And they don't know how to even get in the saddle. My dad tells me everyone knows how to ride a horse ( Sarcasm if you couldn't tell)
It cracked me up I hate seeing my kids go to school, then starting to act like turds just like those city kids. I was raised in town, so much truth to that.
I loved this. I'm sick and tired of people using calf tables and atvs to work cattle. We need more farm and ranch raised people to run the world. People with morals values and work ethic.
my grandfather always were his hat and i have my horses and i had to train her because we didnt have the money to send her to the trainor and i wear my hat too but not everyone gets it over here because im from texas so here they just look at u like ur crazy
Decorus Hernandez I feel ya. My grandfather passed away when I was 3, but now, 10 years later, I'm proud to be able to say i rodeo in his hat. Horses are my life. I literally wouldn't know what to do without them.
i know this kind of sounds stupid, but do you have to come from a ranching family to be a cowboy? I have a few horses, and i can rope a dummy, but my family mostly farms sheep- Does that mean i can't be a cowboy?
Stuart Weber Not at all. You're decisions are what determine your life. Its your own story and *nobody* has the right to determine what you can or can't be. :)
I LOVE that countryside and outdoor living. It's what I'm all about but huge spurs and horrendous bits are not for me. Love the way the kids take part. It's lovely.
Rhett and his family are the real thing. I have had the pleasure of visiting this ranch since Rhett is also my cousin by marriage and a friend by choice. His family lives this every day and this video shows that as long as men like Rhett and his family are around, the true Cowboy is not a dieing breed, but a living being that embodies the character that helped to build America into the great nation it is.

I really liked that song at the end. God bless!
I am from Serbia. I am very interested in the lifestyle that you lead. It is so nice to live with nature and horses, it is very nice. I wish that at least once in a lifetime visit such a ranch in Wyoming. Greetings from Serbia.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video.
Adding to my faves.
Five Stars *****
Thanks for posting!
Man! You have a wonderful family and life!
Cowboys are hard workin'. Some really deserve respect.
I have love and the utmost respect for all cowboys because i have the cowboy spirit in me
Great live, you do it properly. Thumbs up.
The most American thing I ever watched, thanks for the video 😁
don't get no better'n this, thanks for sharing your family
Those 2 kids on the shetland pony's are just so darn cute! His accent makes me miss Oklahoma. Wonder if my mustang mare could do an endurance ride from WI to OK? lol
I love that talking on his phone as he's training his horse. :)
Peliculas cowoy
Love this culture, love this way of life, and I hope to have the chance to live it myself one day.

Ed V they didn’t stole our culture it exist thru out Mexico
Ed V fhey just copy us
loved this video remined me when i lived in Colorado and hanging out with the cowboys out there... I have to say though that awesome country side looks goofy with those damn wind turbines in the back ground
I threw the smokes away 37 years ago for my kids.
All I ever dreamed of since being a kid is becoming a cowgirl. That dream will never fade. I love God's great creation, the horse, and His beautiful country that is still intact.
Thanks for sharing this video of yours. It is beautiful.
LONG LIVE THE COWBOYS!!!! We need y'all to keep food on our tables ! Thanks for sharing a part of your life with us all. Kids were awesome and cute on the ponies :-) Keep on-keeping on. God Bless y'all
i would love to have grown up on a big ranch but at least i grew up on a farm and been a riding and roping since i was 4
LONG LIVE COWBOYS

Great vid PD. I hear all the time from people that work in offices that they would switch places with us horse people anytime..
One word for this video "AMEN"
The song at the end is really nice.

We are in Saudi Arabia Educate camels
Greetings from camelboys🐫 to cowboys🐂😂😂✋🤦♂️
"kids go to school and turn into little turd heads, like town kids" couldn't be any truer.
My heroes have always been cowboys ❤
i hate seeing Acres being sold to suit man to build houses and buildings and grow cities from small towns in Texas. i really hope Ranches dont get smaller and smaller to the point they are all gone. i love me some horse riding and moving cattle in Texas

Antonio Martinez yes
Quote from the Yellow Stone TV Show,That's Economic Revolution.No one can stop it.
not only just kids, lot of adults would love to learn to, never to old to learn
Iv lived on a ranch my whole life, Iv team roped for 6 years, Iv been bull riding for 3, long live cowboys!
I can only say "Outstanding"!!!
Lucky family to have the life that they do ranching is as good as it gets in my mind
I agree with you Jorge vargas i grew up in Florida i know the feeling

Great video! WHat is the song at the end or who sings it? Very nice.
"I'm slylin' and profilin' what are you doin?" Best thing I've ever heard
Great video! What is the name and who is the artist singing the song at the end of the video?
i want to work on a ranch like that only thing i would go after if i were to work at a ranch like that is experience....
Yes Sir--the good life. Thank you Lord!
This young cowboy looks too dang young to have 2 kids! Thats a compliment to ya.
I miss ranching. No bullshit, I was raised on on a ranch. Best time of my life. Like other small operations, we had no other choice but to sell.
I know those wind turbines are a clean energy source but they sure are an eyesore. Cluttering up the horizon.
What's the difference between them and big electric line towers?
I don't like the towers either.
Noisy too.
cornshucker77 they’re not clean if you count the oil used to make them cause they don’t make a single green watt of power before they are needing a rebuild
Way cool. I have always loved Union County, New Mexico.....
Who's doin' the sangin'?
Great song!
Ahh! I love this!
I need more room to run with my Arabians- Let me know if you need more hands to work your cattle w/ you- but you've got to teach me to rope first!
Love this video- thanks!!
Like he said, he don't care what other people think, even on real ranch, no matter what the animal whacko's think.
I wish i could find the song at tail end of video if any one knows it please help. Thank you
Oh lord Let there always be Cowboys! The world is changing but somewhere there will always be Cowboys trying to keep it going.
Life doesn’t get any sweeter than that🐴
I would have loved being on a Cattle ranch.
Nice caw, Nice Barn
Feathers hanging in the truck. I like this guy and I have never met him.
Then there are those of us who cannot afford a horse, 14 years riding, training, breaking horses, and some coaching. I miss it.
It costs very little to own a horse. Most of what they eat is grass.
Randy Dandy Really???? So you assume EVERYONE owns and can afford land in order to keep a horse? What dreamland do YOU live in? Here, board for a horse is about $400-$500/month Each horse. Not including special feed, farrier, or vet care.

@peiper25 what is the song? Great song!
I loved that little girl on her mini!!! Shes going to be a rodeo queen lol
Can somebody please tell me the name of the song at the end
I want this life real bad i dont have enough land to inheriete to start a ranch but i plan on goin into the military to get enough money to start one im taking ag classes in school right now is there anything else that could help pursue my dream???

would you stop saying that people do not like that so do not do it again do you know what a cow is ? I do I have cows and pigs
+Marshall Pierce dafuq?
Marshall Pierce ya mean cattle. Unless you do only have cows.
It’s not cute when the ponies are getting their faces ripped off as you saw the little boy was doing or wearing the biggest shanks I’ve ever seen as the little girl had her pony in
Dumb question. One thing about the west and south you see alot of open top stock trailers. any reason for this preferance?
I like the song at the end what's the name?
Wish I could be free and happy like that..💝
nice good song👍👍👍👍
Nice video, Brethren.
They are in New Mexico and, I am guessing from the wind turbines, somewhere in Texas respectively.
What is the song in the end called?
Cowboy up
I live up here in wyoming I love it

Greetings to all Americans from Argentina
Actually, this originated in MEXICO, thank you!
yall here see Texas was once part of Mexico so basically both

Cowboy/Vaquero is Mexican culture. The anglo has appropriate our culture. You like American cowboys? thank the Mexicans.
Elio Rocha your Mexican music was appropriated from my German ancestors. Say thank you for all the fun you've had dancing to it.
Long Live Cowboys
I love watching these men at there work real hot blooded hard working men sorry and women
Yes! You are correct! My dad was a cowboy ! And I learned lots from him . One was to put the cigarettes down I watched him die of lung disease and my sister and my brother in law . So do your kids a favor !
from where coming the Name Cowboy ? from Great Britten ore America ?
100 million? interesting. can you give me the website that backs this number up? always interested in that portion of my heritage. always amazed at the inaccurate numbers thrown out by both sides of the discussion.
grandma was Ojibwe.
I cannot stand hearing people say "I know how ta' ride horse," And they don't know how to even get in the saddle. My dad tells me everyone knows how to ride a horse ( Sarcasm if you couldn't tell)
I grew up working cattle on my dad's ranch in west Texas, just assumed everyone else in the world did the same.
It just Mexico
good job cawboy
It cracked me up I hate seeing my kids go to school, then starting to act like turds just like those city kids. I was raised in town, so much truth to that.
What’s the song at the end??
This is real life of cowboyz
You know, what is the song?
Amazing and great people
God bless Texas
2:49 WOW that horse needs a new bit OR the kid can pull stop pulling so hard
There is nothing better than the country life I would not give up my life for any amount of money
I loved this. I'm sick and tired of people using calf tables and atvs to work cattle. We need more farm and ranch raised people to run the world. People with morals values and work ethic.
echo lol
Veri good. I am gaucho off South Brasil
I'm a Nigerian by origin. But I love the Cow-boy culture. And, that's how I intend to educate my kids with the cow-boy culture.
my grandfather always were his hat and i have my horses and i had to train her because we didnt have the money to send her to the trainor and i wear my hat too but not everyone gets it over here because im from texas so here they just look at u like ur crazy

Where is that located
Yes it is I grew up here
i know this kind of sounds stupid, but do you have to come from a ranching family to be a cowboy? I have a few horses, and i can rope a dummy, but my family mostly farms sheep- Does that mean i can't be a cowboy?
Stuart Weber Not at all. You're decisions are what determine your life. Its your own story and *nobody* has the right to determine what you can or can't be. :)
