- Here is our much anticipated video on pulling a reata. We finally got some warm weather and found a patch of grass so we were able to do it. Pat also demonstrates the difference between a pulled reata and one that has not been pulled and how to tell when you've pulled your reata enough. Thank you very much for watching!

I got a tad nervous when you wrapped the reins around your arm lol..... but another great video and once again l learnt some real life, time proven methods and thank you
so much for sharing
El tyyye
Thank you for sharing these old traditions and keeping them alive for the future!
I never knew all the "why's" about pulling a reata. Thanks for another
very informative video.
Had to laugh...Ol' Snakes is still keeping an eye out for'em! Thanks, guys, you are always a great part of my day.
I liked the video very much. It's very enlightening as a roper I have never used a riata before and I would venture into using this type of rope more. I do use my horse for stretching my nylon ropes. Like your ingenuity. Thank you.
Thanks so much. Again y'al gave the missings details to my very basic understanding. Thanks, Prof!
Thank you for these videos! Especially all the work you have to put into them for us to enjoy. I use to own a horse 40+ yrs ago, and now just enjoy channels like yours. Your last tip about using a horse to pull the Reata made me laugh out loud...Thanks again!
Get another horse.
Or at least, get on one again 🙃
I enjoyed the video Pat thanks for sharing
Thank you I had no idea how you would treat a Reate. Wonderful information that won't be lost.
Very interesting. I learned a ton. Thanks, Pat.
Thank you. I enjoyed the video as always.
Great and helpful information. Thanks you!
Thanks for sharing and take care.
I really like watching ole Snakes in the grass work!
Pat I sure enjoy your videos Thanks
Thank you for the video Pat. I just finished pulling my reata today. I don't have any kidney fat, so I ordered some rawhide cream. I'm not sure if it's as good as kidney fat, but it smells about the same. My 3 year old colt got some calf pulling lessons today as well. Whether he knows it or not.
A big thank you from Kentucky.
Thanks for sharing
What a good idea on how to break in the leather riata. I've seen horse hair riatas but don't know anything about either kind, except for this video. Thanks.
It’s not leather. It’s rawhide.
Thank you
Es un gran video
Hahahahaha... I was so hopped up to try just a a beginner lesson with my ol nag Rowdy.... I didn’t come close....but keep your lessons coming Pat....adios
Where do u get a Reata at how much for one and if you possiblyhave a older one that you don't use anymore that way I can see what it like to use one befor I spend the money on one I'm willing to pay you for it thanks so much love the work that u do on the show
Thank you I have a reata that has lost a lot of its spring it’s a bit like a wet rag like my other rope you saw lol can it get life back in it if I re pull it it’s now ten years old ps pls keep making videos your a legend
Unfortunately there’s nothing that can be done for a Reata that is too soft. Where did you get it?
,,,I'm gonna get a hat like Pat.
Man, wrapping that rein around his arm got me worried lol
I was just gifted a new Reata from my Father, thank you for making this video! You mentioned using kidney fat to condition ... is there any alternative? I.E. Leather conditioner, tallow, saddle butter, etc
Rawhide Cream is available online.
One more thing, never use a product that is made for leather. Rawhide is completely different.
Pat ,
Are the drilled holes in your pulling wood graduated or all the same size ?
I just got me first reata Unlike anything I've ever felt before.
Need to do some la reata research and vaquero terminology sir!!
I'm not a great roper, but when we used to break in a nylon rope we stretched it between posts. I started using weighted polys a few years ago never broke them in other than just using them. I have a waxed cotton one now, wow, stiff and fast, have stretched(but maybe not enough) hasn't seemed to break in. What do you recommend for polys, cottons, or nylons? Would love to have a reata one day, but want to be a better roper first. Thanks, Bilby, Alberta. PS, would like to know if you ever plan on doing a clinic in Alberta.
Pat uses a 5/16 nylon soft lay 60 footer. We don’t have mud or snow. If we lived in Alberta, he would probably use a poly. We don’t have any plans to travel to Canada in the near future. There have been a few people up there who have shown interest so I wouldn’t rule it out when the world goes back to normal.
@@PatnDebPuckett , Thank you! Love the videos!
Flournoy, Tehama Co.- I have had my Riata as a wall hanger for over thirty years. Went to butcher to get kidney fat , as weather permitted stretched it to grease it. I then cut an oak log . My problem was when I started pulling I could pull through four holes it would not pull. To
Be careful. A reata that has been hanging on your wall for that long might be rotten inside.
I didn't realize that you sold the reatas after a certain duration of use. How can you bear to part with such a useful work of art?
No man needs FOUR reatas!
@@PatnDebPuckett I am afraid to ask............what are the prices? ..............I know.........'If you have to ask.....................'
When you make the holes in the oakwood, do you smooth out the edges before you start pulling? Or does the gaps between the holes come as a result of pulling a lot of reatas?
We do not smooth out the holes. The reata smooths them out.
Sad news Pat & Deb, Our old vaquero Ray Ordway passed away a couple of days ago.
We heard yesterday. May he rest in green pastures...
Ok, i ain't no cowboy but have started saddle colts and logged a team many years. Me and ropes ain't never come to an understanding. I have a reata a friend sent me from Texas. After watching this I'm gonna stretch it. It has the pineapple knot on the end so I reckon I'll have to drill the holes big enough for that? Then learn how to swing it and slide it. Any insights I'd love to hear. Thanks for the video!
No, no, and no.The “pineapple knot” is for the hondo. It is not pulled through the holes. The holes are only slightly larger than the diameter of the reata. You pull the hondo end of the rope all the way to the tail and then pull the tail end all the way to the hondo being careful to stop as soon as the hondo reaches the piece of wood. Repeat, repeat, repeat until the reata is right.
Also, if you’ve had your reata hanging on a wall or otherwise not stored properly, it will likely be rotted at the core so you might break it by pulling it. If you don’t intend to use it, just string it out between two posts out of reach of any dogs and rub a piece of beef liver over the whole length. Let it dry. Coil it up. And hang it back up.
@@PatnDebPuckett oh yea, I also made the Hondo with a knot on that end,
Id like to see the making of a green hide rope . From.start to finish . Is it plated ? Or twisted ?
We don’t make them. We buy them and prepare them for roping. These are braided. The twisted ones are too hard on cattle.
Hi, Pat and Deb. Quick question real quick. Do the hole sizes and spacing matter? If so, do you mind telling me the measurements? Thanks!
3/8 holes, 2 inches apart.
Thanks for the info. Do you do this process with a reata no matter how the hide was processed? Just wondering if you would do this with both a limed hide reata and a scraped hide reata. Thanks again.
En cuanto sale una soga de esas
What do you get for your reatas
Pat, what do you think about cotton ropes?
They’re hard to break in and they get really hot when you slide rope. But they last forever...
I have a braided rawhide headstall that's been just sitting around and is really stiff. It's never even been on a horse before. It's just been hanging in my kitchen. Any advice on how I can get it softened up and usable?
Kidney fat or Rawhide cream and hanging it in the sun.
@@PatnDebPuckett Great, thanks for the reply.
I just finished cutting some rawhide into 1/4” strips. Do you like to braid it wet or dry? Or semi wet, I mean not soaked over night?
Pat doesn't braid reatas. We buy them in Sonora Mexico.
Ok thank you. I’ll try it both ways. I’ll soak the rawhide for one and not for the other. Thanks again. @@PatnDebPuckett
Good afternoon I am from Texas originally and had a always wanted a Riata can you let me know the price for 86 footer
$600
There's a video on here somewhere that goes through the steps of building a reata. The narrator says he likes elk hide better than cow hide because it's lighter and stronger. Any comments on that or any other hide they can be built from?
We don’t know anything about that subject. We’ve only used reatas made of cowhide.
These cowboys in Louisiana would think we’ve lost our mines with the reata
Does this work woth cotton cowboy ropes?
No you don’t have to, that would probably just damage it
Where do you get your reatas from I would like to order on like your 85 ft but a thick one
The thick 85 footers come from further south in Mexico than we go. They work down there because it’s a jungle with high humidity. They just don’t work for us. Sorry.
Do you guys have any reata's for sale???
Yes we do. We have a 60 footer for $500 and an 80 footer for $700...you can email me if interested: debpuckett@gmail.com.
What's the cost of a reata ?
60 footers are $500. We have one 80+ footer that is $700.
Does the cow hair effect the Loop?
can we here pats take on center fire saddles i dont ride one i just want to here his take
A centerfire saddle originated when horses were narrower and had higher withers. If you ride one now, you’ll spend a good portion of your day resetting your saddle. We’ve evolved and our horses have evolved so they just don’t work for me.
@@PatnDebPuckett thanks Pat and Deb I was thinking about buying one and my dad and grandpa hadn't owned one so I figured I would ask once again thanks you
How much does a reatta cost?
$500 for a 60 footer
@@PatnDebPuckett thank you!!
Este wey se jalo la reata y youtube no lo cancelo, que doble standard
B.S.!!
What part?
You have said it before. Why do you sell a perfectly broke in saddle?
Laughed at your flat tires
Because he can always break in another one! 😂
You need to quit doing stuff like this because you are having to much fun.
so wrapping the reins around your arm is a good idea???? and don't say, but-but -butt, this horse is broke! wow, until just now, I thought you might know what you where doin....SMDH
I know that these days people think it’s acceptable to be rude in comments on social media. But it’s just not ok. Don’t type something that you wouldn’t say face to face. If you have a question, state it respectfully. If you want to contact Pat directly, visit our website www.thedisciplinedride.com .
Steve Carvalho you are a prick. Yeah we've all wrapped reins around our arm, held in our teeth, etc. Your pretty mouthy on your keyboard. You spend enough time around a horse and you'll learn what you can and can't do with him.
@@jbarjj2715 👍 agreed. I do a lot with my horse that I would never do with my husband's. We know our limits and by the way. Its his arm not yours Steve Carvalho
