@@WorkingHorsesWithJim you Draft Horse competitors and the horse pull Competition Organizers ought to try to get some Corporate Sponsors. the Deere Tractor, Levis Jeans, even the Pick-up truck manufacturers that pull your horse trailers look like potential Corporate Sponsors. good luck.
I sure am glad that I found y'all's channel, My wife and I used to go watch the horses work. That was our relaxation. She's deceased now and I miss this activity among others.
Grandpa, so sorry you lost your wife. She would be happy you found Jim's channel. I loved watching the horse pulls when I lived in Michigan but since moving to Texas they don't seem to have them here. This is fun to watch!
Can we just take a moment to applaud both Ken and Bill. That could have been so much worse, but thanks to those amazing horses, and Jim's wonderful training nobody was hurt. I absolutely love your channel!
thank you for making my dad and I part of the video. We love the horse pull and supporting Jim and his horses. Ken running around at the end like he hadnt even been pulling at all :)
Glad nobody got hurt when the bolt broke. Your boys are such honest pullers to come back after that. Nice to see that they were so tired afterwards that they could barely gallop around the pasture, snorting... 🤪
I love horsepulls ever since my grandpa took me to my first when I was 10 the power the horses have and the snap of the chain when they go I was hooked and now I take my daughter who is 2 and she has the look in her eyes I did
I love your horses so much... So proud of how well they do. You both take such great care of these beauties.. Even when the connectors broke.. the horses were startled, but honestly, handeled themselves well.. They calmed down quickly... Like I said in the beginning.. LOVE them. AND, both of you, too!!!!! xxoo
Ken & Bill are a great team working together, and all Jim & Brenda’s horses are loved and looked after so well. Jim is an excellent horseman, I’ve been watching every video for approx 3 years and I’m so impressed with his knowledge, a lifetime of experience, training, working logging and all their farm work. At this pull event, unfortunately some tackle/equipment failed but Jim was in total control of his horses handled them well. I see Brenda & Jim as good hard working humble people. And I say this in support of them because of some peoples opinions of pull events. I so much enjoy your sharing your farm work, a traditional way of life.
I grew up going to horse pulls at the Erie Co fair. Love when you have them on. I’m sorry you have issues with folks having a problem with them. I don’t think they realize the discipline involved and how well you know your animals and when or if you need to call it enough. It’s a dying sport. When I was young there were many teams competing 20+ now, if they’re even having them there are few participants. I would have loved to have seen them back at the turn of the century or 1800’s. I can picture the old farm days and the county competitions with all the farm related events whether it was domestic or farm related.
Maybe those people who don't appreciate horse pulls should watch the team (Jim included!) pull logs, or hay, or plow a field, break a snow path....They do similar actions and build muscles year round! Much better than standing around being a pasture pony in a lot with no grass. These are working horses!!!
Getting horses ready for a Heavy horse pull not only means building physical strength and endurance but also confidence in their owner, and themselves, your horses exhibit all of these. It was great the way the competitors came to help and was willing to lone parts needed for a repair. Thanks for sharing a nice video
Wow! What power these horses have. Ken and Bill put forth a truly honest effort. Very impressive! Good team handling Jim. Good assisting William. Ken and Bill truly earned their pasture romp this go round. I had never watched a horse pulling competition before. It was educational. The horses know when it's time to quit (reached their limits). - ACD
Oh we sure enjoyed watching the horse pull today. Ken and Bill did so well!!!! Thank you Brenda and Jim for bringing us all along with you, those beautiful horses seemed to enjoy it as much as we did! Brenda, I made your pie the other day, using Granny Smiths that we had at the house. Turned out absolutely delicious with some vanilla ice cream! Great recipe and thank you!!!!
I love the fact that you do horse pulls. It is so fun to watch horse pulls with well trained horses like yours. And the demonstration of horsemanship. Using your horses for all the things you do and then competing is a good example to everyone I think. Keep your videos coming we sure enjoy them.
Ken and Bill were amazing and I loved watching the competition. I was also happy to see that your Amish hand was there to help. I'll bet he really enjoyed being a part of it. As always, Brenda you did an amazing job with the video. Gotta love those beautiful draft horses!
Love your intro Although the horse pulls are not .y favorite type of video to watch. I enjoy seeing you, Brenda, and the horses. For whatever reason, I trust you to have the animals' best interests in mind so keep doing what you do. I'm here to stay
You are such a marvelous horse handler, even in an emergency! The thing I liked most about this horse pull is how you want back after dealing with an that equipment issue. Ken and Bill are in such great condition that they are a pleasure to watch.
This what the horses were bred to do.........pull. I have been watching horse pulls for over 50 years and when the team doesn't want to pull they quit. The pull was terrific and the horses were a joy to watch.
I always enjoy watching the horse pulls as well. The horses enjoy them too. I always go to the horse pulls at the local fall fairs in Ontario when we can. The teamsters always like seeing and chatting with their peers as well. Keep all your videos of the aspects of farm life coming they are all so enjoyable. Michael from Angus Ontario Canada. Wishing everyone all the very best.
I ramember back in the 50s when the driver would lay the whip right on them thank goodness that does not happen any more, when we lived in Vermont my wife would let me go to the horse pulls on fathers day I believe it was North Haverhill, N H we are now living in Florida on the South West coast love you both and be careful I can say that as I am 85 years young.
Wow! This is just an amazing example of a relationship between horseman and horse!!! Incredible job by Jim keeping them both calm and working thru it. Awesome video.
Your intro is very interesting Jim! What do the viewers think they’re watching when you’re pulling trees out of the woods? Abuse to a draft horse would be not allowing them to do what they were created to do which is to pull and work. Some of my most precious memories are standing next to my dad at the Acton Fair in Maine watching the horse and oxen pulls as a little girl. I look forward to your videos keep them coming Jim and Brenda!
@@wilburfinnigan2142pal, it is not cool to stay on here and bash people who like this sport. In case you had not noticed, the horses actually like what they are doing. “DUUUUUUHHH”!
@@marionberry6909 BS I have as much right to be here as anybody else and don't you DARE try to tell me what I can and Cannot do !!! Got it ???? And do not try to tell me what a horse "likes to do.." as I was into horses for over 40 years and I have seen what goes on !!!! You are trying to preach to the choir !!!! Not one of them horses put his harness on and got in the trailer and hauled miles and not one of them hooked to a weighted sled, and decided it was "fun.." to try and pull an over weighted sled !!!
In their other horse pull videos, you will see that Jim has pulled his horses out before the end of the competition because he felt like they’d had enough. Jim takes better care of his horses then a lot of people take care of their children.
Thank you Brenda for video taping the horse pull. Never knew what a horse pull was until I watched one that you did awhile ago. Love watching them now. My heart stopped when I saw Ken pull away and you had a breakdown. Glad Ken was ok and everyone else too. God bless you Jim and Brenda . Love the ending with Bill eating and Ken galloping out at the distance. 🐎🐎❤
Oh, my heart!! 😮 I'm so glad they're ok...that had to be quite a shock to Ken! But, they seemed to recove well enough. I guess it's like getting back on after falling off! Jim, i was afraid to watch horse pulls, but the time you stopped when you thought it was too much weight (in a different video) i wasnt so afraid anymore. The variety on your channel is great! 🙂
I don't understand why people can be against this, these horses are so well looked after! And following Jim and his horses, there's nothing mean or bad, this is what these breeds do, you look at the condition of these horses and its amazing, its a testament to Jim and how much he cares for his horses, they are his family, and the simple fact that Jim usually pulls out that he only thinks about his horses. And all these reasons are why I started following, I'm in the riding area of horses and just love watching Jim and his wife and family and how much love they have for these beautiful horses. Thank you Jim and Brenda for making it possible for me to watch from New Zealand 😊 xx and congratulations on coming 2nd woop woop 🎉🎉🎉🎉
The horses did very well and when the evner snapped they are ok. I really enjoy the diversity of jobs you do with horses. Being a Service Connected Veteran the horses seem to calm me.
It was so sweet seeing the horses back home enjoying the evening. Bill grazing quietly, and then Ken galloping like he’s a young colt down the other pasture! 🧡🐴
Hi, You did awesome job with the boys. Thank you for showing the pull. You can see the horses love doing pulling. They wouldn't get so excited. ❤❤❤🙏👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇲
Great pull. I grew up watching horse pulls with my dad. He grew up working the farm with horses and loved watching them. Brings back good memories. The boys did great.
Draft horses by definition are bred to do heavy hauling, farm work, logging. You can tell by Jim and Brenda’s interaction , care and attention to their stock that the health and safety of every one of their horses is their primary concern. Horse pulls can be part of their working regimen to keep them in shape.
Homestead Horsemanship sent me- I do enjoy horse pulls, mostly because the horses seem to be enjoying themselves. I ❤ draft horses, and I look forward to watching your videos. Subscribed 👍
The power of the horses is amazing! Very good competition. We saw horse pulls live some years ago in North Idaho at a draft horse competition near where we live. Your horses were beautifully brushed and shined for the competition.
That was exciting! I've been attending horse pulls since long before the internet existed. Just love seeing them stamp and snort itching to be connected to the load. Thank you so much Jim & Brenda for taking us along. 😊💛👍🐴
When Ken broke away, it was absolutely amazing that he is so well trained you were able to get the situation under control immediately, it sort of made me feel a little emotional when Ken came back around to his place almost immediately, he's such a good horse. Kudos to all your hard work and training.
Scary moment of equipment failure but so well recovered - all thanks to Jim’s experience and great control of the horses - again their trust in you was so clear to see 👍
I know a LOT of people enjoy tractor pulls. I dont. It's just machinery. But horse pulls! Well-muscled, well trained team of horses doing what they were bred for, what they were trained for, that's my jam. Keep your tractor pulls.
The horse pulls are lovely to watch when done correctly like on your video, the boys did great .Don't worry Jim what others think if you know you are doing it right that's all that counts. Love watching all your videos great job Brenda , and like see all the horses but Baron has won my heart 😊 Thanks for sharing your videos
I haven’t seen a horse pull since I was a kid. I’m 70 now. This just made me smile so broad I can’t describe it. I use to tractor pulls, but my dad was raised Apostolic & grew up with nothing but work horses. His father came from Germany when he was a little boy. Just like the Amish, they grew up in little colonies(groups). They all pitched in to help each other. That was fantastic to watch!!! 😊❤
My first horse pull with you all was when Abby and Trudy were the judges, the entertainment group and Jim was the winning teamsters! Loved it! That ending shot looked like a very happy horse after a day of pulling.
Few things in life, impressed me to Jim., one of the things that does impressed me is your knowledge of horses and your ability to train and handle them. I’ve had horses my whole life and I can sure see your abilities. Thank you so much for your channel.
Jim I admire William your Amish worker you have .He fixes barn boards , runs sawmill , catches hay bales on the wagon and builds load of hay .Now he goes to horse pulls and drops hitch like a pro . Well done William . Cheers Ps I was going to recommend William for a pay raise but then realized , " thats not my call . Well done everyone .
👏👏👏👏Good job Kenny and Bill!! You boys are awesome!!! Loved seeing Kenny running through the field after he came home❤ If anyone thinks horse pulls aren't good for draft horses, I hope they got to see how Ken was showing his stuff at the end. He was running like a race horse through the field at home!!!!!!🏇 My Papaw (he was 96 when he died in 1975) loved horse pulls! He had draft horses and worked them in the timber woods in southwest Virginia. So I feel like watching Jim work his teams cutting timber and taking them to horse pulls is continuing my Papaw's love of draft horses!!!!!!!! I love draft horses so much. They are an amazing breed of horses!!! Jim and Brenda, thank you so much for giving all of us the opportunity to see how great these horses are! Drafts helped build America as they were used long before gas powered machinery came on the scene to deliver supplies and equipment for roadways, railways, to name just a few!!!
Thank you showing a horse pull... I think your boys did good... . It's time for a treat or two and a little rest. God bless!!! You have group of beautiful horses. It looks like they enjoy working for Jim.. Thank you Brenda for all you do to capture all the adventures with horses.. ❤
You did a great job showing the workings of the Draft Pulling Show! Thank you! It's been a long time since i have even seen a live show so i definitely enjoyed your video!
I’m going to have to pay attention to the schedules and try to get to this pull sometime. It seems so well run. I’m not far north - just across the big river.
I remember many years ago, I went to a pull in Canton, NY. A guy came in with a team of Percheron crosses that he had been working in the woods with. He had no driving lines on them! Everything was done by voice! What a joy to see that team work!
Great video for this Labor Day. Totally enjoyed it! Quite a breakdown. Jim was getting up and down off the ground better than a lot of young men do. Looking forward for Wednesday!!!
I appreciate that you gave them a good chance at that last pull. They were straight coming into it. They did awesome. Love a well trained horse that knows not to get spooked because you are there as their protector. Well done.
My goodness the adrenaline was really pumping... me aswell as the horses and team. Beautiful Ken and Bill are worth their waight in gold and what a wonderful ending thankyou ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
That was so much fun to watch! I can’t believe how strong the horses are!!! Way to go!!! Thanks for sharing this event with us. Love your channel. Horses are so so beautiful. 🥰🙋🏻♀️❤️
Looks like these Horse are having a lot of fun competing. They look like their listening for the Sound of Metal hitting the Hook, a sign for GO! Pulling Logs ad Farming are keeping them is great shape. Have a wonderful Day Jim and Brinda
What a magnificent animal. They are so beautiful and they try their hardest. I used to live near an amish community in Iowa and would attend their horse pulls. I so enjoy seeing the power in these animals. Thank you for taking us along. Loved seeing the boys enjoying the pasture.
I so enjoyed watching the video of your horse pulls!!! Rules here in Canada are quite different. Here a pull is 14 ft, you get 2 chances per hook but it’s a continuous pull. (They don’t pull the load back and start over) Also no jerking allowed. Great to see your horses working so well together!!! I just posted a recent pull here on my page today. Wishing you continued success Jim!!!
That made me cry when Brenda patted Kenny..thank you for loving them so much and giving them your soft touch..they know it,,
They really loved those apples...oh how l love these horses with all my heart.
It was sweet! He kept tossing his head like "as shucks mom"
Thank you and Brenda for all your videos. I like your horse pulls because they are very professional and well done!
Glad you like them!

I have loved a good horse pull since I was a kid. The power and excitement gives me a wonderful rush of memories of times past.
glad it brings back good memories
I grew up going to horse pulls at the Erie Co fair. Love when you have them on. I’m sorry you have issues with folks having a problem with them. I don’t think they realize the discipline involved and how well you know your animals and when or if you need to call it enough. It’s a dying sport.

Yes, it is sad to see so few teams at the pulls.
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Would you have an hypothesis to why the sport in declining.
Yes, grew up going to The Fair! Nice new draft barns.....went this year!!!
Maybe those people who don't appreciate horse pulls should watch the team (Jim included!) pull logs, or hay, or plow a field, break a snow path....They do similar actions and build muscles year round!

My first horse pull with you all was when Abby and Trudy were the judges, the entertainment group and Jim was the winning teamsters!
Loved it! That ending shot looked like a very happy horse after a day of pulling.
That was a good video. The power those horses can produce is absolutely amazing.
Few things in life, impressed me to Jim., one of the things that does impressed me is your knowledge of horses and your ability to train and handle them. I’ve had horses my whole life and I can sure see your abilities. Thank you so much for your channel.
Jim I admire William your Amish worker you have .He fixes barn boards , runs sawmill , catches hay bales on the wagon and builds load of hay .Now he goes to horse pulls and drops hitch like a pro . Well done William . Cheers Ps I was going to recommend William for a pay raise but then realized , " thats not my call . Well done everyone .
Those horses are so beautiful! I grew up going to local house pulls and have always admired their beauty.
Oh, it made me cry a bit. Jim and men controlled them so well. Glad no one got hurt. This pretty cool.
Another grear Pull that was some impressive weights. thanks for sharing. ECF
👏👏👏👏Good job Kenny and Bill!! You boys are awesome!!! Loved seeing Kenny running through the field after he came home❤ If anyone thinks horse pulls aren't good for draft horses, I hope they got to see how Ken was showing his stuff at the end. He was running like a race horse through the field at home!!!!!!🏇 My Papaw (he was 96 when he died in 1975) loved horse pulls! He had draft horses and worked them in the timber woods in southwest Virginia. So I feel like watching Jim work his teams cutting timber and taking them to horse pulls is continuing my Papaw's love of draft horses!!!!!!!! I love draft horses so much. They are an amazing breed of horses!!! Jim and Brenda, thank you so much for giving all of us the opportunity to see how great these horses are! Drafts helped build America as they were used long before gas powered machinery came on the scene to deliver supplies and equipment for roadways, railways, to name just a few!!!
Thank you showing a horse pull... I think your boys did good...
. It's time for a treat or two and a little rest. God bless!!! You have group of beautiful horses. It looks like they enjoy working for Jim.. Thank you Brenda for all you do to capture all the adventures with horses.. ❤
You did a great job showing the workings of the Draft Pulling Show! Thank you! It's been a long time since i have even seen a live show so i definitely enjoyed your video!
I’m going to have to pay attention to the schedules and try to get to this pull sometime. It seems so well run. I’m not far north - just across the big river.
I love horse pulls. ❤ Thank you Jim and Brenda. Abbys home is beautyful😊😊😊❤
I love watching horse pulls. Thanks to all for keeping these competitions going. ❤
Great job Ken and Bill proud of you both
Amazing job, Ken and Bill. And to all the other Teams.Good job!!
I remember many years ago, I went to a pull in Canton, NY. A guy came in with a team of Percheron crosses that he had been working in the woods with. He had no driving lines on them! Everything was done by voice! What a joy to see that team work!
Great video for this Labor Day. Totally enjoyed it!
Quite a breakdown. Jim was getting up and down off the ground better than a lot of young men do. Looking forward for Wednesday!!!
Thanks 👍
I appreciate that you gave them a good chance at that last pull. They were straight coming into it. They did awesome. Love a well trained horse that knows not to get spooked because you are there as their protector. Well done.
Ken and Bill did a good job! They tried their heart out for Jim and that's all you ask of them. Great team!!
I love watching the pulls, as well as all the aspects of your horse use!!! Blessings
My goodness the adrenaline was really pumping... me aswell as the horses and team. Beautiful Ken and Bill are worth their waight in gold and what a wonderful ending thankyou ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Sure like watching the horse pulls!!
That was so much fun to watch! I can’t believe how strong the horses are!!! Way to go!!! Thanks for sharing this event with us. Love your channel. Horses are so so beautiful. 🥰🙋🏻♀️❤️
Impressive and fun to watch event! Those horses continually amaze me with their powerhouse strength!👍
Looks like these Horse are having a lot of fun competing. They look like their listening for the Sound of Metal hitting the Hook, a sign for GO! Pulling Logs ad Farming are keeping them is great shape. Have a wonderful Day Jim and Brinda
What a magnificent animal. They are so beautiful and they try their hardest. I used to live near an amish community in Iowa and would attend their horse pulls. I so enjoy seeing the power in these animals. Thank you for taking us along. Loved seeing the boys enjoying the pasture.
I love the pull today, Kin Bill did a great day and you can see they love to pull too.
God bless y'all
They did very good you must be very proud of Bill n Ken big hugs for them
I enjoy watching horse pulls when I get a chance to watch them. That's usually at area county fairs. Good job Ken and Bill. 👍
I love horse pulling Jim
I appreciate every aspect of you working with horse.
I so enjoyed watching the video of your horse pulls!!! Rules here in Canada are quite different. Here a pull is 14 ft, you get 2 chances per hook but it’s a continuous pull. (They don’t pull the load back and start over)
Also no jerking allowed. Great to see your horses working so well together!!!
I just posted a recent pull here on my page today. Wishing you continued success Jim!!!
