- Extreme Mustang Makeover 100 day journey.
This is a video documenting my progress during the 2020 Fort Worth, Texas - Extreme Mustang Makeover with my Mustang, "Deo Volente" (aka Will). We finished 3rd overall.

I just need to know your training costs 😂. I have a mare that would make a nice one with the right training shes been abusived previously and is just a nervous wreck. She rides but not the best. Shes been chiropracted, teeth floated, and leg xrays because she had some rough scars. I cant get her to set her head no matter what I do, unless you ask her to back up she throws it straight up. Im not sure what to do shes in a snaffle and I've trained multiple before.
the palomino you ponied him w/ was incredible. just so calm, collected and patient what an amazing horse.
I am so so sorry about your mom. I lost my mom to ovarian cancer in February. The pain of how much I miss her is really hard to put into words.
I followed yours and Will's journey last year, and I was excited to see this video posted. You did SUCH a nice job with him.
Guys, what she didn't mention is how high she placed in this competition, and how stiff that competition was. She got 3rd place only behind 2 incredibly well known and established industry professionals--Bobby Kerr and Dan James. Out of 50 people, many of whom are quite skilled and put forth good performances with their mustangs. That's incredibly impressive.
Julia, thank you. It is very hard to put into words. Finishing this video took forever simply because I wasn't ready to make the introduction until recently.
I appreciate your support, and I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom. 💙 It's really tough.
Jacqueline, I remember watching your ride with Deo Volente using the garrocha pole, and I was so proud of you and my heart just swelled with joy. Tears are pouring down my face as I type. I am so sorry about your mum....such a huge loss. I remember the "first" time I watched one of your videos, the one in which you shared your faith and told us about your mum. I kept watching you because you are an awesome horsewoman, but more than that, I loved the light of Jesus that shines through you. I am so grateful that the Lord is close to the broken hearted and to those who mourn and He does give us a peace that the world cannot give. I know I will have to wait till heaven to meet you (I live in Europe) but you are my sister in Christ and I want to thank you for putting your heart on your sleeve and sharing your life with us. God Bless
Awesome! Keep going. God just brought me through a trial with breast cancer. He is absolutely faithful.
I come back to this video regularly for inspiration and always end up in tears. Just so unbelievably impressive and amazing.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Will has touched many hearts. He is so special.
Just realized in my haste to get this video finished, I left a typo in there. 😑😅😬 (don't look for it.)
Wow. What an inspiring story. Your training skills are incredible. Sending you lots of 🥰🥰🥰
I can't tell you how much I love this video❤
Your mother sure instilled great values in you! LOVE is the answer. God bless you and your family. And you are a phenomenal horse trainer.
Thank you!
oh lord tears! amazing work! I literally teared up at that flying change and then of course at the end! Rehoming is so hard but so good.
What a wonderful and moving story. Your talents are remarkable. But as hard as it was to let him go you can be proud that he is now the best boy that he can be.
Honey, Your story is heartbreaking and at the same time inspiring. I’m so sorry about your mom. We lost our sweet granddaughter right before she turned 7 months old. While she’s in heaven along with your mom, they’re waiting for us to arrive, when the time for us has come. I love knowing that they’re there waiting to show us around. We don’t always know why things happen the way they do but God never makes mistakes. Picking Will and standing by him through the uncertainty shows your determination. I commented before but I watched this again and decided to comment again. Love helped Will grow and helped you heal. You sound like a fine person and I love the methods you use to gain trust from a horse that doesn’t understand humans. I trained horses for years myself before I had a serious neck and back issue. I’m 70 now but you take me back in time in the very best way. God bless you for giving a mustang an opportunity to live in a home where he’s loved so much. Great job!
Janet, thank you for your comment and for sharing your story. I'm so incredibly sorry for the loss of your granddaughter. You are so right though, it's wonderful to know that they are there, waiting for us...and how much happier they must be right now. But it doesn't make the pain of the loss any less. My heart hurts for you. Hugs xx
Thank you for what you do. You are an inspiration.
Thanks for sharing this! You did such an amazing job with him! He’s turned out to be such a great horse with all that personality.
Thank you for sharing the journey. Amazing work and effort. I really enjoyed the video. Wish you all the best, keep on the tremendous work!
Beautiful boy, bless him.
Great job.❤💪❤
From gruffy and scared to death to sweet, cooperative and gorgeous. I loved watching the transformation. Wonderful!!!
Thank you!
What a great, inspiring video. I won't lie, my eyes were "sweating" a little at the end. Awesome job!
Love that name so much. And I will be praying for you and your family
Outstanding, well done!
Congratulations!! Great job.
Love Will, love you. Thank you for persevering
Thanks, Jean!
Beautiful story . Thank You !
My mom also passed away from breast cancer. It leaves a horrible hole in your life, but God sometimes brings just the right thing to let you know you have a purpose still and a hope. Thanks for giving Will hope as well.
Melinda, so sorry for your loss. But you are right, we still have hope and a purpose! Thank you for watching.
i just loved watching this. from wild to wonderful. what a team.
You did a great job!
😊
I do like this video very mucho, congratulations
You have done an excellent job with sweet Will.
Outstanding partnership..., one day and one step at a time. ❤️
Thank you!
Wow. Just Wow! I’m training my first mustang now for a 90 day riding challenge. You are my inspiration! ♥️ thank you!
How did it go?
@@gessikaguerra1351 going great! Had a accident that set me back 3-4 weeks but so far I have about 40 rides on her!
Great job with this horse!
Amazing!! God bless you!
Wow, your so talented! It’s so nice to watch you train and perform.
Thank you! I appreciate that.
. So much trust. You make it look easy.
your lead changes and departures are so pretty :)
Seriously impressive.
that palomino has the patience of a saint
just wonderful...
So proud of you all
What a pretty trot!!
This horse is absolutelyyyyyy stunning I’m dying to hold his face
So sorry about your Mom. Love your video.
Fabulous! In every way. Thank you.
Thank you for watching!
From the second you pet his neck, I knew this would be an amazing partnership between you and Will. Congrats on your 3rd place!!!
Thank you, Sarah.
You are an amazing young person great job
Bawling now... love this. 💘
Very beautiful!
The serotonin I had from that first lead change
Now why did you go and make me cry? Great job and kudos... I get way too attached
Gotta love the name!!!@
A beautiful journey! You have amazing skills to get him so far in only 90 days. I’ve been riding my pony for 5 months and she’s not half that far along. Maybe I’ll get farther faster if I watch and follow all your other videos ;)
Thanks for the comment! You have will get faster the more you do it. I appreciate you watching out videos!
AMAZING 💕
I think you’re right he’s amazing
Great job!! Where did you get the rope/reins for the rope halter and the bosalita?
He's gorgeous
So cool my horse is part mustang she is in my last video great job
beautiful,
Inspirational work and wonderful life lessons. I'd be interested to read people's thoughts on the topic of hackamore rigs. Maybe I'm mistaken, but it looks to me like the trainer here is using a mechanical hackamore. As horse partners, is it realistic for us bypass the bit altogether and start an animal on a cross-under rig with the ultimate goal for horse and rider to work with the traditional bosal? Is it realistic to expect a horse already started and/or matured on a bit rig can be transitioned to a bosal rig? Are spurs unavoidable as a practical matter for training?
Thank you
I think I mentioned this before, but it was Deo Volente's finals run that made me want to check you guys out. I looked up your channel right after that video. You did a fantastic job!
Lisa, thank you so much for looking us up and watching this video. I appreciate your compliments!
And yes, I believe he was definitely an underdog. I had never seen behavior quite to his extreme though, so it was very rewarding to be able to make a friend out of this horse. Will was a special one and had so much to offer. And I have no doubts that you're 100% capable of becoming the person you strive to be. ❤️
Showww ! Parabéns
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Can I please ask, what was wrong with Will's confirmation? I lost my Dad too to the same condition. The pain is beyond words. Sending you love from London UK xxx and a HUGE thank you for rescuing these beautiful horses.
when they were ponying that is a GOOD Horse she dident even care
I'm so sorry about your mother
I know that she's really proud of you
Will is an amazing little horse with an amazing trainer
I really enjoyed this video so sorry about you mom
I love hipadrome stand at the end
Thank you! That took a serious amount of nerve for me to get it done on this particular horse. I know I didn't get the technical details of it quite right, but it ended up working out okay for us.
🤩🤩❤
Made me cry.
Do you plan on doing anymore mustang makeovers miss you guys
I think you’re amazing
suuperrrr jirka cech republik
How the heck are you so close to him on day 1?!!!!!!! That’s crazy impressive!!!!
OK, wait...you show "Day 1" but you already have the rope halter on. How did you get close enough to put that on?
He has a beautiful head set for a " working horse" ( I don't like the super low head's, just preference)
Each horse also has their preference. Some prefer to be low, some prefer to be higher.
Gotta agree! I enjoy watching reining competitions except for this one thing. Many or most of those competitors carry their head more like a tracking hound than a horse except for the speed portions. Their performance is spectacular overall, but I've never been able to warm up to that part of it. It just seems so odd. On the other end of the spectrum... I rode a neighbor's Foxtrotter and that high bobbing head was exhausting to look at from the saddle. That just doesn't work for me. But Will was a pleasure to watch. Like a ranch horse, he put his head wherever it needed to be in the moment. When it looks natural, it's just more relaxing and fun to watch, but also exhilarating every moment I'd remind my self this is a mustang with 100 days. Wow!
🙏🏽🙏🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I can’t stop watching your videos
I have probably watched these mustang makeover videos over 20 times
You really inspire me!!
I hope to do a mustang makeover myself
Where do you get your hackamore bridles from?? Hope all is well!! ❤️🐴🤠
Thanks! So glad you enjoy the videos! Are you talking about the loping hackamore I used while starting him, or the setup I used later in his training?
@@zacharias.horsemanship
Hey!!
Thanks so much for replying!!
It made my day seeing a reply from you
Both 🤠
@@zacharias.horsemanship sorry if that last part of the reply was confusing I meant both hackamore bridles
Thanks!! ❤️
@@zacharias.horsemanship also sorry about all the reply’s, I love talking to you
When you first start a Mustang does it matter what bit you use?? 🐴🤠
Absolutely! Dennis Mooreland has some great stuff. I bought the bosalito, romals, mecate etc. at different tack stores across Texas.
one thing i did just like you once i got my kids trained i gave them away
What is the white writing on him?
It's a freeze brand from Bureau of Land Management that gives identifying information about him.
There is a gold star next to your name in God's notebook...
😭😭😭
The fact that a wildcaught mustang can stand totally still for a saddle in under ten days after barely being handled its entire life is absolute proof that there is no excuse for farm-bred ranch horses bucking and bolting and losing their minds the first time they're saddled and I will die on that hill. This is what real horsemanship is.
Wow I bought that horse I didnt even realize! I named him roger
No, you didn't. Lying on the internet isn't cool. If you had watched to the end of the video, you'd see that he's owned by a woman named Carol and his name is still "Will".
i will give you lthumbs when you get the blm to do what i say
and also not many horses go to a home that can train like you most go to some stu[id peolple that dont know crap and the horse lives a terrible life;
Really hate it when people stand on their horses.
Awesome.
Awesome,
Can i just say you have such a nice sit trot 🙂 (me inside:🥲 jealous af)
