All the stress relief cues at the end...licking, chewing, almost a full yawn, and then a poop! This awesome little guy needed you so much!
âWhere do you put a quaterâ đ
đ glad someone noticed that one
What a great little horse! Once he and the rider are communicating with better understanding between them, heâs going to be a very good fit for her. Thanks for some good tips, this was another fun and interesting video.
I totally agree!
That was my feeling, what a nice temperament, he never once balked or argued with anything even when he was nervous, and took to the calming down pretty fast, he was comfortable with the calm. Maybe it was partly the lack of direction that made him anxious to start with, like what to do when no one is telling him what to, plus there's probably a lot of anxiety in the air at a competition, animals can smell all that hormone change. He probably figured if everyone is all nervous, there must be a good reason for that and of course horses don't understand most human reasons, he could have thought there was real danger there. The choice to run fast seems like an obvious one for a horse if there is anxiety/danger in the air and no one told him different. THen the woman probably was getting a bit nervous and frustrated every time he did that which he may have misinterpreted to also mean there was danger yet again. Pretty soon it's like the minute you get ready to go along that path he's thinking uh oh, here we are are about to do that dangerous thing again, I better get ready to run really fast so we can survive safely, that worked really well all those other times after all. His very sensitivity and desire to please may have fueled that cycle. Plus getting being told what to do itself seemed to calm him.
I love that when they're done and chatting that little horse was so happy and relaxed! Those big yawns and those baby chomps say, "Thanks, boss!" I love it.
That's a million-dollar horse right there and an owner who deserves him. The animal is honest and trying to do what he thinks is right. The owner recognized that and went looking for some mentorship to solve the miscommunication. This is so dang heartwarming. I wish all horse and rider pairs had this sort of kindness to each other.
I was initially going to say that a gaited horse for mounted archery is cheating, but I feel the heart of the sport is the connection between horse and rider and that's what the owner is here to accomplish. Best wishes and hope the two of them show the world how horseback archery ought to be done.
"He stalled out. Where do you put the quarter?" đ Love seeing you work with a Rocky! Great video đđ
Amazing how nicely he came around. Nice horse. Great video Ryan.
Thanks đ
Nice work RyanâŠand what a great little horseâŠhe seems like quite a sweetheart. Love his liver chestnut colour with flaxen mane and tail too. In all my years around horses Iâve never known anyone to do mounted archeryâŠit looks like a lot of fun! đâ€ïž
What a nice horse! Love his coloring and he seems like a sweetheart. This was an interesting video.
That was awesome to watch. I've learnt so much from watching your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gift.
Thanks for watching!
What a lovely horse, another great video by Ryan and I love how invested the lady is to get this fixed, she totally got what Ryan was teaching and loved that she was able to relay that back to him and have a clear plan for her progress. Great horse, great owner, win win. đâ€ïžđ©đ°
Awesome job Ryan....thank you. đ
Thank you
We have a Rocky Mountain Horse that looks just like him. In the summer the dapples really show! I enjoyed watching you work with him and how eager he was to respond. Great job Ryan!
This video is EXACTLY what I need for restarting my high headed energetic horse lol. Thank you for sharing this!
what a nice horse !
Itâs no wonder these horses are so calm around you, watching you with these videoâs is calming me as well!
This is great..I practice mounted archery as well and durinh heavy winters I work in a small circle with the target in the middle..I use my mule mostly and he doesnt like to speed up anyway but using a safe circle rather than a track gave me an opportunity to really time things . My horse is fast but the circle contains the brain. Then when on a straight path they dont focus on the finish line but more so on the shots the rider is making. My mule knows when I am our of arrows and he stops to let me collect..haa. probably his favorite part.
Nice, smart horse! You did great with him, Ryan.
I have the same issue with a Paso that I adopted.
Just caught the intro and already am awestruck by this horseâs ownerâs self awareness and clarity. All Iâve caught of Ryanâs input at the time of this comment is the intro interview, but I reckon this lady did an excellent job of not making a bad situation worse once she realized the pickle she and her horse were in. Years ago when I was training pasture pets to work seasonally as harness horses, it was a joy whenever an owner like this came in with a rested horse. Fresh start.
10:04 and on takeaways are outstanding
This horse is so pretty! Good job Ryan!
That horses is pint size. I love him!
"Where do you put a quarter?" Haha
I have this exact same problem with my archery horse, but the bad thing is that I donât have access to a track and the horse is smart enough to know the difference between arena and the track. Wish you would do some clinics in Michigan
Can you set up a track with moveable posts, to allow you to practice. đ
Mounted archery! Thatâs new to me. Looks cool! Neat little horse too.
Right?!
Oh man. Terrific. Your patreon is the best 10 bucks I spend each month! Awesome teacher of humans & trainer of horses.
Thank you đ
Nice horse....smart! Very nice racking! Or was I seeing things? This horse looked so nice moving under saddle.
This is the first gaited horse I've seen on the channel
đ€ might be
Thank you for making these videos...
I would be so much worse off without you, seriously!
Yes!!! Thanks for another video!
Thank you Ryan. So, So many nuggets of information.
I love the Rocky Mountain horses. They are fun to ride if you like there reactive nature.
In my opinion that horse was bought for itâs beauty, but the owner did not read up on the bread.
Gaited horse are ridden with tight high reins while gaiting. I trained the horse that I am riding to also go on a loose rein, but that will go only that far. Rocky Mountain horses are not rocking horses and therefore not for everyone.
âHaha where do you put the quarterâ†nice work âŁïž
âWhere do you put a quarter?â DYING đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ
Me too!!!!!
Adorable rocky! Thanks Ryan great lesson!
Another great video!
Mounted archery for me is the peak of horsemanship. To be able to do that is incredible. Ryan, would be amazing for you to take a horse from green to fully mounted archery trained. I would love to watch that journey
Imagine in the Central Asian steppe where they trained tens or hundreds of thousands of horses and riders to make mounted archery work IN CONCERT as a large unit in hunting and warfare. Hardly anyone ever defeated the Mongols in combat. Imagine what I took to breed the horses, train them, train archers, train mounted archers, train groups, feed and support them on campaigns of thousands of miles, and engage them in combat. Just the logistics of it boggles my mind. Today we have these small clubs who demonstrate this astonishing skill, but groups like the Mongols or Comanches could put 3-5 arrows in the air (at once) with accuracy and shield themselves from arrows by hiding behind the horse at full speed. See research by Lars Andersen of Denmark who responded to skepticism about those reports to show how at least the archery part could be demonstrated. But Lars didnât do it from a horse! HumansâŠ
@@tommyrq180 Bro amazing point. Tbh their lives were not consumed by social media, Netflix and binging on food and distractions. So they had the time!
@@UKPRESCRIPTIONGLASSESREVIEWS Thanks. Almost everyone in the military history world talks about horse archer combat. But I am fascinated by how they bred, raised, trained, and reconstituted THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of horses over campaigns stretching from China to Europe. The Comanches got horses from the Spaniards and in time bred horses to be specific tools for hunting and warfare. You had to feed them and water them because they were your weapon system. You had to grow up with this as part of society and culture. Thatâs also why steppe cultures tended to steal horses as part of their warfare-it deprived enemies and built up your power. Horses were like gold. But you had to be really good at the entire enterprise from breeding to feeding and training, often in places where water and feed were sparse.
@@tommyrq180 I agree on thr scale they did it...absolutely astonishing. However on an individual basis, clearly it's not a miracle. We can all do it if we learn. If you consider these guys didn't go school and university. Their education was horses, war and agriculture with some craftsmanship. If you and me spent all our education in primary school, high school college and uni on horseback, we would be pretty good too! We can do it God willing.
@@UKPRESCRIPTIONGLASSESREVIEWS I think youâre right, but all of that would be easier and the learning much more nuanced and deeper if it were part of how you lived your life from waking to sleep! Weâd have mentors and teachers and lessons to learn from. Doing it today would be a challenge, but we (in my view) couldnât get very good at it comparatively. Just my guess.
He is so much like the Paso Fino mare Musica that I am riding. I'll introduce you to her on Patreon as part of my journey with you. This is what we need. Thank you.
Gaited horse video, how did I miss this one!
This little horse is just adorable. He just wants to do what his rider wants... but goes a lil' too far beyond the point. đI sooo miss my childhood days when I had horses and was in 4-H. My dream is to have a ranch home with acreage to have horses once again. Love your content Ryan! Keep up the great work. :)
I wonder if that is a common training thing with all gaited horses? My ex got a 2nd Tennessee Walker gelding from Tennessee and got me to ride him with him. We were gaiting along a roadway and he started going a bit too fast so I picked up on the reins and he set his head and just starting FLYING! There was a ditch on one side, cars on the road and a stop sign up ahead. I thought we were going to die! But I managed to veer him into the ditch and then I led him home. I had never encountered a horse before where pressure on the reins meant GO!
Yes
@@C-Rocks yes, I am currently riding a gaited Rocky Mountain horse. High reins = strong gait
I have had that experience. Turns out the bridle was pinching the corners of the pony's mouth.
It takes additional training and lots of time to develop relaxation in those horses but it can be done. I had a dressage trainer work with me add additional cues to my TWH and now he's a delight
Great to see a great horseman training a mounted archery horse!
Beautiful!!!! I learn so much from you! đ
Omg! Would love to have this horse.... my dream horse đ„°
Same! Love his smooth gait and canter!!
HOW FUN!
Ryan, build a track and Sox and I will totally come play :p
Amazing.
Ryan here...best trainer EVER...đ
Ok- maybe ist only me, but i don't really see a problem here- its a cute horse btw.
Great video, very pretty horse! Beautiful mane and tail!!
Interesting. Thanks for sharing
You bet
Another way to slow that horse a bit, would be to collect him up into his natural gait. That breed are born with a four beat lateral gait, which he was doing briefly on his own. And when heâs in gait, heâs very smooth. Wouldnât that be a bonus when youâre trying to shoot off his back?
Are you aware they shoot with reins on the horses neck?
@@ryanrosehorsemanship and also that only a canter or gallop is allowed in this sport haha. you score zero points for arrows hit from other gaits ( in the canter level not in the starting levels of walk and trot of course)
That is a great strategy with a saddle horse, to make them turn sharply to get them to slow down, and most of the gaited horse riders I've known use it. That said, you need to stop letting him crop hop, or you'll ruin his gait.
So cooperative and wanting to please. Perhaps he sped up because his rider was anxious during the archery session
Looks exactly like my Lily color wise
Our lane we compete on is too narrow to turn around in, I'd love to see what you think of working on the lane like ours.
You wouldnât be training and practicing in a competition lane. All the training you do should work for any situation. đ
I really enjoy your videos Ryan, what a great little horse. What kind of saddle is that, it looks so comfy?
Looked like an Aussie stock saddle. Lots of mounted archers like it because it really âlocksâ you into the saddle!
@@CharReed Thanks for replying, it is similar, yes. I'm an Aussie, our saddles have two large knee pads in front, they are very comfy. I thought it might be a Spanish saddle.
I wish I could get you to look at my 13 yo son's horse. She wants to jump on the road in front of a car sometimes when the boys are trail riding. She is good otherwise, but she really wants to get up on the asphalt everytime she gets near it.
What a great video , Ryan. You always seem to have a good way of dealing with problem horses ,or should I say horses with some issues .
I am curious as to who was your mentor ?
Plus i think this little smartie good tempered horse helped make Ryan look good in this particular case by being a quick study. ;-P
This horse seems like a cool dude! How did you like riding the gaiTed horse?
Random aside... they should consider double fencing/ adding shrubbery/ guardrail/ large rock along their fence lines. Those cars were giving me anxiety with how fast they were going, so close to the fence. I've heard of nearly a dozen horse deaths from vehicles hitting them while in a field. All it takes is an inattentive driver, accident, bad weather, or a swerve to avoid wildlife to wind up with a dead or severely injured horse/ person!
PSA aside, that little guy is super cute!
Agreed, I always cringe a little when I see people riding horses near roads with fast cars. So many crappy drivers these days. They speed like there's no tomorrow, on top of the fact that many text while driving!! I also fear that a very spooked horse may bolt and jump the fence onto a road. It's very risky. They could at least create a buffer with double fencing like you mentioned.
Bothered me too. I'd add some dense evergreens for noise reduction/screening, too.
Liliys a Fox trotter
He pooped twice (and perhaps some shit landed on the edit room floor) and especially the last one (while talking to the owner) was clearly soft. He went through some shit, may the record show!
Welcome to the world of gaited horses. They are all trained by their mouths and are consistently anxious because of how much the "trainers" push them for speed. I used to work with gaited horses, and I spent most of my time them to slow down and get the riders out of their mouths. Good breeds that are constantly ruined by crap trainers who think gaited horses need big bits and hard hands.
When I was competing or volunteering in NATRC (competitive trail riding) there were LOTS of gaited horses but they were expected to just go down the trail, not do the extremely fast gaits.
Most of them were very quiet as they soon realized after about 10 rides that they would be "working" over 30-60 miles in 2 days. The more experienced ones learned to rest at rest stops instead of looking around and getting anxious. I was riding a grade Arabian when I first started and then switched to Connemara Ponies as NATRC allows all equines. But those gaited horses sure made it look easy going down the trail...
Does he really need that bit? Not being mean I would like to know why use that bit. And what a cute horse. Beautiful
In mounted archery you ride with little to no conatct, so it's important that light, one-Handed signals still come through.
@@badlander2000 thanks
What kind of saddle is that? Looks like a combination of an English trail saddle and an Aussie... Or would it be classified as an Aussie? How did you like it?
Why not go bridleless? If the bit and reins ramp him up - get rid of them.
Maybe
How would you get the horse from the trailer/wherever else to the start of the run with lots of other contestants around?
You keep talking about him blowing out while you're riding, is that a good thing? What does it mean?
They are releasing a deep breath that you can hear. It's similar to you releasing a deep breath after holding it when you're tense.
Just run barrels đ Problem solved
(jk)
Hmm..wonder what that would look like?....rackin' round tha barrel..haha!đ
@@melanies.6030 We attend a fun show with gaited & wtc horses. Some of the spotted saddle horses & twh do very well (winning), but not while racking or pacing around barrels or poles. They have to canter/ gallop. Some do rack and pace in the classes, but it's slower, sadly đ€·
Personally - I think speed racking is where it's at đ
How come we never get to see the "finished product", aka HER riding the horse???
She had knee replacement and isnât riding currently.
