- Bruce Sandifer may teach bridle horse skills but Bruce says bringing the old Californio method back forced him to become a better student. The Californio method of balance and timing was created by the Mission vaqueros to train a horse that is totally fluid in any movement while staying in perfect balance on any type of terrain. Bruce is convinced horses are happier and perform better.
Excellent explanation of going through the stages of a full finished horse. Also, great explanation of the process and reason for the steps. Those who do not train this style have no clue except for what they’ve heard or think. Unless you’ve trained your horse in the Californio style, don’t demonize it because you will be called out like Gerry.
One of the most amazing horseman ever..
Love his outlook for vaquero horsemanship and cattle methods. Very efficient and sustainable for everything involved in this lifestyle.
I love watching true bridle horses & good horsemen. It is like watching a beautiful, fluid dance, whether they are working cattle or running a reigning pattern.
I'm a dressage lover but Sandifer---he's just described JP Giacomini's equivalent in lightness dressage practice. Admirable, I love the interview---wonderful!
JP is as different from many people's idea of dressage as Sandifer is from western pleasure. I love both styles of horsemanship. Thank you for sharing this interview!
This type of horsemanship should be taught to everyone believes they are a "cowboy" or "horseman"! He explained very well the spade bit in a short period of time. I've never used a spade bit and I'd definitely love to learn how. Good interview for sure!
A spade bit is a Vaquero tradition that should be left to the dust of time. It is a harsh bit. One tiny miss cue and the horse tosses his head and opens his mouth to try and relieve the pain. Carefully watch most horsemen that are riding with a spade bit, and you will see what I am describing.
@@gerrycoleman7290 here you go with your stupid crap again. You know nothing son. Give it a rest already. Your limited capacity of horsemanship makes you look like a fool. Your laziness is what got you there.
Great interview really enjoyed watching it.
looking good buddy took me a few years to find you on CZcams but looking good!!
Use of Spade bits are a compromise to training and knowing your horse properly in my opinion. Working of of the leg and seat can be much more effective and provide a better connection between the horse and rider. Also spurs are overused at times.
The fluid beauty is even more so when using a rope halter and a lead line converted to reins.

Where was the fluid
beauty of the finished bridle horse? All I saw was the top half of a man talking about the finished bridle horse. 😨
I find fluid beauty in using a rope halter and lead line converted to reins. Which I don't use much. I use mainly body cues.
seriously Gerry! i see you on every damn vaquero video bitching about spades... seriously fuck off! nobody cares bout your pink ropehalter...
Which shows you know nothing about a disciplined ride. Continue being a brush poppper.
@@BlackbirdSpecOps It is too bad you don't know what is possible.
@@gerrycoleman7290 yeah, a closed mind like yours limits you to being limited to the potential of the untrained horse. Keep digging that hole.
Why the need to go to the bit when the horse completely understands the meaning of slight pressure when the hackamore is used?
Why not improve on your horse and yourself?
Colton------not through a pain compliance spade bit.
gerry--- if you don't understand a spade...just shut up..really just shut up..
@@gerrycoleman7290 it is not a pain compliance bit. It is a light pressure/release bit. The horse knows the bit and is not afraid of it. It refines the horses actions.
@@BlackbirdSpecOps All bits are pain compliance if used beyond a certain point.
