- This is Blue's first ride in the Missing Link Snaffle. Pat starts teaching him the one rein stop in the Missing Link Snaffle and the start of backing and side passing. Stay tuned for the rest of Blue's story. For more information, visit our website, www.thedisciplinedride.com .

Hope we get to see Blue in some country. Im right here with my horse, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I bought a missing link - and it's has been a bit of a game-changer for my 13.2hh Arab gelding. He was mentally shut-down, and I couldn't get through to him with a mechanical hack or a simple jointed snaffle. Now, he chews and rattles and his jaw relaxes, and then his movement becomes freer and I get the feeling he really enjoys stepping out and about on the hills.
I just got one for my coming five year old Friesian cross mare, I’m really excited!
Blue reminds me of my Appy gelding with his short attention span. We had our first spring ride yesterday!!! He did so much better in lateral work on the logs after being off for winter. He loves the missing link snaffle and we actually worked some one handed turning only by leg cues. Thanks for all you teach us. Cheers from Tatamagouche.
i am an english rider through and through, ridden it my whole life. but just today i fell into the rabbit hole of learning about spade bits and bridle horses, and it is incredible!! found your channel from researching spade bits and have been watching all of the videos. great stuff. i of course disagree with things here and there, but i've also never worked on a ranch, worked cattle, ridden a cowhorse, etc., so in this field i am completely the student 😂
Thank you!
Missing Link Snaffle has changed the game for us. We own multiple. Changed the game alone by being able to easily one hand a snaffle before switching to a western bit but there are many other perks as well.
Cheers!!
One of y'alls best videos yet!!
Pat, you're the best hand!
Your wisdom on making bits from old hay implements finally sunk in .....
IRON BITS coal forged custom made ....
You Sir are an Inspiration
Great work Pat 👍
I’m waiting for my MLS to come my way. Ordered it a couple weeks ago. Thank you two for everything you do!
Thank you
poor old Blue is a little confused and bewildered. Going to kindergarten, can't wait to see high school!
Thanks!
Looks like he's coming along nicely.
Impart your wisdom .
Thank you ! Live with the horses
Thank you for sharing sir!
Great video thank you
Mr.Pat I appreciate your detailed explanation during your training sessions.
"Its not like I am quite the hand" pat that is where you went wrong
That missing link l, can’t say enough good things, as other guy said, absolutely a games changer!!!!
I agree with you about getting them out side in rough country.
We are front flat land in Iowa. Started taking my daughter's to Wyoming Big Horn mountains.
After 7 days of riding in that rough country made my daughters and our horses into much better riders and trained horses.
Million dollar video, this one! Training and humor.
Good to have y'all being mentors to the youngens!
We’re in hill country in Kentucky, it’s the best thing for horses!
The great imposter 😂
😅😅 packed with side lines..
👍👍👍
I was watching this thinking, what size were those logs again. I'm certain it's larger than 8. Then Pat so nicely answered the question. Thanks. I'm happy I didn't have to go back and hunt for it.
I was really needing my Pat and Deb fix! Good lesson. Thanks.
Pls continue to break each movement down . . . so much clearer to me yes he only has 10 minutes no one asked him to be presents, be here - - great video pls keep doing them.
Gratefully V in CO
👍redundant is good. Thanks for your patience.
Keep educating and entertaining.
I havent missed one video.
From SE corner of Alberta
Saying the same thing multiple times when it needs to be said isn't a bad thing. Thank you for the videos.
Don't you wish to follow Pat around for a day while he works his horses and just pepper him with questions? It would surely drive him crazy, but I'd love it.
Love your nonsense training 😂
I'm looking forward to this next video.. is it that warm on the highline?
Spotty weather here in McDermitt
can we get a video on Pat's thoughts/suggestions on flat brim hats!? brands/styles/best places to find them and how to shape em? shoutout from riverdale, ca
Is he club foot? That front white one esp. ?
Pat I just found out my horse has a suspensory ligament injury. He probably has had this for a while but because it was located in a distal hind limb it didn’t show up well. This is all to say, disengaging the hind end, which I was teaching him, was the worst thing to do for him. So now I am concerned about doing this maneuver of turning him in a tight circle even after he had healed. Do you have any tips for a horse with a leg injury where turning them and disengaging them is contraindicated ?
when doing groundwork training sessions, how long should they be, when the horse "gets it" that is, he understand what is being asked of him., how many times should you repete the exercise during a training session? Many times should you repeat the exercise during a training session? Does the missing link bit come in different sizes? thank you
We don't believe in drilling a horse. Once the exercise is completed to our satisfaction, we don't repeat it endlessly. It's just a matter of feeling when the horse understands and is doing it willingly. We don't train a horse to mindlessly do something so repetition isn't necessary once the horse knows to move away from pressure whenever asked. The Missing Link Snaffle comes in one size. There are a number of videos explaining how it works. Here's a playlist: czcams.com/play/PLqolZu7D-bMOITvf8dN1RmjpcHec_a_3a.html&si=Rl6uEHVyO25pPwd6
Do y’all pen him up alone, away from the other horses??
When Pat says disengage the feet to get the head back, what is meant by disengaging the feet?
He's talking about when the bag leg crosses. That's disengaged. And it's good to do that before hopping on
It's when the back leg crosses the other leg.
@@thomaskennedy2942 Is it because, as a prey animal, horse rear legs are "cocked" to naturally bolt at a moments notice?
@@WacoA.I. idk. Good thought though
@@thomaskennedy2942 I'm guessing that it's either something like that, or something like when horses are bumping into the logs during Pat's sidepass training, which seems to distract the horse long enough for it's mind to just let go for a second.
