Spurs with a large number of spokes that are blunted are actually far safer and humane to use. Most folks have no idea how to use them properly anyway. You don't poke the animal, you gently run the rowel along the flank of the horse.
In the military , Cavalry Scouts have a tradition called “The order of the spur” silver spurs for completing a spur ride and gold spurs for combat
"I got spurs that jingle jangle jingle, as I go right merrily along."
Spurs are not harmful. It only pokes the horse. It does not stab them.
I never ride my moped without my spurs
There he is ladies and gentlemen, the Scourge of Tucson, watering flowers
I watched this video in the spur of the moment
Thanks , Santee ! You earned your spurs by making this video . What do horsemen call it when they whip a steed's flanks with a length of leather or rawhide ? Isn't the thing called a quirt , and quitring is the action of using it ? Also , what about whips ? Buggy whips , cattle whips , whips used as weapons and punishment devices ? My background is naval , and old times sailors used whips as devices of punishment , the most infamous was the Cat 'O Nine Tails . The saying "There isnt enough room to swing a cat " comes from the fact that a whip can't be weilded in a small room . In another train of thought , a rider wearing spurs can walk up a flight of stairs normally , but must walk down stairs sideways like a crab . Failure to do so would cause a sudden and possibly injurious fall .
I'am very disappointed it's not used for cutting pizzas
Howdy, Santee, I think you've earned your SPURS on CZcams. Congratulations and keep it up.
My grandpa taught me all I know about ranching, and I never saw him wear spurs once. He had a pair in the tackroom of the barn. He said that the only time he wore/used spurs were for a new horse or on a long drive. After working for a long time even a good horse can get "unreasonable", and it takes a spur to get their attention. (About 2 weeks if I remember what he said correctly, he died in 2008. Those were mostly in the 1910s and 20s) "You don't need spurs but very seldom" and "If you need spurs to ride a horse, either you don't know how or you need to sell the horse" are somethings I still remember him saying in the late 70s as I was working for him. I have never worn a spur riding... never have needed to.
Love the sound of jinglebobs. Didn't know they were for the top hands. When I cowboyed I were spurs a lot. But before you use them make sure you know what your doing had a friend "poke" his paint and ended up sitting in the middle of a gravel road it was hiliarious... Love the channel keep them coming.
I purchased a set of Cowboy Church spurs to put on my oldest set of boots. Really look so good on my book shelf, as a retired trucker I just wear boots with naked heels.
You really spurred me on to watch this. Looks like you didn’t make this in the spur of the moment. Ok ok. Great video.
They can also be used like in Hidalgo.
Must get some jingle-bobs for mine.
Home run! Loved this! i learned what actually makes that noise when you see the cowboys in movies walk.
In'erestin'... I recently rode with a workin' wrangler who still wore spurs, with small rowels with blunt ends. I was a little surprised by that. His stuff, his horse, his choice...
Thanks For Sharing This Interesting Vdo 🌷💝🍁💜
Were a spire (large mex rowel w/jingle bob) on my right boot (bum leg) so I know it’s still working (🤪). Always get people letting me know I’m missing a spire, tell them “only need one, only got one bad leg”. As always great vid, always informative. 👍🏼🤠
