Tying a Horse using a Bank Robber Knot - Tying a Bowline Knot - Rick Gore Horsemanship

[Annathesurfer]

Could you possibly do a video on how to tie a rope onto a rope halter, like a rope without a loop end?

@Annathesurfer : read my rope halter page, I have pictures and show this.

Rick, with the bank robber knot couldnt the horse learn how to untie the knot if its really easy to undo? cause at the barn i go to they have lessons and if they dont use a lesson horse in the lesson they did before they leave the horse tied and the horse learned to untie itself i know this is a people problem but couldnt the bank robber knot be bad for that?

[horseawareness]

@Mombeingsilly : any slip knot can be easily untied by a horse. If a horse unties, like buddy, I just slide the free end through the loop so it they pull on that it will not untie.

@horseawareness well yea i gues thats true...silly me lol

Thanks Rick, great videos, on another note, the videos have improved a lot now that you have a helper, maybe try and get some foam or fake fur cover for the mike on the video cam, cuts out all that wind noise, available most video cam stores, keep up the good work.

@jimmybee49 : only had helper for one day - we did 15 videos in about 6 hours. So back to me just talking. :) The mic was internal to cam and fixed on front but the foam may have helped, unfortunately I did not get to see or hear any of the videos until we were done for the day, so we got what we got.

Wow! I'm definitely trying out the robber knot tomorrow. I usually get all confused when people try to show me stuff like that, but you have a very nonchalant way of doing it that doesn't make it hard to understand at all!

Simple, but very useful post. :)

You could not have explained that knot any better! I now have a million rubber bands tied to my pens practicing and cannot wait to do it tonight with the lead rope. You ROCK!

[rihannafan2323]

this is very very helpful!!!

cause you can't really put a rope halter in cross ties and i personally dont like cross ties, so thank you!!

i have a question, i remeber you mentioning this in on of your videos but i can't remeber which one it is now.

the lead rope you used on Tanner, where did you get it?

@rihannafan2323 : I like Clinton Anderson rope halters, I have links on my Rope Halter Page of my web site.
