this it amazing, i've always loved the western side of america, i love rodeos and stuff and being a ranch girl, but i live in sweden, so one day im gonna move to america and follow my dreams.
No offence like but that horse looks sooo sad and depressed!! I don't see how anybody could look at that horse and find it "inspiring"! I feel sorry for horses that are trained like this they have no life!!!!
@EPRFowler My guess is that this horse probably has a pretty cushy life. I don't see a horse that is "sad and depressed", I see one that is free and easy-moving, and is FOCUSING on what it's doing.
I apologize beforehand for my very bad English. After years of classic riding ; I've just began to ride western. I like the horse 's attitude, the delicacy of the helps is incredible. The changes of foot are fluid and defenseless on behalf of the horse
I wish you good continuation and I hope to arrive at this level one day =)
@HorsieRider125 I agree the lead changes are like crazy good lol..do you ride western?? because I ride english and I dont know anything about western. but Im going to start taking western lessons just for fun you know? but I need some advise on like what to buy and stuff. so if you know you think you can help me out?
@livelaughlove79318 yea defiantly! Ok so first u need a western saddle pad, and a western saddle (der) So i have looked online for western saddles and there r sum pretty good deals! beware: western saddles r usually WAY heavier than english ones! if u r concerned about the weight u might try the wintec saddle, aka synthetic saddle. those go for like 500, not bad! Also wat breed do u have?? Also u need to buy a new bridle a western one. if u go to most saddle shops they will help u in that.
@HorsieRider125 haha thanks(: I will def. look into to wintec saddles I have a wintec dressage and I really like it. Second, I have a TB/hanovarian cross that could not do barrels to save his life, so im going to be using my new trainer horse who already has a western bridle. am i supposed to where jeans and like cowgirl boots to my lesson? or breeches, paddock boots, and chaps? and what about helmets? I dont wan't to look like an idiot trying to fit at a new barn..lol. thanks(:
@livelaughlove79318 ur welcome! ok so u breeches work fine but jeans r the traditional wear. pretty much all english wear works just as well but it depends on how u want to look. I usually wear jeans, western boots and an english helmet, since it is a jumping helmet and therefore gives me better protection, b/c of the horse I ride. So there r trail riding helmets that would look and fit in better than my jumping one with a western outfit. But, again if u wore all english wear riding western,
@HorsieRider125 So a GPA helmet would be ok? Im kinda tight on cash so I dont want to go buy another 500 dollar helmet lol. and jeans look better with western, I have a pair of western boots..but idk if they are for riding or not, how can I tell? I think your comment got cut off or something..not sure though. and thanks for all the advise(:
@livelaughlove79318 yea i understand haha! ok so first u can tell by just seein how hard the top of the foot part iz (lol i dunno if that makes sense) and if the heels is supa big or supa small it is prob not a western boot. or u can go online and see the measurements and looks of real riding boots if u r not sure. yea thats fine! although traditional western wear doesn't have helmets but i wouldn't not wear a helmet
@HorsieRider125 yeahh, I used to think just hacking would be fine without a helmet..the first freaking time I rode without a helmet at the TROT..my horse spooked at pigeons and I fell..next think I remember is being at the hospital..I got a concussion..I mean it was the first time I wasnt wearing a helmet lols. and thanks for all the advise(: do you barrel race? I was looking at your vids and they all looked like western pleasure.
@livelaughlove79318 wow haha i have never ridden without a helmet, my parents won't let me. I have been working on her in-hand gallop and turns, but she is trained in western pleasure so it is pretty much both. She is prob the laziest horse ever so it is super difficult to get her in-hand gallop!
@HorsieRider125 hahaha nice. lol, yeah my parents wernt thrilled when they found me laying in the arena with no helmet lol. and yeah I leased a horse like that a while ago..she failed at jumpers. her gallop like matched another horses trot lol. and btw in some of your vids the background of the mountains is like gorgeous!
@livelaughlove79318 haha! aww! I wish that prima knew how to jump.. hey also is it ok/safe to have her lope over a ground pole, w/ english tack? yea garrod farms has really nice weather and scenery. I go to a lot of barns and there is none quite like garrod! there is so much wildlife and super nice trails. i LOVE garrod hehe
@HorsieRider125 yeah im sure it will be fine lol, she will probably just lope over it like its nothing...I would suggest possibly cantering her over the pole though, just because you want to do it in english tack, because if you ever want to jump with her you want her to be used to cantering over poles. and if you dont feel comfortable getting on right away and doing it, tack her up and before you get on just lunge her over the pole a few times in each direction to get her used to it(:
@livelaughlove79318 ok so will it b fine if the pole will b there the whole time, with like post trotting and 2 pointing at the trot and stuff? also do u know how to make homemade jumps? i need them to kinda b like cavalettis just not too high
umm can sum1 send me a copy of what i said in my comment, because i cant for the life of me remember what the hell i said. 20 is too young for alzheimers....
@breyercowgirl64 ... no xD but i'm about to teach my horse (don't know what galloppwechsel is in english maybe:) changing the lope ... it's really hard work, because his exterior is bad for doing so... his "back legs" (i know it's the wrong word, but what the hell is "hinterhand" in english?!) is about 5-8 cm higher than his OMG "wiederrist" (highest point over the shoulder?!) ..
man, how difficult to talk about horses in english ^^
wow amazing! and I love at the end when she is getting her award and the judge walks in front of the horse and hes like "come 'ear I just want a little nibble"
you know, as perfect as this horse looks, if you read the rule book description for western riding in AQHA it refers to a ranch horse. I seriously doubt any ranch would welcome this horse. And why does she not look back when she backs..... Great show horse ride but don't call it ranchhorse riding......
This is an awesome video. This is the perfect example for how a good western horse should move and travel. He is controlled and slow but still has enough impulsion to look natural. I wish every western pleasure judge in the world would look at this horse and make this type of movement the standard. Gorgeous.
I don't know anything about riding horses yet, so whatever the difference between English/Western style of riding is then I'm bound to find out with the power of google in about 2 seconds....
I hate show jumpin, dressage and all "english ridning" but western, Love it! though my horse & I don't know anything. But she's quite good at neck-rein and barrel racing :D
I think you have out done yourself here and soooo lovely to see you doing the pattern in a forward moving manner ,Oh and there is nothing wrong with you seat!
He wouldnt do such a stunning Job if you couldnt ride him correctley .
@Christianrider93 What the hell is your problem? "can you lope and stay in the saddle"? Don't be putting this person down. I don't think you under stand how hard it is to do a pattern like that. Western ridding is hard. I freaken HATE englishy dressage people!!!!
@TattieAddiiction what is so wrong with dressage? many trainers in the western pleasure industry use dressage to better their horses. dressage is the basics of all riding.
@Christianrider93 I do all-around witch mean i ride hunter under saddle and wesstern pleasure. You have never riddin an actual Western pleasure trained horse. If you think you have then you wouldn't be putting it down. Western pleasure is a million times harder than english! i ride both!! i would know!!!
@TattieAddiiction english riding contains many sports in the category. i doubt you have become a great rider in all of them and in western to be able to know which is harder. all english sports are difficult, the most perhaps being dressage. and i think if anyone knows anything about dressage, they would know thats the most demanding of the horse and rider. western and hunter/jumper people all use dressage basics to train their horses.
Appaloosa's are not excactly stubborn it's just that they KNOW they're always right and the rider is wrong...LOL However it sure comes in handy on trails when the rider puts the horse in a sink hole. Or the pet steer escapes and you have to get him back in his stall, or well I could go on..HAHA Don't forget that Appaloosa's are opinionanted and bossy as well as stubborn but we wouldn't have it any other way:)
beautiful..... i wouldn't really say that bout western plesure because u dont do the retard canter not that i dont like western plesure its just that it looks unnatural
I love how your horse has a noticable difference in gait. Most western pleasure horses you can hardly tell the walk from a trot Very Well Ridden (: and did he try to bite the judge? lol
well, i don`t really like appaloosa. but this was a really good ride.looks great.....and bye the way...this is not boring. It`s hard training for such a good handling horse.
What an amazing and beautiful stallion. Appaloosas are not only beautiful but very intelligent, this stallion makes the hard work and training put into him show!
To the comment below me...I can see how you'd think a dog show could be more entertaining if you don't ride horses. If you don't ride horses than you wouldn't understand how much practice and training goes into these horses and riders. It looks simple to the non-horsey eye but it's actually really technical and it probably took this rider their whole life just to be IN this show.
that would have to have been one of the nicest, cleanest west. riding patterns i have ever seen. well done!! everyone fighting over wheter english or western is better needs to wake up and listen to themselves. we ride horses because we love and enjoy it, and those that say one is better than the other are too scared to stand up and actually try what they are bagging. stop being so closed minded and admire a job well done, whatever the dicipline may be.
i like that your horse is actually moving forward in his gaits and his head is in the correct position. im glad that circuit training is getting better and horses cand move like they are supposed to. wonderful work, you deserved the title definetly. :-D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
okay, I'm sorry, just because you put a western saddle on a horse doesn't mean your western... western is fast, fun, and furious. Not jogging in little circles.
you are obviously absolutely clueless. this horse is incredible. you have no idea how hard it is to teach one to do the western riding, even harder to make one that good. and you have no idea how much strength and coordination it takes for a horse to do a lead change that smooth and clean and make it look effortless. so take your fast fun and furious and shove it up your ass.
it's western pleasure, not rodeo! I do both and love both, but the training and work involved to be able to complete a pattern like this definitely deserves proper recognition. It IS western riding!
seriosuly? thats called western gaming, this is called western PLEASURE! its suppose to look like that horse is a pleasure to ride, and its not like it's easy!
I have been riding horses for 15 years, and i although i prefer western riding, i also love english riding and have respect for english riders. For you english riders, dont knock western riding till you try it and to you western riders, dont knock english riding till you try it. Both are great!
@allshallbelosttoyou the way you refer to western riding in this comment you seem to be talking about the discipline not the class. This video is a class called western riding which is performed in western style........just seems odd to comment on the discipline under a video showing the class with the same name??
@allshallbelosttoyou I totally agree. I started out riding western then switched to english to jump but I still respect western even if I don't ride it. I prefer english but they both are good sports
very pretty app. i have 3 yr old appaloosa stud and most ppl said that by 3 he would be crazy bcuz hes a stud but u couldnt ask for a beter natured horse he does any and every thing i ask him 2 and i do barrels and poles and he is very high spirited when were doing that he gets a great time and when i want to just trail he does that 2 and hes already breed and hes still my buddy soo ppl dont know an appaloosa as well as they think they do
I ride primarily English (although I've done a fair amount of Western as well in the past...). While I love my English saddle, the responsiveness of a finished western horse on a loose rein is incredible. Good western horsemanship gives the horse a lot of responsibility for performing...the rider obviously has to be spot-on too. I would love to see some English riders I know drop their reins and show changes of speed and lead changes within the canter on a draped rein! lol That's control!
I wish we could all just get along. English and Western riding are very different but both are very diffacult. I have been riding and training english and western for around 8 years and I am only 13. I started riding english when I was 5 and have been training both for around 3-4 years. I love both the same and have ridden every disipline there is. Some I did really bad at. My best are barrel and jumping. But I do good in most. Both are beautiful none the less.
OMG....some of the comments I've read here are ridiculous. Congrats to this team on a beautiful ride! I showed hunter/jumper for 12 years and 4 years ago discovered reining. I have come to really appreciate ALL equine breeds and their respective disciplines. Any talented equine athlete/rider should be appreciated, but it's really amazing to ride a really broke horse that can perform like this one....totaly relaxed on no contact. Great ride! Congrats!
Personally I think it was a beautiful ride, and people need to be a little less immature and just enjoy the video for the great example of horsemanship that it is. (And YES, I ride both English & Western, and can appreciate the ride).
uh, no offense to the rider but ur lope was way to stiff, u might of been nervos or somthing but relax, and when u trottted over the first pole it wasnt very good, but im trying to help, im not trying to b offensive.........and to the ppl that say western is for sissys SHUT UP!!!! ibeen ride western and i dont dislike english or think its stupid i just like western better
you shouldn't be saying negative things about a winning pattern at the world show. obviously her pattern was pretty much flawless. she would not have won it if it wasn't, and plus Inpassable is an amazing horse.
I wasn't making fun of you or your comment, I was simply saying that you should not be saying anything negitive about a world champion ride, or for that matter, Mary Hogan. She has rode to many world champion titles, and obviously knows what shes doing. I respect her, and I think she deserves it. Her pattern was infact, flawless.
Hahaha You people are fighting over if western or english is better. How bout you learn to do both and realize were all on the same team because we all love riding and competing. Grow Up.
i completely agree, i love this style of riding, i have only ridden western a couple of time, my horse is ridden english style atm, but im going to try and teach him western aswell. hes a very good jumping horse so i want to be able to do both. english for the dressage and jumping, western for the hacks(slide stops, spinning, barrel racing, cutting), and other awesome tricks you can do western.
yep it sure is...english is so much harder then western. "NOT"!! i bet no english horse can do that!!! that take years of riding and just plan talent to do that!!!! Lets see you stay on a cutting horse and not fall off! Lets see you get on a barrel horse making times of 14sec. lets see you do reining! lets see you do western pleasure! lets see you do roping! o, wait, i almost forgot...YOU CANT!!!!!!
i ride english and western. i take offense to this and btw jumping especially cross country has taken more horses and riders lives than speed events, and dressage can do more long term damage to a horses joints than barrels or poles.
@AppaloosaProductions ehh.. idk if it would do more damage to them than barrels or poles.. I mean both horses are well kept and cared for. But i don't think it would cause more damage than barrels/poles.
my western horse thats been to the congress and jump 4ft. so you dont know what your talking about!! Barrel racing doesnt break there legs! jumping and cross country is more dangerous!!! there are way more horses to die in that then in speed events!!
You don't see horses die in speed events like you do in X-country. I remember Le Samari die in X-country at the last jump, broke his ankle I think. NEVER seen a western horse ever die from showing in an event.
Dressage horses go through all sorts of crap, with all the hyperflexion shit. You don't see barrel racers push their horse's noses into their chests. (BTW I'm not saying all dressage riders do that, but there are enough to be concerned).
hey i have a question. At my stable like almost everyone rides english in lessons exept for some who own horses there and stuff. Im like the only one who rides western in lessons. is that because im good enough to ride english yet or something? ive been riding western for 3 years and i love it but just wondering.
Wow ik ben gek van western! Maar ik rij het zelf niet!

@TattieAddiiction what is so wrong with dressage? many trainers in the western pleasure industry use dressage to better their horses. dressage is the basics of all riding.

@Christianrider93 I do all-around witch mean i ride hunter under saddle and wesstern pleasure. You have never riddin an actual Western pleasure trained horse. If you think you have then you wouldn't be putting it down. Western pleasure is a million times harder than english! i ride both!! i would know!!!

@TattieAddiiction english riding contains many sports in the category. i doubt you have become a great rider in all of them and in western to be able to know which is harder. all english sports are difficult, the most perhaps being dressage. and i think if anyone knows anything about dressage, they would know thats the most demanding of the horse and rider. western and hunter/jumper people all use dressage basics to train their horses.

IStartWithGlowPlugs 2 years ago
Appaloosa's are not excactly stubborn it's just that they KNOW they're always right and the rider is wrong...LOL However it sure comes in handy on trails when the rider puts the horse in a sink hole. Or the pet steer escapes and you have to get him back in his stall, or well I could go on..HAHA Don't forget that Appaloosa's are opinionanted and bossy as well as stubborn but we wouldn't have it any other way:)

To the comment below me...I can see how you'd think a dog show could be more entertaining if you don't ride horses. If you don't ride horses than you wouldn't understand how much practice and training goes into these horses and riders. It looks simple to the non-horsey eye but it's actually really technical and it probably took this rider their whole life just to be IN this show.

that would have to have been one of the nicest, cleanest west. riding patterns i have ever seen. well done!! everyone fighting over wheter english or western is better needs to wake up and listen to themselves. we ride horses because we love and enjoy it, and those that say one is better than the other are too scared to stand up and actually try what they are bagging. stop being so closed minded and admire a job well done, whatever the dicipline may be.

okay, I'm sorry, just because you put a western saddle on a horse doesn't mean your western... western is fast, fun, and furious. Not jogging in little circles.
elk96 2 years ago
you are obviously absolutely clueless. this horse is incredible. you have no idea how hard it is to teach one to do the western riding, even harder to make one that good. and you have no idea how much strength and coordination it takes for a horse to do a lead change that smooth and clean and make it look effortless. so take your fast fun and furious and shove it up your ass.

allshallbelosttoyou 2 years ago 14
@allshallbelosttoyou the way you refer to western riding in this comment you seem to be talking about the discipline not the class. This video is a class called western riding which is performed in western style........just seems odd to comment on the discipline under a video showing the class with the same name??

COWGURL4LIFE11 2 years ago
I ride primarily English (although I've done a fair amount of Western as well in the past...). While I love my English saddle, the responsiveness of a finished western horse on a loose rein is incredible. Good western horsemanship gives the horse a lot of responsibility for performing...the rider obviously has to be spot-on too. I would love to see some English riders I know drop their reins and show changes of speed and lead changes within the canter on a draped rein! lol That's control!

I wish we could all just get along. English and Western riding are very different but both are very diffacult. I have been riding and training english and western for around 8 years and I am only 13. I started riding english when I was 5 and have been training both for around 3-4 years. I love both the same and have ridden every disipline there is. Some I did really bad at. My best are barrel and jumping. But I do good in most. Both are beautiful none the less.

OMG....some of the comments I've read here are ridiculous. Congrats to this team on a beautiful ride! I showed hunter/jumper for 12 years and 4 years ago discovered reining. I have come to really appreciate ALL equine breeds and their respective disciplines. Any talented equine athlete/rider should be appreciated, but it's really amazing to ride a really broke horse that can perform like this one....totaly relaxed on no contact. Great ride! Congrats!

Personally I think it was a beautiful ride, and people need to be a little less immature and just enjoy the video for the great example of horsemanship that it is. (And YES, I ride both English & Western, and can appreciate the ride).

I wasn't making fun of you or your comment, I was simply saying that you should not be saying anything negitive about a world champion ride, or for that matter, Mary Hogan. She has rode to many world champion titles, and obviously knows what shes doing. I respect her, and I think she deserves it. Her pattern was infact, flawless.

i completely agree, i love this style of riding, i have only ridden western a couple of time, my horse is ridden english style atm, but im going to try and teach him western aswell. hes a very good jumping horse so i want to be able to do both. english for the dressage and jumping, western for the hacks(slide stops, spinning, barrel racing, cutting), and other awesome tricks you can do western.

i ride english and western. i take offense to this and btw jumping especially cross country has taken more horses and riders lives than speed events, and dressage can do more long term damage to a horses joints than barrels or poles.

@AppaloosaProductions ehh.. idk if it would do more damage to them than barrels or poles.. I mean both horses are well kept and cared for. But i don't think it would cause more damage than barrels/poles.

my western horse thats been to the congress and jump 4ft. so you dont know what your talking about!! Barrel racing doesnt break there legs! jumping and cross country is more dangerous!!! there are way more horses to die in that then in speed events!!
equinecoach1 2 years ago
You don't see horses die in speed events like you do in X-country. I remember Le Samari die in X-country at the last jump, broke his ankle I think. NEVER seen a western horse ever die from showing in an event.
Dressage horses go through all sorts of crap, with all the hyperflexion shit. You don't see barrel racers push their horse's noses into their chests. (BTW I'm not saying all dressage riders do that, but there are enough to be concerned).
There's abuse in every sport, so shut it.

Im like the only one who rides western in lessons. is that because im good enough to ride english yet or something? ive been riding western for 3 years and i love it but just wondering.
xhorseluver12x 2 years ago
no not at all!! did you have a choice of riding western or english?
0soosweet 2 years ago
no they kinda just told me when i first started.

they probably did that b/c its easier to balance in the western saddle so if you are just starting out they could first see how well u sit, etc.
