 I've tried to put a little tape together that's, you know, try and cover everything that has helped me be consistent and competitive in training and showing some carton horses. I'm going to work a lot around on feet and main emphasis on working these straight lines. Working this smaller square pen is about 110 square, you've got a lot more contact to a cow. Hopefully, through this tape, you're going to get a good feel of the basic program that I use to build confidence in these young horses, to get them to where they're in a show situation so that they're solid, they're smooth and confident. I'm going to start out today maybe with just some two-year-olds that have been on cattle probably around six, seven months. I'm going to work on showing you the consistent pattern of trying to work a young horse and build a foundation here that I can get to end up with a finished product. When I'm dry-working these horses or getting them ready to work on a cow, I really don't want them to be intimidated by me, but I want them soft and I want them listening to me so that when I push to this stop over here and take my feet out, there's really not a lot of pressure on the reins. Now that cow kind of beat me there a little bit, but that's not a big deal. Right now all I'm trying to do is get this mare turning around the way I want it to, traveling that straight line, thinking about that cow good, start that turn slow and let me increase that speed out of there. Start that turn slow and increase that speed out of there. I'm pushing to that stop over here. She's not just reacting to that cow. Right there that mare's real collected, holding that line, staying up against that cow, going in and out of that same hole just like I talked about on those two-year-olds. Right there you see how this mare is quick to that stop. If I don't get all the way through the bottom of that stop, this mare is going to be short on that cow. She's quick coming back through there. I've got a hold here, keep some feet on her there, make a weight on that cow a little bit. Right there, it's nice and relaxed, just trotting across that pin. Okay, this is a mare that I've sure had a lot of success on, so is Jim. She's been a good, consistent mare, a mare called Quinton Blue, and she's five-year-old. I work her maybe in just this little, solid C-bit kind of deal right here is what I show her in a lot. Same deal with her. You know, before I go to show her, I'm just going to pull her around, make sure she's listening to me a little bit. You know, if I need to back her up, make her listen to my feet and get vending. Push to that stop. Run and stop there a little quicker. Get control of that cow. Now, this is what all this foundation that I've tried to put on these young horses is trying to come to achieve, is that when I get to a stage where I'm built this show horse up a little bit more, you know, the same deal applies that, you know, I can have them go ahead that cow a little stronger, you know, but they're not going to worry about it because they've gone and done through the motions all the way. I can push to that stop just a little bit quicker. Let her read that cow right there. Get to that stop just a little quicker, all the way across.
