    How much are you willing to pay for your saddle stock?

    JB, your deal with selling that horse,"that needed"trainin reminded me of a deal I made a few years ago. The horse was a good looking 5 yr old that was plumb broke. The guy couldn`t get along with him so I went and helped them move cows and I rode him. The new owner said I`ve been rideing horses...

    Blue heeler removing horse's tails and injuring goats- help?

    I know what you mean Soapweed and I was at that point once too. I finally learned how to make them work with me. Heck I know dogs aren`t for everyone. Who knows someday I may even own an atv. As for right now HECK NO.

    Blue heeler removing horse's tails and injuring goats- help?

    A well known rancher and dog handler that lives near here said a long time ago, when he leaves the yard he knows where his dogs are. Either tied or keneled. I`ve assumed the same routine. These dogs can be a real asset if you let them, but they can be a real problem if you let them also. There`s...

    Rodeo Story

    Welcome Bunny, glad to see you gave rodeo a look and found it to be comfortable for you. PPRM, Dr. Hatfield is darn sure one of the most low key knowlegeable people I`ve ever heard of. His simple approach sure can be used by many.

    Riding colts.

    The use of spurs is just another tool you can have as useing different bits. Cues with spurs are neither painful or frighting if used right. I like short shank small rowels. But that`s all in preference.

    Bucking horse

    I agree with Oldtimer. If you`ve ridden 1000+ horses no more needs to be contemplated.

    Bucking horse

    Take Oldtimer`s advise. And if you`ve been on 1000 horses, no more needs to be dicussed.

    Young Horse Attitude

    A couple of years ago we stopped at a trainer near Ellendale Minn. His name was Buck Wheeler orginally from Ft Yates ND. He was useing a stablizer on some real hot horses. When the endoferens kicked in they would spray them down with water. The hotbloods were at that point docile and easy to...

    Young Horse Attitude

    Obviously some thing set him off. Sometimes if you check them up both directions till he starts a sweat he will give you his undivided attention. There are other little "tricks", but maybe the best solution is as Jinglebob said, "Find a GOOD trainer". I might add one that rides outside.

    Tie,or dally?

    The rodeo grounds at Stanley County can be a real "hell hole" in hot weather. There is NO air movement.

    Tie,or dally?

    Jingle Bob or TX Tibbs, don`t know if either of you remember when the SDRA had hard and fast team ropeing. But it got to be pretty hard on stock when the header went down the rope to tie the back legs. I prefer dally, but if needed or the situation calls for it have tied on. Typically I`ll...

    Dog trainer

    Our Dad used to love to go to auctions for the "bargins" by the pickup load. One time one of my brothers was unloading the "bargins" when he asked Dad, "what is this?" Dad replied, "I don`t know but it looks good."
