HOW TO TEACH YOUR HORSE TO CONNECT IN A SLIDING STOP

Watch how I help my assistant Lee teach a 2 yr. old to connect in the sliding stop. This takes repetition and consistency.

Hi again MATT
Good to see you!
It's in the repetition saying what you want them to do and giving them the chance to do it by their own choice.
Never to forget the praise! Same way I train the dogs too!
Thx as always for sharing...

Nice. I liked this video about teaching two year olds to stop on their own. Not alot of pressure on them. Great!

Goddamn. I feel like if I mentored with you for a week or two I think I’d go home with more knowledge than the entire year I spent colt training at CSU.

[maxmausamer]

Yes Matt.... thanks. Very Entertaining to see you

[jessymorales]

I like how you teach to sliding stop Matt

Matt, remember 'muscle shirts' and seat heaters.

Do you have any tips on getting a horse to stop on their hind end instead of front end I just recently bought a mare that’s been trained as a cowhorse she stops heavy on her forehand instead of on her hind end and trying to slide

[KennethYoungJr]

I wish I could get this type of mentorship. It would be an honor

Its the same thechnic used to train dogs to heel and sit on comaned years ago🤔 its realy cool as a dog trainer to look at horse trainers

My boy never really liked anything but he really enjoys stopping and backing up but I’m trying to get him to slide, he’s a bit stiff in the mouth and lifts his head when I stop him anything you recommend for staying to get them to soften

Hi, I am just learning how to do sliding stops and I’m riding this horse that stops really well but I always get pounded into the pommel or I get launched out of the seat. I’ve been trying to put all my weight in my stirrups but I can never sit it. Do you think my weight could be part of the problem (100lbs)? If not what can I do to sit the stop better?

Is the low head carry a natural characteristic of a Quarter Horse?

[rosebroussard]

How to get a horse to slide stop and keep pedaling in the front?

[KatJst]

Nice coaching. Good timing. The rider needs to learn to be a bit more intuitive and Matt has that feel. I'd live to ride with him!

Hi Matt! Love watching these videos! Do you have have any tips for a horse who dead stops off a woah alone, but does so by locking his front end. So he doesn’t use his but to stop, instead locks his front legs (and throws his rider, me, kinda forward in the saddle). He’s not a reining horse by any means, but it would be nice to be able to have a nice stop that doesn’t pop me out of the saddle.

I think a lot of its the rider. She is breathing hard, and she is not a happy camper. her ears are back consistently.

14:42 + what the actual heck is that guy in the background doing to that poor horse, ! Yanking very very hard on it;s mouth. I have loved all your trainings and tips but that shit ain't cool by whomever that is.
