77 years old and I'm not apologizing for being in tears! Baron was outstanding!!! First time in an indoor arena. First time hearing an amplified human voice. First time being around a bunch of strange horses. First time hearing yelling and clapping! And he kept his cool and did what was asked of him. I can't hold down my emotions! 😂😂🎉🎉 I missed Brenda. But very good job Jim!! 👏

Jim, Baron and Bill working together in the woods is such good experience. They pulled as a team with each contributing their muscle to pull the load. I’m sure you were pleased, we all were pleased too.

Jim I admire you for not hooking up with the possibility of hurting them. Well done

Well done to Baron and Bill! Thank you to Jim. And thank you to all involved in the Pull.

Bill trying to give the side eye to Baron saying "boy, you better get your game face on" . 😂

You must be so proud of the B team. What a job on Baron's first horse pull! I almost wish you had let them pull one more time, but I completely understand why you didn't. You are a great horseman, Jim, and I so appreciate that you put your horses' well being above bragging rights. What a fine young horse Baron is.

Well done Barron and Bill for first time out. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

It’s hard to find the words to express how proud of Baron and Bill I was watching this video…. And they aren’t even my horse!! But, thanks to you and your wonderful wife Brenda, you’ve allowed us to watch Baron ( and his brothers ) grow up and learn and what a great treat it’s been! I look forward to seeing Baron and Bill and eventually Duke and Earl show just how good they are!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Jim! For videoing this event and showing all of us the results of your training!!

The power in these animals is amazing, yet they stand so docilely when you handle them.... Gotta love em

I'm 79 years old. Ben going to pulls in western Massachusetts all my life. Your the best teamster I've ever seen. Thank you and God bless

Blows my mind 2 horses can pull 7700LBS on a sled. Thank you for the video very impressive.

Jim, I thought the horses did a great job for first timers. Congratulations. I will say I sure like watching Buck and Ken pulling the best I have seen. They were just an amazing team. You are truly blessed.

So impressed with Baron! His personality is so solid - he handles this strange situation like a seasoned horse.

Baron did an awesome job, and Bill has been a great mentor for him! Bill always does his fair share of the pull he really enjoys it.

That was impressive! Baron caught on to the game immediately. No fussing about, crowd, speakers, strange horses. Time in the woods has really made that horse, and this is just the beginning. New A team, old A team will not be seen competing again, not with that young powerhouse learning the game. Bill did whisper in Baron's ear, "It's cool, young buddy, we can do this, just stay with me." Good on you for conceding, unlike that black, which totally lacked conditioning and heart. And tail! Is docking still permitted over there? Horse God was not amused. Can't even knock the tails off foxie pups here in Australia. Jim, your judgment of Baron's ability is perfect. Now he can only get better with experience. A worthy beginning. Great view from the stoneboat, but we did miss Brenda.

Baron seemed to have it figured out by the third pull. He looked like he was having fun. He and Bill worked well together. Great job guys!

I was so impressed with Barons acceptance of all the new firsts, Bill is such a powerhouse, and your wisdom am and care of your horses to know when enough is enough. Great job ❤

Barron was amazing on his first outing. By the fourth hitch he knew the game! An he handled the experience indoors the other horses and all like a vet. Well done Jim!

Very dramatic how the horses anticipate the pull as they are being attached. Bill and Baron were eager and did Jim proud as well as all your fans!

It's amazing how quickly Baron figured what was expected of him. ❤

Well done Baron and Bill. They did well for Barons first, hes quite a horse . You must be proud Jim.

Baron and Bill did so well and I think they were the lightest team by quite a lot. Baron has come into his own. Hope Brenda and the granddaughter had a good day at their competition also.

no there were two teams lighter then them. One team had a colt that had never really been out of the barn yard or worked at all/very little. it was the team that had a small belgain and percheron horse together

I don't think it's a small Belgian, it looks like a Halflinger to me.

Baron surely didn't disappoint!!! You have him and Bill both in great shape! Do you expect Baron to fill out quite a bit more with some age on him? I surely don't know that much about it but always enjoy the videos and learning myself, what they are capable of as they mature and learn! They are impressive animals and God surely designed them to be man's greatest helper! One last thing. Jim, you did a fantastic job bringing the pull to us!! Loved the stone boat rides!!

WOW! Baron sure grew up fast!! Anyway, a job well done to Jim, Baron and Bill, as well as a shout out to all those who worked hard to put on the event and assist the teams during the pulling. I loved the camera views from the stone boat, you did a great job filming, although Brenda was missed. To all the irrational detractors saying this is "abuse" don't understand these horses LOVE to work, it's in their genetic makeup and you can't argue with science.

Baron and Bill never disappoint. Wow they did fantastic. The shot of us riding on the sled was awesome we really got to see the horses feet digging in. Thanks for the great video Jim. Hope Brenda is having fun with the grand kids.

Baron looked like a pro at this horse pull. I think you have a winner in him. He didn't look like he was struggling at all.

Baron looks good he's eager to pull

This video brought back memories. My Dad would go to 3 County Fair in Northampton,MA. He would watch each horse, driver, and how they interacted! Most every time, he picked the winning team. Jim, you remind me of my Dad. Quiet, gentle, loving; ready for a good,pull!❤ Thanks!

This is an amazing testament to how calm confident training produces calm confident horses! He trusts you won’t put him in danger so why fuss amazing

Jim your camera work was awesome. Really enjoyed when the camera was on the sled. Your horses are so in tune to you you make it look easy. I’m 77 yrs old from Reading Pennsylvania.

Not the video I was hoping for, but Baron video is also excellent. Always said Baron would do anything to please Jim. Not an expert but they looked to being doing well I'm so proud of them both.

Great job Bill And Baron,miss seeing Brenda.Hope she has a great day with her grandchildren.

Barron was having a blast

The B team showing their skills! Great drafting, Baron and Bill were fantastic.

Way to go Baron and Bill !! I'm home with a summer cold and laryngitis, clapping and screaming ! You do so so well by your horses Jim. What a great time! Baron is learning. Nice of others to film for you.

How rewarding for Jim and his team of horses

Jim love and enjoy watching your videos. May the lord bless and protect you and your horses at the pull

So nice to see these beautiful draft horses. Last year, we went to watch the horse pulls at our local fair, and I had to walk away. The "horsemanship" was so awful. (The horses were lovely.) Quite heartwarming to see this level of horsemanship and sportsmanship. Thank you for sharing.

Baron did so well for his first time.

Proud of your team, Jim. Good boy, Baron. He's learning from Bill.

This is so awesome, I've been excited to see the Suffolk's at a pull!

I’ve watched several of Jim’s pulls….this is the first time Ive seen Jerry’s horses not pull exceptionally….i wonder what was up. All the teams were exceptional

Baron did GREAT, he was right in there, you must be happy with his first time, great video be safe and be well,

Jim you with your horses Bill & Baron are true champions, always consider your horses first.

This video brings back fond memories of going to the horse pulls at the fairgrounds with my mom and grandfather. 😊

I just love your horses..they make you proud! I get excited to see them pull so well...thay are truly wonderful creatures. Bill is a returning champ and Baron is a successful rookie. ❤

Thanks jim

Jim , Congrats !!! on how well Baron and Bill did at the horse pull. For the lightest team there . They performed admirably . You Should be very proud of them .

Awesome 😎 job , Baron is doing great !!

Great job by everyone! Loved the shots from atop the pile of stones, it really shows the horsepower! Missed Brenda’s commentary but loved the creative videography. Yay Bill and Baron!

Baron did an excellent job along with Bill at his first ever pull! I know you are so proud of him! He handled the new experience so well, having to hear the loud voices, loud whistle, clapping, being close to strange horses and people, plus the indoor arena setting. Baron always wants to do what you have him do, and he does it well! He's a great horse, and I love that boy! Hoping next time we get to see a new baby foal with sweet Lady!!! Also hope Brenda had a great visit with the grandchildren! Missed her helping video the pull and explaining the event!

Baron and Bill did awesome together b

I think Baron did very well for his first pull, and I think in time and more pulls he will get a lot better. when the mind set sinks in. great effort by the Teamster and the "The Puller"s" thanks for sharing ECF.

Great Job! Bill and Baron are a powerhouse team!

I like those red harnesses they stand out good boys

Congratulations Jim, your big boys were wonderful. ❤

Tks a million for time and great video Jim . Baron and Bill had a day out working there muscles 💪 for sure . 😊 all horses 🐎 are winners 🎊 🎉 Jim . Horses 🐎 and peoples got there day to be winner in LIFE . 😊😊

Excellent pull Jim with Bill & Baron! Good judgment call too! You must be pleased.👍🏻👍🏻

I’m not too sure what you were expecting Jim but for Barons first timing pulling I was so impressed at how well he handled it. Just the newness and being in a strange environment sure was a test to Barons abilities. I think Baron has come a LONG way in a SHORT time and that is a testament to your horse training skills Jim. Bill, of course, went a long way in aiding Barons success and kudos to him as well. I truly miss Bill and Lady pulling together but maybe one day again we will see those two in action. I would be dishonest if I didn’t tell you just how much I miss seeing Ken and Buck pulling but those days are behind us but for repeat watching of the past videos. The video popping up in my feed about Bucks passing probably didn’t help the walk down memory lane but those were some very good memories! Hoping Brenda had a great day building memories with her grandbabies and I’ll bet you two had a great time sharing your day with each other. Now, can Lady move this pregnancy along to completion so we can have new stories to tell? Just anxious is all!!!:):):)

SALUTE TO BARRON AND BILL AND JIM.......GREAT JOB BOYS. As much as Brenda walks...a run with some girls will be a synch. lov from South Alabama. Good show to every owner of a horse team there..God Bless you all.

excellent go for Baron first. also camera settings were perfect for seeing everything good . yah nice...

Jim, thank you for bringing us to the horse pull, Brandon holds up quite nicely. Bill is quite a workhorse, Bill was giving away free horse apples. I liked it when Brenda announced people's names and how much weight the horses were pulling, but it was more important to be with the granddaughter. And I bet Brenda and 2 granddaughter had a great time. together.

Just adding another comment You are a great horseman Jim

This was exciting. Baron, Bill and Jim.....you did a great job ! !😊

Great job Baron and Bill .

What a beautiful place, how lucky you are

I thought Baron did an outstanding job for his first time. He didn’t hesitate at all just got into the harness!

Love you all. Baron looks taller. Good video, Jim.

The boy's did great job❤🙏👏👏👏👏

Great job Baron!! And Bill!! And Jim!!!

Great job Jim. Just like any athlete, training and competition is necessary to become a champion.

Love the camera angles! Fantastic job for the 1st pull

Barron and Bill did fantastic your a great horseman knowing your horses well enough to know their limits

How many of the teams are working horses and how many if any are just used for pulling? Wife & I love your videos. Keep up the good work

Wow great job done by Baron! Still as a gelding enormous power, and he will get better. The horsepulls amaze me so much I wished we had those, too. Hope Brenda did a good job as well 😁 Have a great and wonderful week all of you! -Chris

Hey Chris!👋 You got to be there and witness a horse pull last summer I remember! Sure wish I could have a chance to see Jim's horses, but I live down in Tennessee, so it's too far for me to go. Been meaning to ask how the new harness you got from Eli has worked for your horse? Eli definitely does quality workmanship. He's recently made new harnesses for Jim's colts, Duke and Earl too! Hope you are doing well!👍

Those sled shots are cool, Great job with exposure to the pulling sport Imagine the audience if a tenth of your viewers showed up to a pull

Ha ha, by the third pull Baron was ready to hop when he heard the hook drop! Awesome 1st outing. Those boys have ❤.

So cool!! They really did well! Yeayyyy Bill & Baron!! 💕

I think Baron really enjoyed himself!

I've been looking forward to this day for a couple years now!

Jim Great Job Bill And Baron Did Wonderfully and You Did Double Duty With Filming and Pulling a Great Day By This Time Next Year You're Going To Have The Winning Team Missed Brenda But Family Comes Before Having Fun With Jim LoL Us Lucky Enough To Have Grandkids Understand.The Wife And Enjoy Horse and Pony Pulls For Going on 40 Years So Thanks For Sharing This With Us Blessings And Please Be Safe✌️P.S.

Great job by a great team. Jim, I believe you deserve all of the credit for the success of the team. After all, it's you that trained them and conditioned them to be champions. Congratulations on a job well done!

Not taking anything away from you Jim but Bill trained a winner. Barron has seamed to have gotten Bills heart for pulling. Great Job Jim ,great video.

Looks like Barron is really enjoying himself!

The new harness looks very nice

We done to you all Baron done amazing job for his first horse pulling event 👏 great clip Jim you did a great job 👍

They doing great today

I’m speechless how well Baron & Bill pulled. Were they the lightest team pulling out of the five? It was hard to hear clearly in some parts but wow, great footage and a great time watching. Thanks for sharing 🐴🐴

Always love seeing a horse pull. Good job Baron & Bill.

Great job Jim👍 The team did fantastic you can definitely see Baron wants to pull an gets excited. Great video footage up an close great idea.

Great Job for first time with Baron,

Well done all. Love that u knew when to stop. Our view from the top of the weights was great.

Loved this horse pull! I feel sure that you are a proud Papa. Baron did well.

I love the camera on the boat Jim!

Thank you Jim for your efforts to record the pull by yourself. Turned out great. Baron and Bill pulled hard and minded well, Bill was even laying down some lub greese, ah ha, Baron did amazingly well, made it look easy and one would never guessed that was his 1st pull. I think you found a very good place to stop. Next time Baron will pull that stone boat home. Looking good. Thank you.
