Thanks, BuckarooMan!

Thank you. Very interesting. I am riding my horses in the hackamore. Guess I'll keep on doing that for awhile yet.

Thanks, Clay. Glad you enjoyed it.

These training techniques did not develop in California. They developed in central Mexico. From there they spread to all Mexico not just California which was part of Spain and Mexico.

The truth has been told This wrongly called “California vaquero way” are not Californian, they are Mexican. It is absurd to say they are Californian when the horsemanship and cattle handling techniques moved up north from Mexico, they are Mexican in fact. To say they are Californian is so absurd like to say that number 4 is before number 1. These same “California” techniques are used in the state of Jalisco and many other states in Mexico, far from Alta California.

Nice interview a lot of good info.

Thanks, Matt!

Some traditions are best left to the dust of time. Going from a hackamore to spade bit is one of them.

@@raydonpengilly3725 That is because people are not putting the horse first. Money drives the industry and horses suffer the consequences. Think of what the horse has done for this country. We owe the horse a huge debt of gratitude. Not in talk but in actions. Let's make their lives as best as we can make them.

The “California” style of vaquero horsemanship is no other than the Mexican style of horsemanship whether white people like it or not. If white people like it or not that’s irrelevant, they can cry about it and say whatever lie or misinformation they want. After all saying a lie many times does not make it become true it would just be a repeated lie. Every time there is a white man saying the “California style of horsemanship or vaquero” is just a person that is still bitter and sour, has not matured enough to say the truth and recognize that in fact it is the Mexican style of horsemanship and cattle handling ways. But until the truth is being recognized and things are acknowledged and credit is given to where it is due there would be people calling out what is not correct.
