If you are asking about training a horse to stand still while tying you should never tie a horse up tightly. To begin with the young horse should be taught to stand still while a human holds the rope, afterward you can simply loop it through a tie ring. If the horse pulls back it learns it will not hurt itself due to the slack and be less afraid of being tied. As the horse progresses, you can and should teach it to stand tied with the rope fastened into a quick release knot. Tying a horse up tight to anything can result in the horse destroying the object in an attempt to get away, the horse pulling or injuring muscles in it's neck or back, or even the horse breaking it's neck.
