  • My horse was like that about riders. He knew what is was supposed to do without any prompting.

    I loved to run bareback on him.

    Yep, you could've done this, we just never did.

    And I agree about the helmet.

    But I didn't like the steer riding thing at all... however, I"m glad how it turned out.

    If anyone reads these posts...remember I said that Katie isn't afraid to say "No" to me, along with unafraid to say anything else? I rest my case!

  • I don't know, I never liked being out of control on a horse... and when you're jumping off while they are moving you are out of control for a bit. I'm super impressed with Al.. already liked the girl but now I just might have to bow down for her. lol

  • Wayne has a grimace on his face the whole way too... starting out you can't see his teeth, but as things got bad you see them until it's done.

    She wasn't out of control, she knew what was happening, & trusted her horse

    Daughter dear, he isn't grimacing, he has a huge smile on his proud face! He knew she would be fine. No doubt

  • Your description for each picture really helps you realize what the horse and rider are thinking at the time. Great story!

    Ardie, that is my point. We work hard to understand our horses, and to share what we can with kids/others. There are horses with faster times, but being yanked on or never rewarded with "loose" reins, by a trusting, giving rider.
