IME, it's normal to prorate it -- But, when I moved into my current barn with 3 days remaining in the month my BO just waived it --

I'd start with the trainer who loved her -- See if they're willing to take her on as a sales project or if they offer any other options -- My bet is that sales barns wouldn't take her on the cuff,...

I can't recall any GPA or CO ads that emphasize safety --

I saw safety info on the Pegasus website -- Like the others, they mention their helmets are certified -- They also say their helmets come...

Sebastian's in Collegeville used to have a number of autistic riders when I volunteered there (many years ago) -- http://www.sebastianriding.org/Default_original.htm --

He's on the schedule for PA but not MD this year --

I've done it when I was saddle shopping -- I think it saved me a lot of time --

Until recently, I would have said no way -- But, these days I use my tendonitis-prone elbows as an excuse to avoid all sorts of stuff -- I haven't cleaned my saddle in 2 months, and am riding in a...

I'm not familiar with any situations where there's a 3-way split, but 50-50 is pretty common when the instructor works for the BO and uses BO's horses --

But, it sounds like you are already...

ROTFLOL -- Really, what was that about? That article left me scratching my head --

I suspect you meant UHJA, not USHJA --

You can order it from WalMart online and pick it up at a local store for $25 -- http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=460688 --

Thanks for giving me a shopping fix vicariously -- This post got me browsing Rick's site -- Only looked through the first 3 pages, but found a couple of candidates --

USEF added an English Pleasure section to the rulebook this year -- http://www.usef.org/documents/ruleBook/2010/11-EP.pdf --

In my area, the specs for pleasure hunters vary -- I've seen pleasure...

It doesn't ask about peeps :(

Your instinct to buy used is a good one -- Saddles take a while to break in especially if you're only riding in lessons once or twice a week -- Plus you stand a good chance of getting your investment...

Although my trainer heads south, I'm very fortunate that my BO (trainer's coach) stays north for most of the winter -- BO will give me tips if he sees me riding, and his wife gives great lessons --...

I finally framed a picture of my youngster showing at one of our bigger local shows last summer -- Funny thing is they used the same courses as the previous year, and the best shots of us both years...

I've been on the comittee for a few clinics sponsored by my GMO --

They were fundraisers, but the clinics themselves pretty much just broke even -- It was the silent auctions we held in...

Rick's sent me a check when my saddle sold, not a store credit -- This was about 4 years ago -- I think they had a cutoff above which they would pay you by check rather than in store credit --

When I started my mare back under saddle after what everyone thought was a career ending injury, she started pulling me to the jumps -- After I'd stopped her attempts several days in a row, I decided...

Does the contract say board is $X/day or $Y/month? -- If there's nothing indicating you can pay by the day, I wouldn't assume that's acceptable --

The only barn I've ever boarded at where the BO...

If you want to name your price for your Butet, consider consigning it with Rick's (or another shop) -- They take 20% on the sale of consignment saddles, but you'll have to wait until it sells to get...

It couldn't hurt to send an e-mail to TOTD asking for a refund since the item was not as you expected -- But, I'm assuming the item description said nothing about tail/leg straps, so I wouldn't...

Read the prize list, but most shows that accept faxed entries don't expect you to send a check -- If there's space on the entry form for credit card info, that's expected if you're not sending a...

You've gotten some great suggested reading thus far -- I haven't seen it, but I know that Jimmy Wofford and Doug Payne recently came out with a DVD -- I think it's called _The Rider's Eye_ and is...
