She might have lost control for whatever seconds but quickly regained control. It happens to ALL of us - anyone who rides doesn't need to be told that. If the horse took control from the rider -...

I saw the video and don't remember any yanking. If the rider was yanking I would think the horse's head and neck position (ie, going straight up, inverting, et al) would have been a huge indicator...

Indoors aren't really important to me but if you are going to give up one thing then the indoor would be it (in my book). Looks like they are in Wellington during the winter anymore as most trainers...

My vote is for Hunter's Moon! It's only 28 miles from the city and the place is gorgeous with a top trainer and MILES of gorgeous trails. How could you go wrong?

I've taken my 2 year old colt on a few handwalks. My daughter will ride her pony and I'll walk beside her. I live on 400 acres so our walks are real walks! It's a good way to teach the colt to go...

I second CARE CREDIT! They are your friend! They pay the vet the whole amount and you pick your terms - INTEREST FREE! I had a 1400 vet bill - they paid it and I paid them off in 2 months (they...

Confirmed chestnut peeler here - my horses' chestnuts never get to that point of growing thick as I constantly peeling them right off! Eye boogers gross me out til no end! I never use my bare hands...

Wait - Level 3 is jumping your horse 3' bareback with no bridle? How many Parellites have seriously injured or killed themselves at this level? That's what I wanna know!

Since I am exhausted from work I just skimmed your post and looked at the video - all I can say is beuatiful horse - your daughter is gorgeous and looks good on that horse and if you want to learn...

AWW Change it back to "bail" the story was so much more exciting when you used that term!

Some people just have to shove their large tatas into "conversations" and stir the pot.

Barnfairy -...

Maybe your mom is scared that you and/or your daughter is going to get hurt on (or handling) a horse?

I know it's hard (believe me I KNOW) but the best advice I can give you is to ignore your...

Clearly noone on this thread can see exactly what this woman was trying to do to this horse! Confuse and frighten the animal! What is so hard about seeing her try to do that? Since the horse was not...

I would do Millbrook. The stadium is held in the huge sand ring - you should have no problem. Fitch's stadium is roped off and the spectator's tent is on one side and on the other side are the...

Did anyone mention the article Buck Davidson wrote for COTH? He seems to highly endorse this vest and states he bought one for his GF and his dad. Claims it saved him from going to the hospital...

Fitch's is fun and they have a great course BUT Millbrook is absolutely gorgeous - wide open land, beautiful vistas and the xc is excellent and very gallopy. With Millbrook you don't feel all...

Good for both of you. Exercise is the elixir of life. It will refocus all the negativity in your life and will also make you healthier mentally and emotionally. I hope you become as addicted to...

Redears - my apologies. Kudos to you! You are on the right path to being a better person and a better rider. Your mare is very pretty. I looked around youtube and saw some other vids of your...

Lex - lmao! Maybe a beer with that pizza will help ya ponder what you saw a bit more thoroughly!

Lex you have a PM

egontoast - that can be true of a few of the people who posted their rounds on this thread.

Really? I don't know that poster's history on the internet. If what you say is true then she really needs to CLUE up - but then again so do a lot of people in the horse world.

Is this abusive...

Katarine - okay stop making me laugh!

You know what? Let's go to the OTHER side of the spectrum. I knew a woman who was so disgustingly thin (she was 6ft tall too) that it often made me SICK to see her ride. I thought "if she falls or...

Makes a bit of difference to the horse that she is riding at a lower level (thank goodness) smaller jumips - shorter xc distance to carry her around. Her riding was much more abusive than her...

I just read your post JSwan and I have to say that I have always wanted a huge rear - I want people to look at my butt and think that but it will never be unfortunately.

My sister - the more she...
