Pegususmom that's the description of the timing logistic I was looking for, thanks!

Excellent info, keep it coming!

Tle - sorry I didn't mean the formula, I meant the actual process to get the distance. Is everyone still using a measuring wheel or is there another good way? I'm...

So I want to offer a low key, inexpensive and fun schooling level horse trials but I have some questions about organizing it all. I have run lots of horse shows before, but never a full three phase...

Would you wear brown dress boots hunting? I always thought it was traditionally brown field boots, black dress boots, but I seem to see a lot of brown dress boots and I never know what to make of...

What is with brown dress boots? Does anyone wear these regularly?

If you decide to do email you should look into MailChimp, it offers basic platforms and makes it easy to dress content up into something very appealing. If you're going to do online just be aware...

Hmm, if I were you I think I'd go custom, that or find a nice traditional hunt bridle that fits nicely and have it altered to either pad or do a cut out at the poll.

Very pretty creature, and good...

hmm, along the theme of interesting to non-hunters, I'd say exercises that any horse person could do like riding with a group in a line, and the last person speeds up and passes all the others to...

Is she over-fit? Often eventers are hyper-aware of fitness and conditioning, which is great, but not necessary for a fox hunter just starting out. I'd sooner take an unfit horse and retire early...

I bought a waterford D today and a myler knock off, a D w slots and a mouth piece that is about the thickness of a corkscrew but feels a bit more like twisted wire. It is jointed but has the shaped...

She's not itching, scratching, biting or stomping and there is no hair loss, redness, heat or inflammation. As the old skin flakes off, her legs look more and more normal all the time. Do you...

So I know these things tend to get different names in different places, but I'm talking about an infestation of mites that attack the feathered areas of the lower legs - why I know it to be called...

This is when you'd appreciate an agile spooking horse! I'd want outta there asap! Wonder if it was dumb luck or if the buck was actually gunning for the horse?

Ok whether or not you agree with the clothing on the rider in the first video, she is working on trick rider/vaulting moves, and doing a decent job. She performed a pretty impressive mount after...

I call it 'drunken sailor' and in green horses, it is very common. Usually at any gait, not just walk. If he was only trained on the rail, then he is just behaving in normal 'green horse' fashion. ...

Well since you suggested the 'Bless your heart' approach, what about a response to her comments,..

"Well thanks for reading and bless your heart, I didn't realize you knew everything!" ;) hehe

Wow, I didn't read all the blog posts, just skimmed a few, but your friend should lay off the farmer a little bit. First of all, he didn't shoot the pony on sight, and he did invest in giving it...

I'm waiting for someone to point out the pair that will fit me like a charm and end up selling for $100-150!

Jumping wire, wow, I definitely didn't realize you were from NZ when I first read your response! I read some of Foster's chronicles of hare hunting there, he was talking about jumping the regular...

Just saw these while trolling ebay this am, looks like they'll be a great deal for someone with smaller calfs than me!
...

Try riding bareback more often. A lot of what we require is more control, not necessarily more strength, so situps or pilates won't help until you learn how to control everything. More strength...

I don't worry so much about jumping, I figure any horse can drag its butt over a few coops each hunt, even if it isn't all that skilled at it. I look for something that doesn't react to stimulus,...

I've seen horses whose jowels have swollen due to high sugar levels in the grass. Now I've seen it in spring and summer, usually after a dry spell then a rain when the sugar's spike. I've never...

Is it bad that my first reaction when I read "where do I find a nice TB hunter prospect" was "the 1980s"?!

I think the shows will shrink also, but I think you'll see more local shows, barn shows, and more events that allow socialization but are way cheaper and more accessible than shows. I think you'll...
