My Basic Horse Intro I ride a lovely bay mare named Mark's Art(Twinkie) who is a OTTB,can be a maniac,but is relatively calm. Next we have a chestnut gelding named Dale,who I occasionally ride. I've been riding for three years now going onto my fourth year and have been doing rodeos for three years.I do ALOT of things in western. Pleasure Ranch Pleasure Trail Showmanship Ground Handling Barrels Poles Stakes Flags English Hunter Jumping Basic Dressage(collecting extending)
So to say the least I have some riding skills and a basic knowledge followed by some more in depth knowledge of the sport of Equestrisim. In speed events I usually do a fast canter/slow gallop. Hunters I do 70 cm. |

1/3/24 - Where can I find good quality tack at lower prices? Second hand is always a good option, check marketplace. Two horse tack has some nice biothane stuff for not super expensive. Also just watch for sales.
- Any secrets for making your horse spotless using just grooming tools (no water)? Yes actually, cactus cloth. I got mine of Amazon and it works so good, run vigorously over dry stains and then brush and repeat until they are gone.
- Do you have any tricks for calming show nerves? Dont wait super long of possible, the longer you stand by the ring and build anticipation the worse it will be, during riding if your nervous sing a little song, the abcs work really well to help you focus and remember to breathe
- I’m really struggling with putting on a tailbag—any tips or tricks to make it easier? braid the tail nice and tight starting from the bottom of the tail bone then fold the tail over and secure it if necessary, then put it into the sock like a pillow case, using your hands to help if necessary.
