Oh I know it is expensive, that is why I pay the fee no complaints. My trainer is pretty damn cheap considering how much goes into coaching all these kids at the shows, managing her employees, and driving 3-4 trailers there. It is only 80 of more than 2 go. But she makes enough at the shows we all go to to offer that price. I split fees with the other girl I am sharing the horse I show with, minus the entry fees of course. I then add up what I have left and how many classes I can enter based off that. So, the less I pay in hauling the more classes I can enter and the more points I get!
Sting, am happy with what IÂ’ve managed and worked for. Not an elite member of the equestrian world, but proud of what I have built. ItÂ’s hard work when doing it for yourself and not starting out with heaps of family money to back you.
Totally understand that some folks have health issues that prevent certain activities. All I am saying is that for healthy horses and riders, that take time to properly condition, 90*s shouldnÂ’t be an issue 🤷🏼♀️
Lol Buckeye, yes a compliment indeed, you seem incredibly accomplished and should be proud! Heat is hard, i know. You seem to have a beautiful life and thats super special!
We just do what works best 🤷♀️ kinda expensive for me to pay the full hauling fee across the state to the night shows. With other people going I only pay 80, for both the haul and coaching at show. For the dressage shows we may attempt doing, I am paying 100 base fee for hauling and coaching and then it will go up based on how far the show is. But it will just be and my instructor showing. I can do that for dressage shows and maybe a night show or two. But for every show? That would add up. So I go with my stable more than just on my own.
Riding in the evening works fine for me. Eliminates the factor of direct hot sun. Again, with attention to fitness levels and conditioning , no problems. *shrugs* Been doing summers from age 10-63 and never had a heat related issue. I pay very close attention to my horsesÂ’ vital signs, and students always learn the same.
Well, parents at shows here are fine with late nights. Most smaller local shows here start at 6 pm and go well into the night. Lots of gaited horse shows, full of kids.
I only go to them because my son in law helps his mom and aunt at them. Not my type of show, but when free we go hang out and enjoy the evening. But the kids are there all night too.
Guess it is just different strokes for different folks and areas.
Sure itÂ’s hot. Have yet to witness anyone or a horse actually collapse.
My only thing with heat is my blood sugar STRUGGLES to regulate. I have to check hourly while doing work in the heat and take breaks as it does a jump rope situation then back to work
