Here you go…
Go easy on the comments. Honestly I’ve been on my horse about 10 times since I’ve been here. Ridiculous.
If y’all could arrange about 10 days of rain-free weather, I’d sure appreciate it!

I probably don’t know what the heck I’m looking at, but I thought that was awesome!
You looked Fast! Good job especially since there has been so little time to practice with the wet weather.
I can’t wait to see when y’all get to get in some good riding days cause I can see you are working hard on it and when you two get that much needed riding time and are in sync, you are gonna rock the races:)
Thanks, Mandie!
Only if that stupid weather would behave…… LOL~ You tried
i like his first barrel, but like you said unless you have flippers you arent doing any good schooling on any of them. benz thinks she is a pasture ornament. he needs work on his third. but hey if you have 2 good barrels out of the run and you didnt knock any over or fall off your doing pretty good compared to some lol
Heck! I think you look pretty danged good out there … the important part is that you’re getting out and competing and that’s going to pay off in spades. Keep it up!
Thanks for sharing your runs!! (I can’t WAIT until I start hauling Sug!) Gump can run!
Gump is the fastest horse I’ve ever thrown a leg over. He was bred on our ranch, started as a 2yo by a really handy natural horseman (my cowboy) and then was sold to a cousin who match-raced him for 9 years. We were able to get get him back 5 years ago and my Cowboy spent the first three years just teaching him to walk again. Now we can walk in and out of the alley, works in an O-ring snaffle and he is nearly as quiet as a church mouse. When he figures it all out, he’s gonna be tough to beat, I think!
Awesome – he’s fighting you at times though isn’t he. Some of the turns you could see he was getting his rear end under him, but the others he’s not pushing from behind to swing himself around. Like you said really hard when you can’t practice.
I can talk, I couldn’t ride as well as that. But then I own a OTTTB & only for 3 months so a long way to go yet.
on the first video his 1st barrel looked great! Looks like turning to the left isn’t his strong point but like others have said, you aren’t knocking anything and his speed will help him with some good times! Have you ever ran him to the left first? I thought he was a younger horse! He’s 16? (Did i do that math right? lol)
nice runs
ok ill see what i can do about the weather
hey God arrange 10 days of rainfree weather now
