great link.........wish there was an association for english riders. my 2 would look daft in western tack and I find it a bit uncomfortable:o

Im thinking of joining. Shay wont be doing any western shows as he goes buck buck buck when we try to do some simple work, so the saddletramp thing might sit us.
If they let me enter on Susie it would be great, as she would really kick butt in the trail classes.

aww whys he been bucking??
Susie would look so cute:p

He tells me hes a hacking horse and doesn't do poncy schooling:D
You know Shay, he doesn't do subtlety, its no thank you in a hedge with you:rolleyes:
Thankfully I haven't come off (they are more rodeo bronks than bucking), but hes a completely different horse when ridden outside and is very stressed when ridden in the field (especially when he sees a pole) so I decided not to put him through it and not school.

Mind you Susie bucked with me the other day after attempting a rollback, and Susies bucks are not to be messed with, back legs come over your head and she broke her girth once:eek:

i persume a horse rollback is were the horse/pony goes down on allfours and turns to left or right and the rider uselly can get away before horse or pony does or is uselly un succesfull

hmm no, not quite.
