Help from the horse people

Haha, that rocks that he had that much fun! We call that sit-a-buck where I'm from, and it was a very common 4-H game. Along with spoon and egg, the one where you have to have a cup of water in your mouth, and a few others. I always had the horse that didn't want to behave, so I ended up covered with water,egg, or losing my buck.

Lol, I remember one year I worked for weeks on using my weight to slow down Koda, shifting to get him to follow my rhythm, and we were doing SO good. Get in the class, and my brother and his mare go barreling past us, and it all went down the drain, haha.

LOL

I've never done alot of the fun classes, usually exhausted by the time they roll around at our shows, just did the odd ones with Manny. I think I need to do them more often

Although I remember one summer when we did our a fun day/show at the farm for the lesson kids etc and I "brilliantly" took Manny in the barrel racing, pole bending, flag race and keyhole. I had a bunch of horses to choose from, some that were well suited for that but thought he would like a break from training and showing and it would be good for him. It was hilarious, he acted like a maniac but we did have fun. I never would have the guessed the little park saddle Morgan could turn barrels the way he did lol

My brother's gamer is a morgan/arab/appy cross. That horse had zero balance when he started with her, but she is an AWESOME little barrel horse now. She would do anything for him anyway, lol. Anyone else gets on her, and she gallops full out while biting your toes. Yeah, figure that out!
