Oh, Ok thanks. A friend of mine is the one that told me it meant something differen. I didn't know.

Her fence work was what I liked, and that it was all done slow and easy. Around here you find very few that do the slow work, it's always just peddle to the metal. That is why, I've always thought there are so many crazy barrel horses around here. I also liked that "funnel barrel" exercise. I'll need more barrels here to do it tho:)

You know what, I think the barrel racers that are on a more professional level do the slow work. When my next door neighbor is working her barrel horses, it's always walk/trot/lope stuff. I've never seen her go faster than an easy lope when she's exercising her horses. When I was on the high school rodeo team, it was always pedal to the metal. We were just dumb kids.

Every now and then when I'm talking to her, she'll mention a friend named Josey.

I liked the fence work and the circles. I am a dressage rider so I appreciated her instruction on getting your horse off the forehand and using the hind end correctly.
