The FreeRepublic Saddle Club thread! - Thread SIX
See our "who's who" page! ^

*New* The FreeRepublic Saddle Club - Who's Who *pics*

This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.

I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts… look for it there and wake the thread up!

I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in…. There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics… land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news…. Legislation that might affect horse owners.

So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.

Do you have to replant it, or is it like strawberries?

Hehe. Your cavalry saddle sounds neat. The most cofortable saddle that I ever rode in was a dressage saddle. Have you ever ridden in an australian stock saddle?

I don't have a problem with my butt or my legs so much as my lower back. I don't know if it's because of the terrain that we go over or what, but in the ring I never have a problem.

We have hawks all over the place because my trainer hunts with them, and those that she releases stick around.

I can understand the horse feeling the butt bones bareback, but in a saddle, that is amazing. Mabe I can gt away with it because I weigh 100 pounds.
Heh are you a jockey? I ask because I had a jockey friend who pressured me for a long time to get out on the track. I'm about 5 feet with shoes on and weigh 100 pounds soaking wet. What was really embarassing was that the jockey was about an inch taller than I am. Hehehe. :-)
