THINGS TO PONDER...


When do you need to "whoa" so you DON'T go over the back log of the entry chute?

How large will your trot curves need to be to keep from breaking gait or hitting a cone?

This pattern is "do-able" with horses or riders that are not specialists at trail.  The distance between the back through poles and trot through cones is 4'.  The back through "hole" is 8'.  The pattern would be "toughened up" by having tighter obstacles and more specific manuevers.

The "get ticket" places are for a drawing for an afghan.  You don't need to get a ribbon to be a winner at our fair!
