Westernaires is a precision mounted drill riding group, this blog was used to record my time at Westernaires. I leased a 21 year old quarter horse draft mix named Bo. Prior I rented and rode Stretch, Chey, and GoldDust. My teams were T1, J1 (Top Junior),White Star (Captain), Colorado Stampede (Captain), Nighthorse Rangers, Royal Rangers, Red Liberty, Red Ropes, White Vaulting, White Batons, Jr. Instructor, and Jr. Wrangler. I now ride on the Evergreen Drill Team since I graduated in 2017

Weeding and Specialties
Today went really well. I had baton weeding at 8 and class right after. Both went well and double batons extended our drill a bit so that's fun. Then my instructor met up with us and put our officer bars on. Man it felt good to have my captain bars back on my collar. Then JI training went well. We reviewed for our written test in two weeks so that helped a ton. Vaulting and rope weeding conflicted so I only had to do vaulting. After I ran to ropes. I got to work one on one with the guy who made my Texas skip rope and I got lot closer! It's really coming together. I also worked on some new butterfly tricks. When ropes was dismissed I had to book it to vaulting and guess who we had :( REBEL. Nooooo. We practiced for heritage we changed up our exit slightly and practiced two drills without the Crimson girls and I rode trick for those and my partner rode trick for the no Royal drills. Overall they went pretty well. I'm super sore and tricks were awful because rebel is so bouncy. I pray we don't have him for show. Then we u saddled and that was my day. Blue Liberty was cancelled due to Precisionettes shows in Kansas
