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

1/2 Day of Specialities
Last night I went to grooming to help teach the new T1/9 kids. I got two T9s and I picked Sally as our horse. Both of them did really well. Then this morning I was back to help again. We got them out on time so yay!!! I ran to ropes and we just worked on specialties. Then I got Cisco for my JI at 9. We walked the entire class so Cisco got REAL impatient. I had an hour before Liberty so I signed out my horse and I had Skeeter. He was on the rail so I unsaddled him and watched precisionettes. Skeeter was really good for Liberty he just has a lot of energy and doesn't respond to the wire very well. He is a lot more leg cue. I didn't take the bridle off but I didn't use it. It was more to keep skeeter from going totally crazy. We worked on hopscotch jumps were we have two in a row. It took a few tries to get the timing down but it was super fun when I did! Skeeter only dodged one jump and then he was fine. I had to miss batons again for Liberty. I had to leave right after for family so I missed vaulting. I was pretty bummed but oh well :( Liberty move ups are getting turned in next ride so two weeks. So we won't know until the first week of October or so.
