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

Great Saturday! 8/29
Sorry for the delay! I've been really busy. My Saturday started out with Colorado Stampede. I got Cheyenne #80! I was super excited because I'd never ridden her and she has a smooth trot. Which is great because we are working on standard drill. She was amazing for the ride! She did really well. I'm not calling Standard however :( Kind of sad but excited to ride a new position. I rode 1-6 and 2-6 so I have to build on the star weirdly. Then we played catch up in 8's and Cheyenne took off and kept up! Until she decided she was done and planted the breaks. Then I raced to get a horse for J2 and I GOT ROLO!!!!!! OMG I was so excited :) I think I was the first White Divison JI to ride him. He is still learning how to circle but listened so well. I watched Precisionettes and headed to my JI meeting at 12. They announced Top 10. I'm hoping to make it on there this year since I wasn't eligible this time. My last activity was JI at 2 for J7. I rode TomCat! I love that little boy. He does start bucking when you lope but nothing I couldn't handle. I really would like to be assigned to him next year except he doesn't like to lead. JI was pretty boring to day because they were doing equitation testing. Then I unsaddled TomCat and put him away. I was super tired by the end. I also bought my Jr. Wrangler and Jr. Instructor patches, now my blouse is complete!

ReplyDeleteI knew about Precisionettes but I wasn't sure about Royal
