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

One week closer to normalcy!
Friday night was Royal and I got to ride Snookie! I was excited to have a calmer horse for once lol :) She was great for grooming. She has a really small Mustang brand. Her stirrups just barely fit me though so that was a bit of a challenge. Warm ups went well and we got our first drill lined up. I was 4-6. One of my teammates did get bucked off of TazToo. She was able to walk out of the arena so I think she will be ok. I am riding outside of propeller for the Friday Show and 4-1 for the Saturday show for estes :) I am really pleased with my positions for sure. Our drills were all under 6 minutes except for one so we are in a good spot! We have one more friday night ride on rental horses before we go to wednesday nights and owners can come back! I am so ready! On saturday all I had was ropes and it was super hot. We practiced our drill and did some specialties and called it good. Then I watched Crimson ride and left. I felt weird being there for such a short period of time.
