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

First Official Red Liberty Ride!!!!
THE DAY WAS FINALLY HERE OMG!!!!!!!! I was so excited to get to go back into the class and actually be a member of the team. I got the email with the diagrams and nearly died of excitement. Getting to actually ride the drill was phenomenal. We are riding the drills with 9 fours. 1-8 are team and 9th is points. I rode 3-8 twice and 3-9 once. Reno definitely needs spurs just for some added speed so I will remember that for next week. Fours 1-4 are the main team spots 5/6 are secondary team spots, and 7/8 are like a team point combo mix so I'm pretty happy with my positions, I know I won't get the really good spots since I'm new. Then I had a walkthrough at 12 and was 4-6, 4-8, 1-1, and 2-7. I LOVED my spots. The ride went really well and I rode a horse named Radar because September was unavailable. He was a ton of fun and I really liked him!
