@ilovehorsesbron Dude I totally agree with you,even though I ride western.I want to try English but it looks so hard,and I can't find the chance to.But don't you just hate it when people just go by stereotypes?!I've seen snobby girls.I remember when I first started rodeoing I didn't know what to do and this girl started cutting in front of me.There are snobby western riders and English riders,and there are nice western and english riders.
ppl, shut up. I ride western and English. I love them both. I jump, and contest and do pleasher too. shut the heck up. :) they both rock and they r both equaly hard. you are no better then other ppl just b cus of what stile you ride. :) thanx 4 reading this!! xo:)
english girls arent cowgirls. look up cowgirls on google and you wont find anything that has to do with english girls. english is for people that cant do anything more than their stupid canter, jump, and gallop. western sports are a lot faster, dangerous, and fun. english is as easy as taking a shit. simple as that.
I've rode western and English before but I half to say that western is better.all English does is jump over 5 foot fences horses do that all the time.barrels u fly out of the alley and turn 3 barrels as fast as u can I have hole in my leg from losing my stirrup and hit the barrel.western is fast,fun,and badass
english! :) stop saying were snobby we arent! (well most of us arent) i spend around 5 hours the morning of a show just doing hunter braids in his main, lol now thats love when its 3am :P
Ya'll are such girls. Ur annoying as hell. Neither is better. Stop acting like such bitches. I ride western and i think English looks cool and elegant and western looks amazing and badass. Alright? Just shut up.
People should stop fighting already! No discipline is harder or easier than another, just learn to accept each other's differences. A truly good rider can do both, for you western riders that call english snobby go try jumping 3ft+ jumps and you english riders that bash western go try galloping all out and whipping around the barrel at sharp turn, I do both and both are difficult we should stick together and stop bashing what you haven't tried
If your a true horse person you'll love both disciplines and know how to ride both maybe not at the top level on each but still know how to, you shouldn't be criticizing either, sure we all have our own preferences buy you are wrong if your gunna say that English riders are little princesses or western isn't as hard as English. That is just stupid, because there both equally as hard in there own ways , I cant believe some of you are acting like this!
I honestly love english. I used to ride western but soon became board with it because once I figured it out.... It became to easy. For me it is more of a challenge going over jumps then doing barrels, or poles, or western pleasure. But that is just my opinion, I do think western is more comfortable thought.
i dont think its about which is easier, its about which one is harder. and by far, english wins harder. i am english 4ever and always will be, but with english, there isnt as much as a risk. the only time i ride western is on trail rides... but i can do english trail rides, and i love those. i also think its about which one is more fun. i guess the trill of going over a jump over powers going around a barrel or pole, or sliding to a stop. go showjumping!!!!!! <3
Really people?All of these petty arguments about how ALL western riders are hillbillies (lazy, cruel, etc) or how English riders are princesses, wimps, whatever, are all dumb. Why cant we all just accept that both disciplines take a lot of effort and training to succeed in. Just because the bits are bigger in western doesn't mean it's a cruel sport. Just because English people have a stricter dress code, doesn't mean it's for wimps. Use your brains people! Abusive people are in all disciplines.
People need to just calm down! Everyone has their own opinion, and no one can truthfully judge the other till they have done both. I ride Western, but I have a lot of friends who ride English. It doesn't matter the style of how we ride, we are all brought together by the love of horses. Barrel racers go through a lot of falls, and many other things, but English riders also go through a lot. Everyone needs to calm down, and realized that whatever they are saying is their own personal opinions.
Would any of ya'll want to watch dressage,jumping or enventing that is like watching grass grow or would u like to watch the sport I do barrel racing the best sport?
@TheBarrelgirl99 eventing hast to do what you western riders could never do!!!! that is run 40mils tords a log as bis as a car and jump a corse of 4 foot fenses and if you nock 1 poll down that could put you in 1st or 5th AND tell are horse collect and dans and all of this takes years to master!!!!! so may be you should think 2's b4 calling my life sport boring!!!! so don't say anything!!!!
@TheBarrelgirl99 I'd like to see you try to jump even a crossrail course and do it, and I'd especially like to see you handle one of our horses. You probably wouldn't be able to even get it to go.
@TheBarrelgirl99 Not true. English is basically the same as western. I doubt you could handle a hot english jumping horse neither, so dont put other people down calling them "babies" I'm a western and english rider, and there is really no difference in how I act when sitting in a different saddle.
don't even say that stuff western riders there may be some hunter jumper riders like that but thats no reason to blame the entire sport of english!!!! i do eventing and we are just as bad ass! i dar you to ride my horse on a cross country corse, or dressage OR jumping corse!! id like to see how long you last!!!! look up eventing and see for your self!
i am a barrelracer and i have ran a 14.752 beat that english princesses!! i bet u english people couldnt ride my horse.us western people do run fast. u english people r the ones who r scared dressage,jumping whatever
@TheBarrelgirl99 you've probrably never even ridden english you dipshit why are you gunna even comment something like that there both equally as hard in there own ways and english riders go fast all the time as well still while jumping over a fence sometimes at 5foot high, now would you have the guts to do that? many people dont, i ride english but i respect western, and thats how you need to be not a little snobby western bitch
@babyboylevi and what makes you think you are?? i ride english and western does that meen im not a cowgirl. its takes just as much practice and work to ride english as it does western and english riders are just as good as western
@babyboylevi well... actually... if its a girl/boy who works on a farm and is tasked with duties ralating to the cows apon the farm... then technicly she/he would be a cowgirl/cowboy due to the fact that it was actually a job to do with the cows on an american range
GO horserideer627. Look at what us barrel racers do then look at the English do and im sorry but barrel racing wins i love what i do and my horse loves what we do even if we are way better in poles. <3Got to love them cowgirls.<3
@Rowedy12 i doubt barrel racing would win against jumping a course sometimes at 5 foot high with sometimes as many as 20 jumps, im not disrespecting western but saying that is totalllyyyyy wrong. there both equally hard in there own ways.
@ilovepreciousjim2 well you may be right one one thing and thats that they are hard in there own way. But barrel raceing is harder then jumping you go flying around a barrel vs jumping over a five foot fence wich horses do all the time sorry hun but barrel racing is harder
@Rowedy12 ha yeah right if a horse can jump 5ft thats absolutely amazing and a course of 15 to 20 of them?? theyll cost way more then your little barrel horse, and a whole hell of lot more people are gunna want that horse, then the barrel horse.
@ilovepreciousjim2 first of all dont refer to them as ''little barrel horses'' there horses too and are no different than your snobby jumper horses all horses can be stubborn and frusterating at times but really i would like to see you try barrel racing on a jumper the horse would prolly jump the effing barrel
@horseluvr63 when i said little i was not referring to them as being different then other horses, and wtf just cause a horse can jump means there snobby? wow ok, and your right i could not get on a jumper and barrel race it and have any chance of winning cause there not trained for it! just the same as you taking your barrel horse and try jumping a full course of at the smallest 3 foot course and win. Each horse is good at what they enjoy doing, just the same as riders, and each is EQUALLY hard!
@horseluvr63 um yeah you pretty much did you said "snobby jumping horse" so i think you needed to recheck what you wrote which i dont see how any horse could be snobby anyway, thats so stereotyping
@babyboylevi thats just some, but the majority of English riders are not like that they care for their horses and the sport just like western riders do
@horseluvr63 um yeah you pretty much did you said "snobby jumping horse" so i think you needed to recheck what you wrote which i dont see how any horse could be snobby anyway, thats so stereotyping
you really need to calm down i like both it is kind of buttholeish to say that English people only care about what there wearing. So you try jumping 4''
@horsesforever28 A) english riders use spurs too, at FEI dressage it is required to use spurs in the test. B) properly using a crop OR spurs causes no pain to the horse. They are training aides that encourage the horse. I only truly "whip" my horses when they're acting up and not listening. Nothing should ever really hurt a horse. C) English is not all fast. Neither is western all slow. Have you seen a proper hunter round? Or dressage test? They aren't fast, they're controlled and even in pace.
The only reason these girls like english is because they havent tried western....I also think western has more purpose...now i'm not saying english doesn't have any purpose but really when are you every going to need to piaffe in the wilderness??? I also think that it also depends on where you're located....like NY...you probably won't find to many western riders... And I think that the english riding girls are started out very young and a english saddle is easier to lift onto a horses back...
Ok first of all riding english doesnt make you a princess... each style is good i just perer english better its my style of riding..... btw im NOT a princess... :)
Honestly not all parts of the english world are snobby. I do eventing (Cross Country,Show Jumping, Dressage) and all of the people I see at most eventing shows are nice and care about there horses. (And how are english people the bitches if about 90% of these comments are western people being rude to english people. And I dont have anything aganist western people or there horses its just SOME of the peolpe can be rude.)
An english rider is no cowgirl, an english rider is a princess rider! I used to do english and got so sick of the bitchiness, cleaness and the perfectness!! English is boring and has very poor sportsmanship. I much prefur western coz gettin down n dirty is what I love.
@BarrelHorse25 I see many, MANY bitchy and unsportsmanlike western riders too. I'd like you to go to an eventing show. I have very rarely seen bitchy, mean riders there. Everyone helps everyone out and we're all out there together doing what we love.
@StormValleyStables ive been to many eventing shows because i used to do eventing and decided that it was too bitchy and all that crap. got into barrel racing and found it much better...
@BarrelHorse25 If you're a barrel racer you're not a cowgirl. You aren't a cowgirl unless you work with cows, that's what it means.
And I don't know where you came from, but that's only a small small sample of the English world. I ride English, and I've met so many people that are nice, and also we get dirty allll the time.
1st of all i thought both observations were great! I`m a Pro Barrel Racer and No not alot about English at all really but no different then the english knowing much about western.. some of the shots were good other then the bad western saddle the used in a pic other then a buckaroo saddle or barrel saddle.. And only western pleasure is slow besides those who choose to ride slow or are novice..Cause what i do is tuff and fast and requires Knowledge same as English.. Hince.. Nobody knows it all.
KNOCK IT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so sick of seeing all of theses fights! Pretty much all of these comments about "English people are prinssess and jerks" and "Western people go slow because they are to scared to go fast" are sterotypes! I ride english and I do eventing and hunter/jumper and last I checked I dont wear a crown or live in castle and Im a nice person! And I have sevral really good friends who ride western and Ive seen them ride and they go really fast!
@1999skippy I think ur absolutly right and i regret what i seid about english truth is i fell off english and swore never to ride english again so i take ever chance i get to hate on english.....i think ur doing the right thing sooo guys lets stop fighting and just love horses!!!!
lol i barrel race and i use to jump i LOVE both im starting my 16 year old ex english horse, now a barrel horse, on jumping. But as my best friend would say... "yall is all pussys. i dont need no fuckin saddle to hold me in place i can spin,slide stop,barrel race, pole bend, do drassage, and jump bareback. can u do that?" lmao i love her she was to lazy to carry saddles so she pretty much learned to ride bareback, and for about 8 years shes be rideing bareback only.(she is an AMAZING rider)
I LOVE both. u people who r bagging on Hunter GET A LIFE! we care more about are horses then cloths idiots. And u call us princesses? WE DONT HAVE GLITTER ON R CLOTHS!!!! hunter works much harder then western and the horses r more advanced. AND BTW you can be hunter and a cowgirls smarties!!!! AND for you people who r bagging on western GET A LIFE! because western in awesome 2! and western horses are so pretty!!!! so if you really love horses you wouldnt bag on anything with horses!
I do both. My barrel horse does both. It's really not as big of a deal that everyone thinks. I love both of them. Each discipline helps you with the other.
@zorroismyhorse were to scared? If you new ANYTHING you would no western and hunter have the same gaits. Walk, Trot (or jog), Canter (or lope), Gallop, hand gallop. Last time i checked Western doesnt jump. I do both so i can say that hunter is much harder.
@smileysyd20 OK I DONT NORMALLY JUMP INTO FIGHTS BUT THAT IS IT I CAN JUMP ANY DAY ID LIKE TO SEE YOU JUMP ON MY BARREL HORSE AND DO A BARREL PATTERN AT FULL SPEED SEE HOW THAT GOES FOR YA I CAN JUP IN A WESTERN SADDLE TOO AND I HAVE STUCK ON A KICKIN HARSE FIGHT BARE BACK SO DONT EVEN PULL THE NO BALANCE CARD ON ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@zorroismyhorse First of all i DO BARREL RACING AS I SAID IVE DONE BOTH. SECOND OF ALL I JUMP ON A 2 YEAR OLD STALLION 3RD OF ALL BEING ON A HORSE BAREBACK WHILE THEY WERE FIGHTING DOESNT MEAN UR A GOOD RIDER IT MEANS YOU WERE TO DUMB TO DISMOUNT THIRD OF ALL DID I EVER SAY WESTERN DOESNT HAVE BALANCE? NO! I DIDNT WESTERN NEED ALOT OF BALANCE TO BARREL RACE, SO YEAH I HAVE JUMPED WESTERN MANY TIMES BEFORE! end of convo.
@smileysyd20 ok ill end this convo if u humor me it wasnt a very long fight a cople kicks thats all but that day i went through hell he started bucking, got in a little fight and took off on me at a full gallop down a slender trail he spooked on the trail when ho took off and caught me off gaurd and i didnt fall off once and i went to ur channel and you seem a little young how old r u end of fight
I Ride WESTERN all the way on a horse named Tara i think what western is trying to say is that wester get more down in the dirt and dirty than english do and yall english riders wester saddles have a horn for a reason its not for balance its for the rope when they rope cattle so dont say english has better balance cuz we have just as much balance or more as you
I'm a COWGIRL !! My best friend rides English and she comes to my shows and dress like a Cowgirl and sometimes jumps on my horse and goes in a few Western classes!!
and not all dressage riders are "preppy Princesses" they are portraid that way and i find it rather rude because we can actually be counted dow for being untidy and dirty.
OK no offense to ayone but bolth disciplines are amazing i do jumping dressage barrel racing and pole bending all are wqually difficult and fun in there own way!!! riding is just fun whether english or western
@Twilightpony2 THAT IS A HUGE STERIO TYPE I RIDE ENGLISH AND I STILL MUCK OUT STALLS, RUN AROUND IN THE MUD, HAVE LOADS OF FUN OUTSIDE RAIN SNOW SLEET OR SHINE AND I KNOW A GIRL WHO RIDES WESTER THAT WOUNT GO OUT EVEN TO PET HE HORSE IF IT IS MUDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@horserider627 i ride english and we wear jodpers because the saddle is smaler and can pinch you and we wear show cloths just like western people do you guys have to wear fancy long sleave sirts an those huge ridculous belts!!!!! and english riders wear a shirt sometimes with a coat and boots! it dosnt matter what you wear we all ride even thouhght you may barrel race and i may jump and do dressage when it comes down to it we both ride horses!!!!!
@horserider627 were the princesses? we dont wear glitter on r cloths girl. western and english are both the best just in other ways.....if you dont like or try everything to do with horses...you arnt a true horse lover.
@horserider627 we arnt princesses i hunt fish and eat deer meat and im a GIRl! western is fine but its not my thing you like the feeling of going around a berral i like the feeling of flying right over the jumps with the horses and i really dont care what im wearing i just love bieng with horses i dont hate western im just saying it really hurts alot of us english riders feelings and force us to choose western so they can be the ones saying western is way better u have your opinion i have mine
@Ilovemodelhorses well said....you are the only one who has not called me a dumb ass or some other mean name.....srry if i a fended you and i am truly srrry. the only reason i said that was because i went to an english farm and obviously they didn't like western style of riding because i was told that wearing jeans to the barn was unexceptionable... so i really did not like english people so you can see my distaste......again srry if i a fended you please no hard feelings!
@horserider627 Dumbass, english riders are NOT "princesses" I've been riding both english and western for almost 8 years and I love both. Sure, english riders can be snobby, but half the western riders I know don't give a shit about their horses, and just care about showing off (which clearly apply's to you as well)
@MiniatureHorseLuva i actually open my eyes for the first time at a western event and thought about how right you r i saw: people whipping, smacking, over kicking w/ spurs, and many other cruel things! i feel srry about what i said! i did not mean to a fend you! srry
@horserider627 LOOK ASSHOLE ! Western is for lazy ass people who can't seem to put down the soda can nor dorito bag ! English is for smart , energetic and NICE people ... NOT for lazy HALF ASSES like you ! Now , little girl behind the computer screen , go riding for REAL , and try ENGLISH .... Because western is actaully falling off the face of the earth !!!
@WarriorCatHorseRock "Go ride for real" Why is it that you think western riding is not as real as English? You try and rope off a horse running it's fastest, or ride WP, it's not easy. I ride both English and western. I have respect all riders and their disciplines, no matter what saddle they are riding in. Lets not bash another persons passion, just because you don't like it. Keep your uneducated opinions to yourself.
western all the way...its the only way my horse will let me ride her (yes i know it sounds stupid but if you put an ap saddle on my mare she will try to get you off as quick as you put it on her) she loves cows, barrel racing, sporting and trail riding nothing else hahaha but i love her no matter what!!
In my opinion, both styles are great. They each have their own uniqueness and we shouldn't have to compare them. I may ride western but I think English doesn't look so bad. Great video BTW:)
both styles are great and special in thier own way. it all depends on the personal prefrence of the rider. i personal say western. not as stuffy ..lol.. i like the flow of western and the speed or barrel racing!!!
I love both Western and English riding. The Appaloosa- 1/4 Quarter Horse I had was trained Western pleasure when I got her. I trained her to do gymnica (games like barrels, up and back, cut back, poles, etc). She would place high in AHSA shows (open), and high in 4-H shows. I then trained her in English riding (Working Hunter and Dressage). I found those disciplines helped my horse to get better muscle tone and speed for gymnica classes. :)
@FunnyGirl644 Englishh is the exact same as western riding, we try our hardest in all our competitions and we get good results aswel okk, cuz then I could say that western riding was only there 4 ppl who didn't no how to ride horses properly. But it isn't so stop saying crap about my sport
1st of all there both really hard i love both but u western people shouldnt b bringin down these englsih poeple bc u dont know what they have to do to be good and u english people stop hatin on the western peeps bc i dont s c u takin a chance everytime u barrel race bc it takes alot a guts (same with jumping)
1st of all there both really hard i love both but u western people shouldnt b bringin down these englsih poeple bc u dont know what they have to do to be good and u english people stop hatin on the western peeps bc i dont s c u takin a chance everytime u barrel race bc it takes alot a guts (same with jumping)
Western is better.I ride western and its way funner then English.In Englesh you have to be perrfect.In Western all you have to do is do your best.Thats what i do when i show.:)
I dont get what the image at 1:51 has anything to do with english riding. For all we know that could be a western pleasure arabian playing in his paddock
I just thought what about bareback dont get me rong but I love western and english more western but the best time I have ever had was bareback with the people that love me my friends and my family=)
and puts so much pressure on the horses back. ok im done just needed to get that out there, every disipline is fine if you just ride ethically and to the best of your ability.
i know you just wanna run fast and have a good time....but DONT HOLD ON TO THE HORN, you;ll go much faster, trust me. just try it..dont get all mad, just try it. and if i ever see another gammer hit there horse on top of the head with a dogging bat, so help me god i will rip you off that horse so fast your head will spin! dont it. and you say we are mean to our horses....yeah sure. dressage people, dont jump in those saddles, come on that would be like jumping in a western saddle, its so deep
What The heck is your problem!? You would buy a gr8 horse and waste on english. WESTERN FREKIN RULES!!!!!!!!!!! Western+Horn = WINNING!!!!!!!!

@TheBarrelgirl99 Not true. English is basically the same as western. I doubt you could handle a hot english jumping horse neither, so dont put other people down calling them "babies" I'm a western and english rider, and there is really no difference in how I act when sitting in a different saddle.

@Rowedy12 i doubt barrel racing would win against jumping a course sometimes at 5 foot high with sometimes as many as 20 jumps, im not disrespecting western but saying that is totalllyyyyy wrong. there both equally hard in there own ways.
ilovepreciousjim2 1 month ago
@ilovepreciousjim2 well you may be right one one thing and thats that they are hard in there own way. But barrel raceing is harder then jumping you go flying around a barrel vs jumping over a five foot fence wich horses do all the time sorry hun but barrel racing is harder

@Rowedy12 ha yeah right if a horse can jump 5ft thats absolutely amazing and a course of 15 to 20 of them?? theyll cost way more then your little barrel horse, and a whole hell of lot more people are gunna want that horse, then the barrel horse.
ilovepreciousjim2 1 month ago
@ilovepreciousjim2 first of all dont refer to them as ''little barrel horses'' there horses too and are no different than your snobby jumper horses all horses can be stubborn and frusterating at times but really i would like to see you try barrel racing on a jumper the horse would prolly jump the effing barrel
horseluvr63 1 month ago 2
@horseluvr63 when i said little i was not referring to them as being different then other horses, and wtf just cause a horse can jump means there snobby? wow ok, and your right i could not get on a jumper and barrel race it and have any chance of winning cause there not trained for it! just the same as you taking your barrel horse and try jumping a full course of at the smallest 3 foot course and win. Each horse is good at what they enjoy doing, just the same as riders, and each is EQUALLY hard!

@horsesforever28 A) english riders use spurs too, at FEI dressage it is required to use spurs in the test. B) properly using a crop OR spurs causes no pain to the horse. They are training aides that encourage the horse. I only truly "whip" my horses when they're acting up and not listening. Nothing should ever really hurt a horse. C) English is not all fast. Neither is western all slow. Have you seen a proper hunter round? Or dressage test? They aren't fast, they're controlled and even in pace.

The only reason these girls like english is because they havent tried western....I also think western has more purpose...now i'm not saying english doesn't have any purpose but really when are you every going to need to piaffe in the wilderness??? I also think that it also depends on where you're located....like NY...you probably won't find to many western riders... And I think that the english riding girls are started out very young and a english saddle is easier to lift onto a horses back...

Honestly not all parts of the english world are snobby. I do eventing (Cross Country,Show Jumping, Dressage) and all of the people I see at most eventing shows are nice and care about there horses. (And how are english people the bitches if about 90% of these comments are western people being rude to english people. And I dont have anything aganist western people or there horses its just SOME of the peolpe can be rude.)

1st of all i thought both observations were great! I`m a Pro Barrel Racer and No not alot about English at all really but no different then the english knowing much about western.. some of the shots were good other then the bad western saddle the used in a pic other then a buckaroo saddle or barrel saddle.. And only western pleasure is slow besides those who choose to ride slow or are novice..Cause what i do is tuff and fast and requires Knowledge same as English.. Hince.. Nobody knows it all.

I love both Western and English riding. The Appaloosa- 1/4 Quarter Horse I had was trained Western pleasure when I got her. I trained her to do gymnica (games like barrels, up and back, cut back, poles, etc). She would place high in AHSA shows (open), and high in 4-H shows. I then trained her in English riding (Working Hunter and Dressage). I found those disciplines helped my horse to get better muscle tone and speed for gymnica classes. :)
