hey...this is going to be my first year competiong in keyhole...what would be a good time for 4h devition...the first time we clocked her at 13.1...but this was our first time being alowed to go that fast since her colic surgery...so we have some musel to get back to get the stop-spin-go down after the poles...lol...to make it better our normal event is dressage...which for a paint she's really good at...well let me know if you know whats a good time...thanks
well, I think times vary since there's no set number of feet that has to be between the starting line and the hole. So, around here a good time is right around a low 8 second time. But that's a good, perfect run. Average around here is about a 9-10 second run.
In key hole how big is the box you stop and turn him around in?
I have a rather high strung barrel horse and have been wanting to try some different events with him to get his mind on somthing other than barrel racing.
yep, atleast in our district. I don't know about other places... but I know they allow kids to qualify two at District competition, but everyone's only allowed one at states. So they just give everyone the chance to have a back-up. :) Some kids actually qualify one pleasure horse and one speed horse and then come states they decide if they want to do pleasure or speed.
omg it looks so beautiful there <3
