@Mezza1212123 I agree - better a wuss with a helmet than a paraplegic with a cool hat.

haha i love how on EVERY fricken horse vid theres always a bunch of retards who fight over which person is right and fight over something the rider does "wrong" when those retards dont even know how to ride, so everyone just shut up and keep you stupid comments to yourself, unless the rider is abusing the horse on PURPOSE or something like that then dont say: "oh her reins are too long" or "shes doing that wrong" WELL YOU PROBABLY NEVER EVEN TRIED IT RETARD! ITS HARD! NOT EVERYONE IS PERFECT!

cross counry, barrel racing, dressage, or reining yes we all ride diffrent but who doesn't? the point is we are all compete in these things because we love our horses we take good care of them as they do us and we love then just like they do to us so why do we have to fight? we are all good riders in our own events. we do what we do because we can and love to, as our horses. Horses dont care about what others think so why sould you? at the end of the day all that matters is you and your horse.

@gibbygirl89 Well it's most definitely not the same thing, but I know what you mean. In the end we're all equestrians, and I think that we need to respect each other's different skills and preferences, it's good to see that other people do too:)

@LucerodeCaballos Yea, I know what you mean about judges not being as fair because of not wearing a hat. At a few of out local rodeos, you HAVE to wear a cowboy hat or you can't compete. I think it's silly and dangerous; a helmet should be mandatory, not a western hat. That's just my opinion.

[LucerodeCaballos]

@MsXxxKittiexxx Sorry, but I find that to be a crappy excuse about not wearing helmets. You hang on really good? And if your horse decides to bolt and buck you off (this is possible with ANY horse, even push-buttons) and you hit a fence or tree (or the ground) with your head, you're gonna have one bad head injury. Heck, even if you're running her and she trips, you could go flying. It has nothing to do with whips and everything to do with common sense!

[LucerodeCaballos]

@MandiMal00 You're allowed to wear them, there are no rules against them in any Western event. But some judges may look down upon you if you don't wear a western hat in those events, like if a judge saw you were wearing rubber look-alike tall boots in an English class.
