Sarah, Nike, and I went to our first barrel race ever!!! Nike did AMAZING, especially considering I yanked him out of the pasture. This was the first time he's been ever done this, he's very rarely even had a western saddle on.
Sarah has never ridden outside of my arena at my house, so this was a huge deal for her.
But by the time i got my turn on Nike, he was SO tired! I've never done this before, either, so the only thing that went right was the lead change, lol! HUGE wide turns, but that's ok.
Song is Life's What You Make It by Hannah Montana...not my choice in music, but Sarah likes it.

  • She's riding in that bridle because Nike has far too soft a mouth for a western bit (or at least, any of the western bits I own). He's an english horse, he's very rarely ridden western. And she has no control because she's a beginner rider. And I know I did a bad job, it was a first time. As in, we'd never practiced or anything.

  • ok if this is you ,you are too young for youtube

  • If you read, I'm the second rider...

    And I'm 21, so I'm pretty sure I can be on youtube.

    The first girl is my cousin, Sarah, who was...oh I don't know how old she was at this point, lol.

  • omgosh!!! this is in vivian right???

  • Yes it is! I take it you've been there?

  • She doesn't need to be afraid to pull on the reins

  • check out my videos very nice video :))))) i love barrel racing

  • Then she will have a faster time

  • The older girl needs to get a little closer to the barrels them

  • The little one needs some shorter stirrups and more practice, but for an Arabian he's is quite the calm horse. Bravo.

  • Good job! :) im training for my first barrel race which will be on the 20th. You look like your having so much fun! Cant wait till its my turn to go into the arena! :)))

  • @haleyaustin0898 I know. I've been barrel racing for about 3 years maybe 4. And if that girl wants the barrel racing ride of her life she ain't gonna wanna ride an arab. That girl needs a quarter horse. She won't know what to think! They are amazing horses and really great at barrels

    -GOOD JOB GIRL!

  • @haleyaustin0898 Thanks for the comments! Yes, he's an Arab, a 1993 model ;)

  • she is doing awsome!! keep up the good work!

  • As long as you both had fun, that's all that matters. I took my TWH pleasure horse in a barrel class once and although he cantered, he was still slower than a pony who trotted the pattern! Didn't matter - we had some laughs.
