Re: [RC] Mounting - jen

Tracy, good idea.  Thanks again.  I'll let you know how it goes once I get it built, but I will definitely need at least two rings two accomodate my three horses.  I just brought home my newest horse from the trainer.  He is 15h and by far the easiest to mount.  He is great.  We are going camping this weekend with a friend and her horse.  I can't wait to see how he does with that.  So far he has taken Everything in stride.  He is a TW/QH cross and has the best attitude ever.  I'll keep ya posted.

Jen,
You're welcome and good luck.  Something I thought of while taking the pictures....and later went ahead and did it, was to tie several rings into the rope that will accomodate my different height horses. Since the rings lay flat they don't rub or anything and then there's no adjusting between horses.
