Re: [RC] [AERCMembersForum] Weight Divisions - Lucie Hess

An interesting idea, Joe...  Here's a comparison:

NATRC has only 2 weight divisions, Lightweight and
Heavyweight.  Lightweight is 100 pounds to 189 pounds
and Heavyweight is 190 and above.  (with all tack)
Note that lightweight riders have to weigh at least
100 pounds, so some folks do have to use a "heavier"
saddle or carry some weight. 

NATRC does allow folks that are on the border of
heavyweight to ride lightweight, but it not the other
way around.  (So if you are heavier than 189 pounds
and you want to ride lightweight you can.)  It just
means your horse might be at a disadvantage.  

Personally, I don't mind 2 weight divisions, but I bet
you'll get some interesting coments.
