Hi,
This is my first time to enter into the discussions at ridecamp (this
Internet stuff is still fairly new to me). I've enjoyed reading all the
different opinions on various subjects.
Anyway, I want to post a question regarding weight. On some of the rides
where weight is required (i.e. 165lb minimum) where is the best place to
put dead weight on your horse - the stirrups, cantle, pommel, where? My
friend is a FW & would need
to carry several extra pounds. Anyone with any options let me know.
Also, just to put my 2 cents in - I agree that our sport should not get too
complicated with too many rules. It's supposed to be "to finish is to
win"! Get the best horse you can - condition, condition, condition & ride,
really ride!

Thanks
