The Hunter Pace Results

Congratulations to everyone!

Jumping

The June pace day turned out to be another super riding day. Yet again, rain the night before, but the sun came out making for perfect riding weather. We had a great group of riders, as always, and some first timers, including some who traveled quite a ways(who we hope will return). Good reports on the jumps and trails and everybody left smiling. Even Miss Muddy Butt, who demonstrated a graceful 'HRS' (horse/rider separation)into a mud puddle!

We also were treated to a cowboy mounted shooting demonstration by Eric Stormer and Muldoon Macaroon. Eric and 'Mac', a 16 yr old Morgan, did two patterns for us, with nary a miss on the targets. They made galloping thru a complicated pattern and shooting balloons look easy. It was fun to watch and we appreciated the extra time and effort Eric and Erica put in, bringing the cones, and setting up. Randy did an admirable job of blowing up the balloons!

Our next pace is July 12, Rain or Shine, so we hope you'll join us. We look forward to seeing you all.

The results of the pace are listed below. Congratulations to our riders! We hope you all are having another great season!

The first pace of the season turned out to be a great riding day. The sun came out after a wet night, and the trails dried up nicely. Some of our riders took all of our jumps, which makes Randy very happy! He is already planning more and different jumps for the rest of the season, so look for some new challenges this year. It was great to see old friends as well as have some new riders join us, including another mother/daughter team.

Our next pace is June 21, Rain or Shine, so we hope you'll join us. Weather and babysitters permitting, we hope to have one of our teams also give a "Cowboy Mounted Shooting" demonstration in the afternoon, around 2:30pm, so plan to stay and see this new riding adventure. Who knows, it may be something you will want to get involved with!

The results of the pace are listed below. Congratulations to our riders! Here's hoping for another great season!
