Favorite fly spray
Ultra Shield EX by Absorbine! It has a very strong smell but I'm guessing that's why it works so well ??
what are the main differences between western and english riding aside from the tack? i want to try western but im not sure what to expect other than what ive seen on TV like heartland and stuff when they ride western
I don't know a whole lot about western riding but the principles are the same as English. You still want to keep your heels down and a straight line from shoulder-hip-heel. Also most western horses are ridden by direct rein aids (same as english) and can go in a plain snaffle, depending on the horse of course. Obviously you can get a lot more technical if you focus on a specific discipline like reining but if you're just wanting to trail ride and do basic walk trot and canter there aren't many huge differences.
Are you guys bored of rumour already
Nope, why do you think that?
Why don't you like the changeable gullet?
They're just not as well made or solid as a regular saddle. And I'm assuming probably not as balanced but I've never ridden in one!
OMG YASSSS #EQUESTRIANPROBLEMS
???
she is a really good youtuber you should check her out
Oh yeah I think I have watched one of her tack hauls before, and she was crying because she couldn't go pick her package up from the post office ? first world problems ?
Don't think I've watched any of their videos before!
What would you most like to do if money were no object?
Buy a horse farm, and mini ponies, and baby goats, and never go to work. And go to school to be a commercial pilot, and a horse vet, but not actually work as either of those cause working is lame. And meet a pilot husband at pilot school so he can fly me places for free, and he would never be home so I could just ride ponies all day in peace.
What do you think of the ovation palermo saddle?
Looks like a nice starter saddle for the price! I'm not a huge fan of saddles with the changeable gullet system but it would be useful if you ride different horses all the time!
If you had the money would you buy a new cwd?
I mean if someone was going to give me one for free I would take it! I feel like it's worth it to get one that is a year or two old though because they go down in price quite a bit, I would have a hard time spending $8000 on a saddle to be honest ?
List of saddles you considered
CWD, CWD, CWD, I like Antares too though, that's about it ?

How long is the vet check? And when you first tried your horse how many day was it until he arrived at your barn?
The vet check took about an hour I think, they just do a complete physical exam and flexion test and then lunged him at all three gaits. I think it was almost two weeks after the first time we tried him that we trailered him to our barn!
What equestrian youtuber/horse pair do you ship the most?? :)
Lauren & Boo ??
Can you please explain the process of buying a horse?
1. Find a horse you like and show your trainer the add to see if they think it looks good. 2. Call the owner and ask if you can come try it. 3. Bring your trainer, they might ride the horse first. 4. If you like the horse schedule a vet check. 5. If the vet check goes well, buy the horse! 6. Schedule a hauler to pick up your ponaaaay!!!
