Liberty, Free Jumping and Bareback

I have been without a voice the past few days and finally felt up to doing something other than being a sloth. Initially I was only doing some playful lunging with Boss, starting out with the short line then progressing to liberty work. Sadly, I don't have a round yard so I made a template with my jumps across the arena.

Bareback with the Boss
I haven't concentrated enough of my time to doing my natural horsemanship bonding with Boss as I had with Rion. He is a quick learner though and has taken to his education well and enjoys his jumping. So much so that he jumped out of my makeshift round yard whilst doing liberty.

I didn't even expect to ride yesterday but ended up having a bareback jump out. Here is the best photo I got and a video.

Enjoy!

  2. Jess: I did not see bits or spurs in your blog. Would you be interested in writing about Tom Balding Bits and Spurs? If you are ever in our neck of the woods we would love to give you a personal tour of the shop. Tom’s small team handcrafts all of his bits and spurs in Sheridan Wyoming USA. I would love to answer any questions you might have or provide images for you if you are interested. You can see most of our products at http://www.tombalding.com . Because most are made custom to order we are also creating a product “creator” in which you can put together any combination you would like including finishes. We hope to have this up and running by mid-March. Thank you! Desirae
