I just watched a video of Stacy Westfall's Championship Freestyle Reining with NO SADDLE, NO BRIDLE, NO NECKROPE! I own two horses and strive to be like Stacy and have the type of communication she has with her horses. I have one horse that we are using for barrel racing and the other is a good all around paint horse. The paint horse "Poncho" is very attuned to leg pressure. He just turns five this year and I have owned him for 2 wonderful years. I would love to try reining and Stacy has really given me the hope that I can reach a level of relationship with my horse that I previously did not think possible.I can hardly wait to get to the barn tonight to start working on some reining patterns!
Aside from that, I just found out that Stacy and her horse Roxy are performing at the Equine Affaire in Columbus, OH, which I have already purchased tickets to see! I am doubly doubly excited now to go and see her perform at the Pfizer Fantasia show. If you want to cry like I did...you should check out the video of Stacy at the All American Quarter Horse Congress in 2006 on YouTube... it is amazing:
