I like Roxanne's idea that "day-members" only be allowed to ride for completion. I would go a step further though, & say that "day-members" only be allowed to...
I'm not sure riding for completion only would change anything for overly competitive people. I was at the Biltmore Fall Fling one year when they offered a...
I don't like the sponsor being responsible for the behavior of another. With a Junior it is different, they are more malleable than an adult. It is not...
Have you ever tried to give advice to an adult who isn't willing to listen? At least with juniors the threat of "I will never sponsor you again" works for the...

Male bashing doesn't become you lovely lasses ;-) . Better be careful Jeanie or I'll drive back up to Michigan next summer and steal you Ben and Jerry's. ...
... than ... There's an easy fix for the non-listening, sponsored rider. The sponsor could have the option to "drop" the sponsorship which would DQ the...

Truman, you are not an issue. After all, you like Ben and Jerrys too. You would have kicked this guy in the butt too. Unfortunately it is rare to find a...
Good morning everyone, Please note the date change for the 2008 TX Bluebonnet Classic. We have swapped dates with Hog Scramble and the date is now April 26,...
Well, I'm probably gonna get a lot of rocks thrown at me, but here goes.? I don't like the idea of a mentor or sponsor for first time riders.? This is not the...
I totally agree with Cindy. This year at two different CTRs we had two groups of newbies. Neither of them even were familiar with the rules. We all said "Oh...
Cindy, I personally don't think having a sponsor at a ride should be mandatory either. My mentoring or "coaching" as I like to call it, is with two ladies who...
I have over the years "found" sponsors for my juniors at rides, sometimes with not good results.? You try to pick the best person you can but "I'm going real...

I think a lot of us would have had the same reaction. Bottom line it is the responsibility of each individual to care for his horse - period. It is not the...
