Snow and Sleet Mix, Clearing at Night| DSD Training Center |
| I like the rodeos around me a lot because they attract a ton of people headed to the NFR, one of which I know, so we always get a good show. Though this year, there was a horse that died during the Tie Down or something at the Horse Heaven Roundup this year, the day after I went, that unfortunately some of the people I know saw |

| I have Old Fort Days in the town I work in. Love that thing. Miss the Dandies |
| DSD Training Center |
| There's some smaller ones within like 200 miles of me, but no one really goes to them because the Big 4 (The Horse Heaven Roundup, Walla Walla Frontier Days, Lewiston Roundeup and the Pendleton Roundup,) attract so many people. I have recently gotten interest in roping and barrels and stuff like that, though I've been having to teach Sophie how to rope, but thankfully not run barrels because the guy who trained her also trains barrel horses, so |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| We have so many rodeos. So many. All year long. I have nothing against them, I started on barrels. I just, ended up discovering I really did not like it. How I ended up slowing down makes no sense to me, but I love and am passionate about what I do now. |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| There is also associations that have their own circuit but limited number of shows. Like the link I just shared? 5 shows a year lol. The dressage association is about the same where the other circuit will have 7-8 shows and your horse can really be shown off for all its training. I prefer those circuits. |
| DSD Training Center |
| We mainly have western circuts, and the only rodeo stuff we have near me that we can do is like Barrel Club and then stuff you do on your own, but that's because my surrounding rodeos are the Big 4. |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| We have maybe 2 circuits that have English and Western events, the rest is rodeo. English is really hard to find and it is also something that is hard to find someone who teaches it safely. |
| DSD Training Center |
| We have some big pleasure shows that attract a lot of people from out of state, but we really only have clinics and schooling shows for really any English disciplines. |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| I am sorry it is a pet peeve, and I am sorry I struck it, but I am going to stick with what people call it in my area since that makes sense to the people who are around me. And I am also not one who cares about wording either. I am not doing it professionally nor do I plan on competing outside my area. Local only. With that, I am dropping it. |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| we do not really have a huge thing for English though. Most of our barns are rodeo or western. Northwest Arkansas and Central Arkansas are where you will find most of the jumping. Everyone else does flat classes. |
| Boulder Creek |
| But you don't do hunter jumper. Yes it's encompassing. But that's like saying I do cross country when that's not a thing. You can do cross country schooling but usually with a purpose like for eventing. It's a total pet peeve. |

| This is my girl, Sophie, in her ranch tack. It is actually working tack. I tried to get pictures of her in English and then playing polo from my phone but it will not work, so. -Click- |
| The Old Gods |
| But yeah. Year and a half of work, and she came running up to me this morning and was nickering. First time she's ever done that |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| I am not sure why. All the shows label it as such, everyone calls it as such, so that is what I am used to calling it. There’s even this that calls it that calls it that too. And that is our official Association for it. -Click- |
| The Old Gods |
| -Click- tl;dr: it's called hunter/jumper and encompasses three different sub-disciplines. |

| I love Shires & Clydesdales… owning one is most likely never gonna happen but they are gorgeous horses |
