  • Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List
    Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List Equestrian students are required to own and maintain the following equipment for their personal use in riding classes. Our faculty recognizes this list, though extensive, is not a complete list of equipment needed by professionals in our industry and is intended to accommodate the basic needs of students at the beginning of their careers. Substitution of some items is possible; however, the specific equipment listed below is recommended. During our first week of the academic year the incoming class tours local vendors for the purpose of acquiring supplies and equipment. Many students choose to leave the bulk of their personal gear at home and acquire a set of school equipment during the shopping days. Local vendors typically give discounts to RMC students on the items they purchase during the tours. If students have any questions, we recommend waiting until the faculty can assist in the purchasing process. We have strong opinions about what works best in our program and can best guide our students toward appropriate choices after the school year is underway. All personal gear should be clearly and indisputably labeled. Brass tags or plates riveted to leather tack are recommended. More economical “dog tags” can be purchased at a local PetSmart and work well to identify the owner. Additionally, black permanent markers can provide effective labeling of various items. Students may choose to color coordinate their gear using patterned duct tape or spray paint to create a distinctive “brand” on their equipment. Rider apparel Students need to manage their personal attire with a balance of professionalism in concert with practicality for weather conditions and budget.

    Second place team in the short course at the Wild West race: Jec Ballou and Siobhan Saunders with Freyja (Photo: Bill Gore Photography) PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE by Ben Volk, Ride and Tie Association President FORT BRAGG OR BUST! AUGUST 24, 2013 Well folks you voted, and the results are in: Fort Bragg, CA was selected as the site of the 2013 World Champi- onship Ride & Tie over the more southerly location of Cuyamaca, CA. Some of you may recall that Fort Bragg was the site of the 2004 Championship; but do you remember who won the race in 2004? Of course it was none other than Jim Howard riding Magic Sirocco and teaming with Dennis Rinde. The team covered the 34 mile course in 4 hours and 1 minute to beat the second place team of Brandi Page and Laurie Wilson by 23 minutes. Rounding out the top 3 were Jim Brown and Russ Kiernan. There were 32 teams in the 34-mile long course that year and 7 teams in the 17-mile short course. Remarkably only one team in each distance did not finish. Best Condition was won by the 3rd place team riding Yaquar Adonai. Fast forward to August 24, 2013. We are camped at the beautiful Simcha Ranch located 7 miles from Fort Bragg in Mendocino County, CA. We have 40 teams registered and are planning for 10 more before the race starts. We are camped adjacent to the endurance riders who will be competing in the Mendocino Magic Endurance Ride at the same time. We are hoping that some of the endur- ance riders will catch Ride & Tie fever and decide to jump off their horse for a while and join us for a Ride & Tie.

  • Read Book Through England on a Side-Saddle Ebook, Epub
    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

  • Back Country Horsemen's Guidebook
    Back Country Horsemen’s Guidebook DEDICATION We would like to dedicate this book to future generations; that they, too, may find the same peace and beauty that we now enjoy in the backcountry, and to the dedicated people who are working diligently to keep it unchanged by human hands! 1 A Message from the First President of Back Country Horsemen of the Flathead Nothing—absolutely nothing!—illustrates the evolution of Back Country Horsemen as does their guidebook on “best” use of horses and mules in wild America. Of that first group’s 43 charter members, none were writers. There were no editors, no designers, no professional copywrit- ers or artists. Yet that handful of visionaries set out to produce a pocket-sized guidebook valued by trail riders everywhere! Now, 45 years later, as a professional writer and publisher I might shake a head at that first effort. But after four subsequent editions, the evolution of that guidebook’s intent and content is clear—just as the idea and ideals of Back Country Horsemen itself has evolved from one club in remote Montana to 13,000 members in upwards of 200 chapters in local and state groups all across America. I’m terribly proud! Roland Cheek Founder and First President 1973 2 A Message from the Current President of Back Country Horsemen of Montana The Back Country Horsemen’s Guidebook enters its fifth edition for good reason. The Back Country Horsemen’s Guidebook is the distillation of the knowledge of so many BCH members over decades. The Guidebook provides common sense guidance on: safe- ty, preparation, horse-handling, comfort, and respect for the environment and others.

  • Disaster Planning for You and Your Horse Introduction
    DISASTER PLANNING FOR YOU AND YOUR HORSE INTRODUCTION What happens if you smell smoke in the air, the ground begins to roll under your feet, or the skies have opened with a once-in-a-hundred-year rain? Will you wish you had done your preplanning and set up your home and property with everything you need in an emergency? Or will you, in the terrible beginning moments as you confront the emergency, find there is no one to help you, find what you have is broken or inadequate, or that you can 't get to your supplies? When you plan, always consider the worst possibility: no water (or too much water), no power, gas, roads, or communication! And worst of all, it's probably dark outside. The following pages have been prepared to start you thinking about the needs of you, your animals,(yes, the ones smaller than horses, too), your property, and your neighbors. PLEASE READ IT NOW, BEFORE YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH AN EMERGENCY! A healthy and prepared horse owner will reduce risks to himself as well as his companion animals. Many suggestions are presented, and you must find the answers which are right for your own situation. You must focus on developing the resources necessary for an emergency - things that you will need for at least the first few days, as well as for a possible extended emergency that could go on for weeks, or even months. In the event of a major disaster, many horse owners will receive outside help slowly because they live in the country.
