Week 9

Tuesday: 3 hours at Sunnyluck Farms. Rode Denzel and Reagan. Worked with Denzel on beginning spins, worked with Reagan at the lope.

Thursday: 3 hours at Sunnyluck Farms. Rode Apple, Godiva, and worked more with Reagan on loping correctly and not leaning on the bit or my leg.

Then visited a small local ranch that raises sheep and scheduled one day a week that I will be working for her riding her colt, and doing general ranch work.

Friday: 4 hours at Sunnyluck Farms, rode Rosie, a 11 year old mare that hasn't been ridden in a few years. She was a little hot and a little nervous, but got over it pretty quickly and should be a fun horse to work with. Then tied Reagan's head in the round pen. After we were done with the horses, we cleaned the barn in preparation for the clinic Saturday for a few hours. Then had a 4-H demonstration in the evening. I showed a basic stopping drill.

Saturday: Helped Sabrina all day for her first clinic of the season, an introduction to body control. Rode Apple and she was very good. We helped teach and acted as an example for collection, starting spins, correct body form, and side passing.
