|
|
| I'm looking for someone to ride a couple of colts for me. Does anyone have any advice on who they think would ride them for me. I had an MRI a couple of weeks ago and my gulfers knee has a torn-wore-out at my age lateral meniscus. And some other problems with some ligements. Needless to say my colt-riding days are over. Actually I hope I can still ride gentle ones.... Anyway any advice is welcomed.

| Katrina, where are you located? I know a young lady in South Dakota that is very good and would probably ride them for you.

| All that I know is that she is from Eagle Butte. She is living with a guy that works on a ranch out this way. Seems to be kinda a stormy relationship. They have a son who will start school this fall at our little school. No big deal just thought you might be related.....

| Hmm...if she is from Eagle Butte and she is a Tibbs then i guarantee she is related to me. Not sure she must be a wife of one of my second cousins or something. Maybe Pat's wife???...or i'm not all sure who lives up in that Eagle Butte area anymore. It was all of Shortlogs family. Some people swap wives like I do clothes, so i can't keep up a lot of the time. you got me curious now.....is she married to this guy? is he the Tibbs or is she? Whats the kids name?

Katrina,
If your wheels are gimpy, a gaited horse will smoothe out the ride enough that you may stll ride. A Paso Fino or a fox trotter. Trouble is if you're not looking for one they're cheap, but if you want one they can get as pricy as a good rope horse.
I have a decent twister, the horses he takes in get roooode. Given the distance, I wouldn't haul to Kansas unless your colts are real snuffy broncs.
