Why ride bridle less? If you get your horse Calm, Connected and Responsive enough, you can do ANYTHING with your horse. I like to put a good Foundation on my horse using Parelli methods, as I like to do lots of different things with my horses. I play with cows, take Dressage lessons, jump, do Cowboy Dressage and trail ride with the same horse.

Stetson is funny. He loves to jump the barrel. I had to keep telling him, “not yet… not yet … OK, now!” He especially likes to do the Half Jump at the end. Pat Parelli says, “Your horse is entertainment for you. Can you be entertainment for your horse?”
