Excellent. That last rider really did look like he had a horse that was right there with him. Part of a cutting horse score is "eye appeal"...having a horse like his really adds to the performance I think.gtyyuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02402170522183324256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-69945468310982829652009-07-01T04:25:41.736-06:002009-07-01T04:25:41.736-06:00Some excellent action shots here!

We were surprised our mare wasn't concerned about the firing because she gets worked up about things easily. I didn't try it with my horse. Fun to watch, but not my thing, either.Tammy Vasahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01531335275070860886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-3587176996692222172009-06-28T11:56:20.384-06:002009-06-28T11:56:20.384-06:00Wow - great shots.

It's interesting and definitely preserves a bit of our western heritage! :) I was curious about the guns, thanks for explaining that. You took some great pictures, I love their cowboy get-ups. Which reminds me, were there any cowgirl riders? I think quite a few women participate. Someone asked about earplugs for the horses. That would be interesting to see. Although I knew an old school horse that they just stuffed cotton balls down his ears when he was giving lessons. ;)Pony Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-75825757306787179202009-06-28T10:48:25.044-06:002009-06-28T10:48:25.044-06:00I'm totally obsessed with Cowboy Mounted Shoot...I'm totally obsessed with Cowboy Mounted Shooting; even more so recently.

I am the first to feel sorry for the animals. I hope the one that fell is ok. I feel worse for the animal than the rider.
