Location: louisburg, ks | I once was a consistentat 1D rider, I've had a few injuries an such, nothing bad but everytime I come back after one I ride more timid. How does one go about getting over this? I always feel like I'm going fast to the first barrel, which seems to be my mane issue an watch my videos an I look like I'm slow loping. Any advice? I gotta get over this. |

Watching because I'm the same way. I feel as if I am making an NFR quality run then I end up in the eighth D. |

Mine bucks when I kick. He will go faster with an over and under, but the bucking has made me insecure, and it's a vicious cycle because I'm afraid to let go of the horn to use the over and under in case he bucks, all the while, while knowing that he's not going to run without the over and under. I'm 60 so that doesn't help. |
