I wouldn't take on back unless it was a very particular set of circumstances. It doesn't take much to screw up a good horse.

My husband broke his elbow in October, and didn't think he'd be able to ride for at least 6 months. We have too many head horses so he told me to list the one he'd been debating on selling anyway, while he was in decent shape still.

THREE people tried the horse. None bought him. But from just a couple different people riding him and roping steers, my husband is still "fixing" him. Dang team ropers---most really do fit the stereotypes. 2 out of the 3 anyway lol.

There's nothing more frustrating than fixing a horse from people trying him!!

I never do trials. If people want to come try a horse 10 times on site they can. Well, a friend convinced me to let a close friend of hers try a horse of mine for two weeks a few years back. Long story short she just needed a mount for a clinic and completely screwed me... and I was left with pieces to pick up in the end. I spend months fixing what she undid over her two week trial just to be able to list him again!!!
