Weekend riding!
  • So last weekend I rode both days! ( lol that never happens) 
    Saturday I went trail riding on a STEER!! haha, my first time!

    and Sunday I took Rocky for a ride, it was his first time down the road!

  • Great videos.  LOVE the hat cam.  Your bovines went well and Rocky was wonderful.  
  • I'm probably the only one who doesn't recognize the music, but I loved it!  Who is it?  It made me smile to see you guys moving to that music.  Rocky  has a swing to his walk, doesn't he?
    I would have loved to have seen a good pic of you on both of them.  Were you on a saddle on the steer? If you think the donks are hard to fit, I imagine finding a saddle to fit a steer would be a lot like....  a challenge! [':)']
    Thanks for sharing. That really made my day.
  • the music is actually my BF, it's a cover of someone else's song, I'd have to find out what it is. lol but it's one of my favorites that he sings.

    yes!! Rocky has a bit of swagger!! So does Dozer the Dexter, I was in a cashel soft saddle on Dozer, he is WIDE & FLAT!! I thought donks were hard to fit! Jazzy the longhorn on the other hand is built more like a horse, and acts more like a horse.

    I don't have a full one of me on Dozer, but here's me & Rocky








      

    update lol: the song is by the Jolly boys from the 1950's and it's called 'Judy not drown'


  • OH.MY.GOODNESS!!!  I love the song!! I want to post it on fb so my son can listen to it!!!
    Cute pics, too!  Did he take those?  I'm guessing that was him taking pics on the road during the video?  Tell him I love his music.  Does he do any John Prine?
  • Here's the link to his webpage ':)'

    I don't think Judy is on there, though. I'll have to see if he can get it up there somehow.


    Yes that was him taking pics of me riding ':)' so nice of him.


    Here's his artistic Rocky shot LOL (it was his first time using that particular camera - at one point he was having wayyyy too much fun with speedburst mode!)


  • Wow, riding a steer!  Are they smooth or bumpy?  There's a guy who rides a huge Brahma (sp?) bull in the parades near here.
     
    Rocky is doing so well!
  • The weekend before I had led Dozer into the pasture for my friend and really noticed his swagger! He was a lot smoother than I thought he was going to be,even with the impromptu trot! I stayed on though,so smooth I guess. (on a soft saddle & one stirrup lol)

    Here's some more vids of the 'moo boys', these guys are totally 'been there done that' you really gotta hand it to my friend for doing so much with them.

    here's Jazzy doing arena work, he's been trained with parelli, I'm still amazed how soft he can be!

    rocky is really doing well, for the amount I've been working with him.  Still need to do lots of groundwork & foundation stuff though. My friend is gonna haul both of the donks out to the trail next weekend, so we'll have our first ever trail ride,should be cool!

    Reel him in girl before he starts dancing on the tables!!  LOL [':D']
    Thanks for the link!
    By the way, I saw your site. (haven't checked his out yet) I really love it.  I see you used the Weebly (drag & drop?).  I just did a site (posted about in NHR) and used Weebly.  I want to link FB to it but I'm not there yet.... 
  • Okay wait.... SCREECH... hold on.  I'm marvelling over you riding the steer in the arena and kind of holding my breath because... after all, it's a STEER!
    THEN I blink and you're IN A PARADE riding them?  Holy... well... COW!  And is that an American Express card stuck on his butt?  [':D']
    That's just too cool!  I wanna!!! 
  • thats my friend who owns them riding them ':)' she does all sorts of things with them. she's really a neat gal.  And she never rode previously to this, she just decided she wanted saddle steers!! haha!!

    I LOVE weebly. it makes life so easy!! I have a fb page too 
    off to go check out yours!


    Just checked it out! Looks great!!

  • I feel a hijack coming....  LOVE that song! He looks like quite a character! [':D'] I plan to check out some of the others.  Looks intriguing.
    Do you guys do the construction and everything involved in the home theatre site?  I guess I should ask if it's your business.
    Between the steers being rideable and the size of the donks, I feel like riding Dani should be fine for me! [':)']  I still need to find her a home, I think.

    Thats the company I work for, usually if there's framing involved the customer will already have a general contractor we'll work with. But we do build custom speakers also - thats about as far as the 'construction' side of it goes for us ':)'
  • I forgot it's your thread we're hijacking.  A "mock" hijacking.  Anyway, thanks for sending me the song.  It would be great to run to.  I love it and I woke up thinking it.  can't stop thinking it actually.  LOL  Better than the stupid country song that I had stuck in my head for the past couple weeks!
