Horse club

Pics
Anybody else want to join the Horse club??
I will. If you'll have me! I'm more of a chicken and pigeon person now! I was heavily into horses some years back. I groomed for a polo team and also groomed an army drum horse called Peninsula. He was a 17hh clydesdale.
I have a very limited amount of pictures from then but this is Bob and Chip, two of the polo ponies I groomed.

Bob on the right and chip on the left. I met my wife whilst grooming. She was into show jumping, dressage and cross country.

This is her on her friesian called Wiebke. She was a outstanding horse. Anyone who says a friesian can't jump, well I beg to differ!

Jumping at the RASS in sennelager, Germany.

Her last horse was a 16.3hh thoroughbred hannovarian. We had to sell her due to family commitments and have not really had much to do with horses for several years. We got a horse on loan the middle of last year and the opportunity came to buy her, so how could I not! This is Nansi.

She is a 13.2hh Welsh C. My daughter rides her mostly and has ridden a couple a dressage tests and also likes to jump! This is her just before Christmas with the new family addition!

I hope you like this! I'm still looking for the elusive pictures of me! I know @casportpony wanted to see some!

They are lovely well done. I have a welsh cob and when he jumps he jumps about a foot in the air more than what he needs to clear the jump

Great photos! Part of the stallion testing for the German Friesian registry (FPZV) is a jumping portion! The jumps aren't very high but it shows the breed is capable of schooling some fences. This is me jumping, I'm not the best at it, dressage is my forte.

Ditto, im terrified of jumping but once I get going everyone says im better than some that have been jumping for ages. NEW SKILLS apparently:)
Now I can compete in jumping, my horse fly’s over jumps and lives dressage so I’m perfect match for him :)

Weibke had a foal called Otto. He could jump, not so good though he was a bit clumsy! But he was good for dressage. I miss the freisian they're so graceful. Especially when they're behaving!
You look like your jumping a respectable height though. I never had the balance for jumping!!

It's all about rhythm. You know your horse and know mostly what to expect. When your happy with your get up you can just go!
