Beginning a career in barrel racing is a great challenge
singlesndbarrel | 14 Mart, 2019 03:33Beginning a career in barrel racing is a great challenge for young as well as
older horse riders. Getting the right saddle and tack is just the first step.
Aswith all saddles, finding a good balance between quality, price and style
requires research. Here we will look at the requirments that a barrel racer and
his horse must have in order to compete with the professionals of today's
rodeo.
A barrell racing saddle is distinguished for the most partby it's
size and extruder
screw and barrel weight. It is built for speed, so being smaller and lighter
than any otherwestern saddle is a must to this end.The outer skirts are
minimized in size and the tree is small and light-weight on a barrell saddle.
Often these saddles result in an under 30 pound rig,making the horsework less
and move faster.The rider must be balanced out with his or her saddle. Hanging
on in tight turns around the barrels.
The racing saddle seat is
constructed with a relatively flat seat, which provides the rider ease of
movement to balance the horse intight turns around the barrel. The cantle
however and the pommel are high so as to give the rider amore secure ride as the
higher cantle gives support to the riders back, keeping him deeper in the seat.
The barrel saddle horn is madetall and narrow so the racer can grab on to it for
lightening speedsprints to the gate at the end of the race. It is easier to keep
a boot in a stirrup that is narrow,thus thebarrel saddlehas a more narrow tread
to keep booted feet tight in. Also, because of possible brushing against or
hitting barrels in tight turns, the stirrups are often covered with rawhide,
which is more screw and barrel
resistant to scrapes than softer leather. To produce the most balance for the
rider, the fenders on this rig are free-swinging for ease of movement so the
rider can keep his or hers legs directly under their bodies at all
times.
The summary of the barrel saddle is simple. It is a saddle that is
built tough to be able to withstand the rigors of speed, tight turns and
possible scraping against obstacles while being as light as possible. This
saddle also must keep the rider feeling well balanced, safe and secure so as to
maximize confidence in the fact that he or she won't fall off their horse around
a turn. Each rider is timed by a clock to determine the winner and every
one-hundreth of a second counts.
