How can I barrel race?! suggestions horsey people?

Yeah i run NBHA in ohio, it's great. You can't really run other peoples horeses because they're not very nice haha and they are probably really competetive and dont want their horse to have an extra run. But you can always lease a barrel horse from someone, just go to a show and ask around to see if anyones leasing horses out. you are right, barrelracing is soo much better and more exiting, i've been barrel racing about 4 years in NBHA and I love it. It has lots of opportunities too. Theres a NBHA youth/teen world that i went to 3 times, and going again this year to show. You have to qualifty for that though. They also have an open world for people of all ages. Go to a href="http://www.nbha.com/" rel="nofollow"http://www.nbha.com//a and find your district!
