Ok so this doesn't have anything to do with trucks, but I thought that some of ya'll may b able to help me out. I am looking for barrels to practice with (barrel racing). Right now, the place I am keeping my horse focuses on jumpers and so I have been using jump stands for practice. Intercolliegate rodeo season is starting up and this is just not gonna cut it. So if anyone knows where I can find barrels for a decent price, please let me know!!!! I am desperate and the price for the fancy new ones you can get out of the magazines is a little too much for my starving college student budget. Thanks!

 

Check Tractor Supply. I believe they have 55 gallon drums for sale in both metal and plastic....and they're right down the road from you at Texas Ave. and 2818....across from Albertson's by Putt-Putt. The Farmer's Coop over in Bryan might be able to help you out too.

 

55 GALLON barrels, metal, $5, plastic $7. 254-799-7966<br><br>Above add is in Waco Thrifty Nickel. If your up near Waco, you might check it out. Also keep watch in your local Thrifty Nickel for barrels for sale.<br><br>If you are going through Morgan Mill, just north of Stephenville on hwy 281, they have a bunch of barrels for sale at the store there.

 

Waco is only 100 miles from you.....well worth the drive I'd think.

 

What size barrels? 35 or 55 I have a couple of 35's and maybe one 55 up at the ranch.

 

Thanks ya'll I am going to check out those places soon. Hopefully I will be reporting back with a big scholarship and a belt buckle!

 

There is a place not far from you, in Milano, that allways has barrels for sale. Right on the main drag, going towards Rockdale. <br><br>Get the plastic ones, and wear the shin guards. After a few years the barrels will be tough on the knees.<br>
