How many Horsemen are on here?

just wondering how many horsemen are part of this mob.. and what you do with them...
Me and RHStables( aka The BOSS) breed and sell Foundation bred Quarterhorses, and I start colts for folks and work with problem horses.
I show in the FQHR, mainly in pleasure and reining,and play at cutting...
past Mounted Law Enforcement also

Not any more, but used to, they were my life. Had a few thousand acres of beef cows, and did a little professional cowboy-ing on the side.
Rodeo, too.

Wifey and I run the Dixie Mule Ranch. We do trail training, colt starting, corrections, trailer loading etc.... and also offer the breeding services of our 14HH Jack. We occassionally breed our Foxtrotters with other Foxtrotter studs but lately we have been concentrating on breeding them for gaited mules.

Nope. I was a bull rider. I tried saddle bronc and bareback a few times. I might have been a good team roper, but I could never find a good heeler.

I have a an addiction of finding the scariest cliff trail I can find and pointin my mule right at it.

The next poll should be how many of you get out of bed in the morning and crack, pop, and snap like rice crispies on the way to the bathroom because you used to rodeo. Of course I still enjoy the heck out of a good buck every now and then as long as I stay on.

I used to show as a kid and have had quarter, morgans and mules. Mules are the best IMO. But I currently do not own any. I need to get some pack goats for hunting.

See there Chris, Mules are better. Bring your mare down this Spring and I'll put you in the mule business.

I can't decide if mine are from that or from running up and down blacktop hills on battalion "fun runs" and such.
