Yes, Thats it.
Was giving a lesson awhile back. The girl that owned the horse was riding it and making all kinds of excuses why she "couldn't" . Got feed up and my sister was along-we play together ALOT. I asked her to get on him, I was teaching someone else a jumping lesson, so everytime he came past I would swing a rail or kick a ground pole @ him, until he didn't look @ me and went about his business.
Asked why would you do that. I said Why Not. I surely don't want to go in the show ring and get flung in the dirt because of something as simple as a 5 minute lesson we accomplished @ home.
Yes its that kind of stuff, bikes,motors,umbrellas,kids,toys,dogs,chickens,tar ps.
Tarps- made a sale once because horse walked across plastic sawdust cover, they never even rode were amazed by that.
But my favorite is to 2x4 corral a kids bouncy ball the ones with little legs that go in all directions and make noices, we have one in the ring @ least once a month.
