Default Too big??

Am I too big for my pony? He is 13.1-13.3hh mabey a low 14hh. I am 5'3. I dont think I am too big for him, but I wanted the opinions of others. Note: even if I am too big for him, i will still ride and show him because I am not hurting him in any way. I just want to know what you think. Thanks =]




In the first pic, i am riding weird. hahaha i have no cule why... hmmm? haha

Whew!! Look at all that pink!lol. I don't think you are too tall, he looks to take up your leg well. You look pretty small so I definitely don't think you're too heavy.

I wish I weighed 100 lbs!

But you certainly, not to large for him, looks like a great fit!

Too heavy is more what I'd watch for than too big, and no you don't look to heavy or big at all. It certainly doesn't look like carrying you is a problem for him.

Speed/Gaming ?
Reining,Working Stock,Cutting,Roping,Open Jumpers
No problem,
Some of your other disciplines also judge on suitability.
In that case then yes, you would get scored lower

I personally like small- Don't tell my big guy, he thinks I like him best !

I know you're gaming- but yes- this is correct...
