Horse:  I have a wonderful Morgan horse named Bridger. He is 23 years old and this will be his 7th year in drill team. He enjoys trail rides and playing in the water. Bridger came from Whidbey Island and got him when I was about5 or 6.   

 

Family:  I have two, wonderful, supportive parents. My mom is the teams choreographer and my dad is the team drill coach. It's a family thing. I also have two older, great brothers, Cory and Chris, and one older, awesome sister named Chelsea. I also have a gorgeous Australian Shepherd named Smokey that's my best friend. We also have a Appaloosa Mare named Shawnee and a tough Quarter Horse named Stormy.

 

Drill History:  When I was about 6 or 7, I saw my mom on Bridger doing drill and I was surprised how drill worked. Bridger was very good, but first he didn't' like it. I rode Bridger in some gaming, and we liked to do barrels and poles. My Dad started coaching the team after the first year of my mom rode. Then, when I was about 10 or 11, my mom gave me Bridger to do drill. I was so excited! Finally, I can do drill with the perfect horse and ever since its been us together. This will be our 3rd year together and we love it. We are perfect partners. We both can memorize the drill fast. He will just ride it. I could sit back and let him do it

 

Why I enjoy Drill:  I enjoy the fun. We all have fun. Also the girls are just so great. They are full of Laughter and Fun. I also enjoy it because it will teach you different things like riding with one hand and keeping your hand down on your leg. It's also good for your horse and the rider because they experience new things.
