English all the way. Riding a jumpy, frisky horse english gives you a rush like nothing else!

Well......I"ve ridden both english and western for about 17 years. However, are we talking hunt seat english? At the moment I have a Tennessee Walker and prefer to ride Saddle Seat

. I also am quite fond of riding side saddle.
I really only like to tack up western if I'm going to be doing barrel racing, which is usually about once a week.
I guess for me it depends on what we're doing that day....jumping, barrels or just some schooling!
