I can't show until next year either my new filly who i was going to show recently decided that she didn't want to be ridden and every time i sit on her she goes wild and bucks like crazy until i fall she is very stubborn. i have no idea what to do with her. I have been bucked off her 16 times, and i have only ridden her about 20 times. i havn't tried to ride her in over 3 weeks, we've just been doing ground work. I'm not that upset about not being able to show, because i still get to ride in fairs this year with my 4-H club (im borrowing a horse) good luck with ur riding Buddy, keep it up. I've been riding 6 years and to me learning how to ride was the best thing i ever did for myself.
