aproxomaitly please he is about 15 hh

Answer 1

Your horses stride should be around 12 ft., so a four stride line it will be 48 feet away+12 feet for take off and landing is 60 ft. so you will probably want to take about 4-5 steps per stride x 5 (4 strides + 12 ft. for take off and landing) is 20-25 steps, depending on how long your stride is. For a bounce you would take about 4-5 steps because 4-5 steps=a 12 ft. stride or 12 ft. for take of and landing.

Hope this helped!

Answer 2

bounce fences are approximately 3meters apart, so you add an extra meter for 1 stride (allows for space on take off and landing)

ergo>

bounce = 3 meters
one stride = 4 meters
2 strides = approx 7 meters

if your horse is average striding these distances will work

1 meter is a large step from a medium sized person, im 5'6 so this usually works for me

hope this helps.

Answer 3

60 feet apart. If your horse has an ideal 12-foot stride, he'll be able to achieve four comfortable strides between jumps.

Answer 4

It depends on your horse's size and stride. Try checking on websites, or even with a horse trainer!

Answer 5

Hi, Alex- I think I can help you out a little bit, because I know several different quotations and proverbs, along with some sayings from various sources. Okay, here goes: "It is not enough to know how to ride. One must also know how to fall."- old Mexican proverb "See to it that the colt be kind, used to the hand, and fond of man."- attributed to Xenophon, circa 425 B.C. "A Hibernian Sage once wrote that there are three things a man never forgets: his first love, the girl of his dreams, and a good horse."- Old Buddist proverb "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride."- Old Celtic proverb "A canter is the cure for every evil."- Benjamin Disrreali " There is nothing better for the inside of a person than the outside of a horse." -attributed to both Will Rogers and Sir Winston Churchill Horse lovers are stable people ( T-shirt slogan) Hunters and jumpers do it in mid-air ( license plate frame slogan) Dressage is...Letter Perfect ( another license plate frame slogan) "A woman's place is on a horse !!" ( T-shirt slogan) "A girl, her dog, and her horse.... it's a beautiful thing." ( T-shirt slogan) "Green and green don't make blue.... They make red."- Olympic medalist and USET chef d'equipe Frank Chapot, on the subject of horse training "The most splendid gift of all is a noble horse."- proverb "And the sixth horse shall be a bay, not a dark bay, but a clear bay, whose coat is touched with gold. When he flees under the sun he shall be the wind."- attributed to the sheikh or sultan of Morroco in the 17th century "Throw your heart over the fence and your horse will follow."- proverb These are all the ones I can think of for now.

Answer 6

It depends on how many hands tall the horse is. To check his stride find a wet muddy field, run him through and then go back and measure.

Answer 7

Yes 60 is a good average. To be able to pace it out easily rake a smooth spot and take several even steps then measure them heel to heel (probably 24-30 inches) and determine how many steps it will take you to reach 60 feet. A 24 inch step will take 30 steps. 30 inch steps will take 24 to make 60 feet

Answer 8

It depends on the size and stride of your horse. (And I suppose the size of your stride too)

Answer 9

it really depends on the size of your horse and its strides. maybe check on google to see what u could do/
