What, mostly do you do with your horse – even if you go out once a year, what do you compete at? Sorry If I have missed anything out!

Mostly hunting (not a competitive sport, but that's what I do mostly!

), and I also do Hunter Trials, Affiliated Dressage, and I'm starting Affiliated Showing and Affiliated SJ later this year

Very Happy Hacker

Very tempted to have a go at a bit of dressage this year. Its the one thing I've never done!

Not alot as only had the boy 6 months. Hoping to get him to prelim dressage this year (or should I say Mangobiscuit getting him to that level) if we EVER get the right canter lead!! lol

I'd like to think we'll be doing up to about 2'6" jumping, maybe a few sneaky 3' courses. also want to hunt next season and squeeze in a few sponsored rides. Basically an intro year if all goes according to plan!
 

Not really silly that you can only tick one box- as the question is “what, mostly, do you do with your horse”

Now how did I forget hunting? Oh well. Sorry! I sort of had it from a competition perspective…so sorry if you only hunt…
 
It only allowed you to tick one. I currently hack out (horse been injured - swollen leg). However, once back on the road unaff dressage, SJ, may attempt XC and mini ODE - after lots of valium I think
 
I mostly do hacking, unaff dressage, unaff showing, unaff sj, le trec and am hoping to attempt some xc this year.
I'd go crazy just sticking to one thing... we're the jacks of all trades, masters of none.
 
No option for putting down what you will be doing...

currently Unaffiliated SJ, but hoping to event next season - on a ticket to start but might affiliate if I can get my transport sorted.

Also have a bash at most things i.e. unaffiliated dressage, hunting, Team Chasing (maybe next year), Hunter Trials... 's all good

can't vote, as I have 3 horses and they all do different things..smallest is a M&M inhand superstar, and in her spare time is a hack and confidence giver to new or nervous riders.
Middle one hunts and will be a WH this summer
biggest one is just schooling and hacking at the mo..but might go on to something more exciting this summer
 
Show my oldie in his veteran classes and with the youngster it will be my first year, so hopefully convert from a happy hacker to local competitions, easing him in gently to it all...the aim is to intro event him...please oh please!!!
 
I do endurance so when I am not doing that I am out hacking to keep him fit or get him fit as we are currently! Or should I say...trying to burn some of the spare tyre he seems to have acquired over the last 2 months!!!!

Right now I do nothing, but from next week should be back to mainly happy hacker, but with odd xc, sj and showing (all local though!)
