Yes. Many times as a teenager but not a lot in adult life. I am very comfortable around horses though and would not hesitate to get on one.

I was told as a lad, "Every Southern Gentleman should be able to ride a horse, tie a bow tie, and enjoy tobacco". Appreciation of whiskey was a given.

Rode many horses. None were mine. Love it, but for me a little goes a long way. With a back injury, I’m finished with them. Beautiful animals.

I rode a crazy (somewhat wild spirited) horse. It was scary at times, but fun.
One thing you learn quick is trotting sucks. Slower or faster is fine, but in between is rough if the stirrups are too long and you don’t have good technique. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I grew up in the suburbs. No fucking way I rode a horse. I grew up in the suburbs as well, but we kept a horse on a friend's farm, not too far away. I used to ride it all the time. My first experience on a horse was when I was 3 riding w/ my dad. Horse got spooked, reared up, I slipped off the back, the horse fell and landed on my ankle breaking it. Good times. |

I grew up dating a dairy girl riding horses before she went to nursing school... still in counseling but it was a great ride.
 Edit: she wasn't a redhead for the leg humper trifecta |

I worked on a farm in high school. I've driven tractors, made hay, shoveled shit out of a barn. Never ridden a horse. There's a horse shed on my property from the previous owner that needs a little work. I'll fix it up eventually but I dont plan on ever getting horses.

Yes since my family owned horses and mules. My wife has been pestering me for years wanting to buy a horse. It"s one of the few things I have flatly refused her.

Yep, when I was a kid. Been thrown off a couple of times as well. One impact giving me a nasty wrist break. Of course both times I was thrown off was on horses with no saddles or any other gear, and they both decided to take off like a bat out of hell.

Yes. And have been thrown off a few times. But, I was informed by GD that this is not the same as being thrown off a bull because the bull will attack you and the horse will run off.

Rode many, broke a couple, and spent alot of money in my early years trying to ride bucking horses.

Bought my first one in 1967 and owned at least one up until about 10 years ago.
Started riding stock seat (western), transitioned to jumpers, and then dressage. All of them were sweeties. |

Hell, I have owned hay burners. They were like overgrown dogs, no matter where I went they were always following me. If I was working on something they would be nosey and stick their face into everything, knock my beer over, knock my toolbox over. It was like having 1500 pound toddlers.

Dad had a couple when I was a teen. I rode them around a fair bit, but they were more like giant puppies in his and his wife's eyes.
I'd like to get one, but that'll be years in the future I imagine. |
