Posse Fall Classic Competition Part 2

Ok the last of the 2 videos uploaded and a bonus I got my picture back too!! The videos are of the individual fleeing fellon and the team fleeing fellon. This was alot of fun cause you got to open up your horses speed here. In the individual Marley and I had the best time plus we completed all the obstacles. Here is what was asked of us in the first on 1)time starts when you touch the rope to open the gate, go into arean 2) go around the campfire, for some reason Marley thought we where done and wanted to head back out after we got 3/4 of the way done! 3) cuff the fellon 4) pick up the trash, put it in the barrel, back out of lane. 5) go over the bridge, little stinker thought he could avoid it! 6) around the barrel 7) jump the blocks, had a miss communication here 8) bring home the milk jugs, 8-10 jugs on a string being pulled behind him 9) close the gate. Talk about a great run, I was on cloud 9 after that, it was so much fun! Here is the link to watch that one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIJxv-BLSyc From there to use up some time while the scores where being totalled we went on to do the team fleeing fellon. This class was more for fun for everyone and the points didn't go towards any of the previous classes. Dave from our posse and I took the first run at it to show how it was done. Keep in mind on any of these classes it was our first time seeing and doing them as well. 1) one team member opens the gate, the other closes it, we did pretty good here 2) off to the camp fire, one member moves one of the chairs, the other grabs the pail and dumps water on the fire and puts the pail back 3) off to cuff the fellon, Dave couldn't get the cuffs off! One member takes off the cuffs and the other one has to hang them up on the pole 4) grab the hula hoop from the mail box, drag it along the tape and drop it over the top of the end barrel, each rider grabs a side of the hoop. 5) one rider takes the bridge, the other a mattress, we chose the bridge 6) there is a rope laying on top of the barrel each rider will grab an end and then proceed to jump the blocks at the same time and then drop the rope after the jump 7) round the barrel to home and pick up the body and drag him to the finish. That dummy was really heavy! Here is the link to watch that one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcXArTuOGZ8 It was a great day, it was fun to do something different. Enjoy the excitement!!

  3. Another great post! You two are amazing; what a team you make. Too bad we live so far away from each other because it would be fun to hit the trail with you. These competitions look like a lot of fun, too.
