can you ride a horse

[Scythe13]

Haha, this could be an interesting debate. Best friend used to breed horses and the wife had horses as a child.

One thing that always makes me laugh, hacking is simple enough. Most horses that people ride are not 'real horses' so to speak. They're trail horses, that just follow whatever's infront of them. They will be used to certain routes and following other horses. If this is what you're used to, like I am, you're in the same situation as me, under the illusion that you can ride a horse.

Until you're rode a horse that is used to open ground, that you actually have to control, then you're just kidding yourself. Riding a horse is one of those things that will cause pain. Strong thighs are REQUIRED! Expect an aching back, and a sore bum, if you don't do it right. If you do it right, you can take away the aching back and sore bum. But your thighs will be killing you if you're not used to it.

If you want to start horse archery....HAHA, good luck with that one!!!
