I don't have a regular trainer, nor do I board at a barn that shows together, so I just end up going by myself. A lot of times I can coerce my mom into going with me, mainly as a camera person, but I've been showing horses alone since I was 16, so I've got it down to a science and oftentimes bringing someone along (especially a non-horse person) throws a wrench in my workings.
It is a bit of a struggle to show alone and sometimes I wish I had a better support network to help me out, but overall it's really not bad.
The one show I even had an actual groom at! But I still did a lot of it myself lol. |
i mostly show alone too - and while i agree that it's easier not having to worry about other ppl (especially non-horsey ppl), it's honestly not my favorite and i prefer to go with friends who are also showing (or at least go where i know other ppl who are showing)
