Draft shows

I'm not really sure this belongs here but...Does anyone else show drafts? What do you like best about it?

I show Clydes and Shires in halter and ladies cart. I love the getting them ready part! You spend hours getting them ready with braiding and getting thier white areas back to white, and cleaning their feathers.... Hours, well days of work...Then they place....Theres no better feeling.

Yeah i love when you get to show all your hard work and i really like youth driving (even though i just got started this year i got 4th out of 10 youths in my first driving class!!) and showmanship. I love drafts : ] they are such sweet hearts.

Its much more laid back then other showing, plus, its fun to spiff them up and whiten them up!

I do halter and breed classes.

I'm envious of you guys. I want a draft so bad, but my dad says we can't afford to feed one, haha.
