I voted english b/c that's what I do now and I LOVE jumping and all that kind of stuff. But western is fun - haven't done that in a long time. If I ever "went western" I'd definately think I could get into the contesting thing. I love doing barrels, well not on my horse, after every barrel he bucks - lol!

I'm a western girl. But I AM currently crossing over. Jumping definitly is IT, but can't beat out a horse on AUTO going after a cow.

I voted western as I have never done English. Would like to get into the jumping thing, but wouldn't want to wear a helmet, so here I am, lol.
