So I am sort of pursuing this new interest in drafts under saddle... I'm curious, perhaps there's a thread I've missed - is there somewhere on the forums I can find photos of drafts under saddle? I never really thought it was that popular and had never really considered it before...
I'm not sure, perhaps you fans can help me out...if there's no other threads, please post your pics!!! Maybe you can reign me over to the dark side... :wink:
Some of you guys look so tiny on them! Keep the photos coming. We have a lot more members on the forum who own and ride drafts, than I expected. Neat pictures.
LOL... I'm not sure... it was tough for sure, I thought I was a goner! All she tends to do is stop with her head up, we joke around and say "she's gone periscope up again!"
Amblin Cowgirl- Just wanted to say what lovely photos these are of you & your black Percheron in the snow. Beautiful Art.
My Grandmother raised this breed back in Kansas. I've always been attracted to their rounded Grand form.
We trail ride two Percherons and a Belgian on a regular basis. The Percherons can be ridden by anyone and can be fun, they will go through or over anything and trot and lope very willingly.
This is my Gypsy Cob, Keswick...I don't really know if you would consider him a draft but he is a definitely a draft type. He looks big, but he's only 14.2 For perspective, the horse he's standing next to in the third picture is 17 hands, and I'm 5'2":
Oh Yea!! He is such a good looking boy and he definitely is a sweetheart! One can always tell by their kind eyes and the way they hold their ears Thanks for sharing !
I really enjoyed browsing through this entire thread!! Everyones pictures are so great to see. All my experience is with the lighter breeds QH,TWH, Saddlebreds, etc. However I love the Draft Horses a lot. If I could afford it I'd have a horse of every breed.
Lovely, Lovely horse. She is art work- nice bending work too.
