Rogo's Goals Up To End Of September
I haven't done goals in a while. Just for fun I've copied goals from a year ago and added where he is now, based on his competition and clinic scores where possible.
It doesn't seem like a lot, but we've added new areas. I need some new categories, so here goes:
Training area | Achieved Aug. 2010 | Achieved Aug. 2011 | ||
Contact (accepting contact with the bit) | 6 (hmmm, I don't think so) | 6 (7 to 8 in walk and trot, 5 in canter but coming faster) | ||
Bending | 5 | 7 | ||
Working trot | 7 | 7 | ||
Canter: Transition Carry Steer | 6 5 5 | 7 all | ||
Circles | 6 | 7 | ||
Free walk | 7 | 8 | ||
Halt | 6 | 7 | ||
Straight on center line | 6 | 8 | ||
Rhythm | 6 | 7 | ||
