Barrel Racing 101 E-Guide

For anyone who wants to start barrel racing, but didn't grow up in a barrel racing family or who doesn't have access to a coach or mentor to help them get started.

What You'll Learn

• Basics of the pattern
• Types of competitions (Playdays/Jackpots/Rodeos/etc)
• How to find races and get plugged in
• How to read race flyers
• About associations and series
• How to enter + fees explained
• How the divisional system works
• Common terms and lingo
• Barrel racing etiquette

*NOTE: This guide does NOT cover any aspects of training a barrel horse. I do not believe I am qualified to teach that. I would encourage you to find a trainer or mentor (The section on getting plugged in to the barrel racing community will help with this!) with more experience for hands on help  for the riding aspect.
