My gaming (barrel) horse is arena sour and refuses to go in the gate. It seems as if I’ve tried everything…backing in the gate, horses pushing behind him, horses walking in front of him, walking in with another horse, crop/bat, running in the gate, leading him in, someone else leading us in, bribing him. I’ve tried at few shows just doing a few classes for the day (2-4) and trying to keep him “slow” during the patterns. I’m always trying to stay relaxed before my event, keeping my legs loose, breathing easy, and just trying to keep my mind off of the event and just all around trying my best not to be nervous. I don’t normally practice the patterns at home, sometimes I will walk and trot the patterns and occasionally lope. I’m always going on trail rides with other horses and going alone. I try doing something different with him like riding bareback and doing jumping for fun. He won’t rear or buck and he won’t get hot, he will either stop and lock up or just start backing. How should I fix this issue?

Sounds like it is time to walk away for a while, give him a break. Try turning him out & riding him on trails or in the pasture without working on barrels & staying out of the arena for a while.
When our rope horses start getting sour, we turn them out for several months & when we ride, it is just for something to do, we do not "work" on anything. Just give their minds a chance to relax. It’s the same with people. You get burned out & need to just do nothing taxing for awhile.

Any good horse games out there?

I’ve already tried:
Bellasara, Ponystars, Howrse, A Virtual Horse, Horse Land, Horse Isles, My Stable

Seen but not interested unless yu can give me solid proof it’s fun:
Equine-ranch, hunt and jump inc, virtual horse ranch

No forum rpg please. Preferably something like Horse Isles, where you get to play move a 2D/3D world. Preferably don’t need downloading, but otherwise is okay. And I don’t fancy in clicking aimlessly forever to level (use a virtual horse and my stable as an example) Anything similiar to Howrse is most welcomed (where you don’t have to devote your time to the game like 24/7 to be good)

And if you have the knowledge, throw in a good vampire game as well. Same rules apply. For those who have facebook, a game which is similiar to Vampires (the Ciy of Eternal part)

Extra info: If you’re wondering about my age group find something 16-18 please. Anything more matured is fine.

Second life, Pirates and the Caribbean Online, Last Chaos, Perfect World, Runes of Magic, Minions of Mirth, Onverse and Vside.

For facebook, it will be Vampire Wars. It is very fun.

The Republic of Zimbabwe is a landlocked country in the southern part of the continent of Africa, between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers. It borders South Africa to the south, Botswana to the southwest, Zambia to the northwest, and Mozambique to the east.

The name Zimbabwe derives from dzimba Zimbabwe meaning houses of stone. Its use as the countries name is a tribute to Great Zimbabwe, site of the capital of the Munhumutapa Empire.

Present day Zimbabwe was the site of a large and complex African civilization in the 13th and 14th centuries.

It was populated by descendants of the Bantu tribes, who had migrated from the north around the 10th century.

Mainly pastoral, evidence of their lifestyle may be seen in the ruins of Great Zimbabwe, near the present day town of Masvingo.

The first contact with Europeans was with the Portuguese at the end of the 15th century. Relations between the two were fairly. Until the 1830s, when the region was thrown into upheaval by the northward migration of the Ndebele people from South Africa.

The Ndebele, who espoused a Zulu warrior tradition, effectively enslaved the indigenous Shona people until the end of the century.

At this point, a new aggressive breed of colonists arrived in the form of British mining interests led by Cecil Rhodes British South Africa Company. The BSAC took control of the country which they called Southern Rhodesia until 1923, when it became, nominally, a British colony.

This followed a referendum for whites only on joining the Union of South Africa.

In 1965, a bitter civil war between the white minority government and fighters for African independence, ending only in 1980, with the granting of independence and the holding of a general election under British auspices, which was won decisively by Robert Mugabes ZANU party.

The main focus of dissent in the early years was from Joshua Nkomos ZAPU opposition party ZANUs former ally in the Patriotic Front that fought the guerrilla war against Rhodesia from their bases in Zambia and Mozambique. From 1985, however, the two parties moved towards a merger, which was peacefully achieved in January 1988. Named ZANU PF, the party assumed undisputed political primacy, unchallenged by any significant opposition until the end of the 1990s.

There are lots to do and see in this area. Some include Bungee Jumping, Chobe National Park, Elephant Ride Entry to Victoria Falls, National Park Flight over the Falls Flying Fox Helicopter over the Falls, Horse Riding Microlight over the Falls, Night Game Drive Rafting and Boarding Combo Rafting on the Zambezi, Swim with Elephants, Gweru Walk with Lions.

The famous runner Zole Budd originated here.

The climate is hot.
