I am very excited to announce that we are officially sponsored by Meyers. I have been working with them for a while, but I am extatic to be able to make it official!
I was really struggling with saddle fit for awhile. I have 2 ISH with tough backs to fit saddles to. I bought one saddle that I thought worked only to find that it made me get left behind constantly. Then I found Meyers, and I WILL NEVER GO BACK!
I absolutely love these sadddles. I feel secure, and my horses feel nice and floaty. Their special design gives plety of spinal clearance and tends to fit the horses shoulder slope really well. I am not a saddle fitter, but I have gotten really good at checking saddle fit, and I am not lying when I say this: I have a wide tree and a regular tree saddle and between those 2 and some shimmable pads I can fit every horse in the barn. I would 100% recommend, and for a limited time, I can get you 10% off a saddle with my special link: https://commonwealthsaddles.com/collections/saddles

Message me if you are interested in a custom saddle for your horse. I would be happy to get you in touch with a rep for what I think is the best saddle on the market!

I'm a little late with the announcement, but we have a new addition to the farm! Good Faith, or Little Fae around the barn, came into the world on Saturday, April 27. Mom and baby needed a little post birth care, but both are now doing well. Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible.

Lovely 2019 mare for sale! Super brave, super sweet, no naughty business. Shes the perfect canidate for a jr or ao to bring along in a program. I think she has the potential to be a nice 3 ring horse! Currwntly showing 2'3" but I belive she has 3'3" potential. Low-mid fives.

Young horse training is in full swing for the winter, and these lovely 3yr olds are learning all the wrong ways to wear a saddle pad (and thay having random things thrown at them isn't that scary)

¡Exercise of the week!
2 trot poles to a trot jump then halt in a straight line.
Set the 2 trot poles 4'6" appart with the pole closest to the jump 9' from the jump. This should set you up to come in at a relaxed medium trot. Keep your body back but hands soft as you approach the fence. Then think about "melting" into your halt rather than bracing into the halt.

Meet the Trainer Part 1:
Hi everyone! For anyone who doesnt know me, my name is Lauren and here is a little bit about how I got to where I am today. I am the trainer/ owner at BuckWild Showjumpers LLC. I am truely blessed to have the opportunity to be able to do what I love: guiding other riders to achieving thier goals and working with young horses to develop them into the best athletes and partners for their riders they can be. My journey here was not always an easy one. I would not be here today if it werent for the other professionals, namely Kelly Kocher, Jodi Robertson, Richardo Villa, and Chris Kappler, who belived in me, pushed me and gave me the opportunity to work to learn. I worked hard to get where I am and I have a passion for providing opportunity for other aspiring athletes. I want to see others atchive their goals. I want to be an encouragement and wealth of knowledge to anyone who has dreams in this sport! I find joy in getting to coach others. Its humbling to have to opportunity to gift what I have learned to others. This sport is so much bigger than me and it is awesome to be a part of growing this sport in lives of others.

¡¡Exercise of the week!!
Set 3 ground poles 4 strides apart and work through the exercise back and forth left and right lead. Start with doing the add step 5 strides to 5 strides, focus on the balance and connection. Then do the same line 4 strides to 4 strides trying to keep the same connection but open up the stride. If all that goes well move to 5 strides to 4 strides and then 4 strides to a collected 5 strides.
