Poll Recap: Starting Horses Under Saddle

Starting a young horse under saddle can be a daunting task. Each horse has their own personality and learning curve, requiring trainers to tailor a training program to each animal. 
 
In last week’s online poll, we asked our readers if they have ever started a horse under saddle themselves. Seven hundred people responded and we’ve tallied the results!
 
Of the 700 respondents, 522 (75%) said yes, they have started a horse under saddle themselves. The remaining 178 (25%) individuals said they have not.
