Bump Anyone?

Hi, Anyone out there in the South GA area? Looking for a driving buddy. I know there is a group in the Macon area, but that is really too far. I am just outside of Albany. Kathy

Minimor, I can't find anyone who sells nylon extenders. I am going to order the traces and extenders from Ozark. Did you order the mini or the pony traces for you taller horses?

Can someone tell me how long the traces should be for a 55" shaft? I am not sure how they are measured. I also would like to know where I can purchase them. Disney horse, I can't really take a picture until I get longer traces. Right now the shafts are way to far up on the horse because the...

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking about getting another, shorter pair, not shortening them. This is a wooden easy entry that I assembled, so replacing the shafts won't be hard. As long as its ok for the horse, I will go ahead and try the extenders. Right now the shafts are too far up on...

The shafts are 55" and the horse is 36-37".

Happy to say I just received my new cart from Silver Penney. Can anyone tell me how much space should be between the horse and the single tree? How much is too much? This is this horse's first cart and I think I may have messed up when I measured him. If I use this cart I will have to get...

I am pretty new to driving and self taught. I am not sure that I am ready to take a horse to the Drive but would love the opportunity for learning. Are there many that attend without bringing a horse? Do you need to have the horse to attend the clinics? Thanks, Kathy

Thanks for the reply. The Pacific's are a bit out of my price range, but they are really nice looking carts. How do you like it?

I have been looking around for a moderately priced, new cart for my driving mini. I am not looking for a show cart, just a cart for back roads and trails. I really like the wooden carts at A Silver Penney Farm. I would love to hear from someone who has one. Thanks, Kathy

No pics, but I will try to take some this weekend. We drove him again today and did not have the bouncing shafts. I think it has to do with how I am using the wrap straps. One loop vs wrapping it around the the tug. Any opinions on how it should be wrapped? Also, I am not using the...

I am fairly new to driving. Today we took my mini out for a drive. When he would trot, the shafts would bounce (alot). It could very well be due to that fact that we were on a dirt road and it had been raining recently. I just wanted to make sure that it has nothing to do with how he is...

Thanks all. Another question. If I have a 31 inch mini and at 37 inch mini, can they pull the same size cart? I am going to go with the wooden wheels, 20" or 24"??

Can anyone recommend a good cart for "just for fun" driving? Some trails mostly dirt road driving. Thanks

Thank you!

Thanks for the quick reply. <<Put your trace over the end of the single tree and push the free end of the shoe string through the most outside hole. >> I will look at it when I get home, maybe that will help, but I not getting it. Do you tie the shoe string?

I purchased a used EZ entry cart. I think I am missing the pieces/ties that keeps the traces attached to the singletree. Can someone explain how the traces stay attached to the cart and what it should look like. Thanks

I purchased a gelding last year who acted very studdy for the first six months or so. I had thought "proud cut", but he is absolutely fine with the mares now.

Thanks all, I will look into the driving club first, since it is closest. Dimimore, I think Social Circle is closer to atlanta. I am about 3 hrs south of atlanta.

I am located in south ga. I am looking for driving lessons for myself and possibly one of my mini's. Does anyone know of a trainer/mentor nearby? Thanks
