I didn't read all the discussion on the new forum but it looks fine to me.
Question, did I forget a password?

Hope this is an appropriate discussion for this list.  A word to the wise
and a tip to offer.  Be careful with pleasure show cones courses, some of
them are not well designed and are very difficult for novice drivers to
drive and punishing for green horses.  Give it the golf cart test when it's
set up.  If it doesn't flow in a golf cart you can't drive it with a green
horse.  Make it difficult by making the clearance a minimum amount not by
making the course twisty/tight.

Whooo hoo, man you got that right...   I just went to Mule Days up in
Bishop, CA to help out a friend.  I couldn't believe the cones course!  Lets
just put it politely that it was appropriate for a mini and not the big
guys.  However, on that note, a great many of the competators went 'clean'
on balls, but EVERYONE had a break of pace due to the configuration of cones
& distances between sets.  I was upset, but that's just me....the mule
people to their credit just shruged and said at least this year they put
NUMBERS on the cone sets!
