I just got back from my usual 3 chukkers on Wednesday's at the Woodside Horse Park ... Today was a lot of Fun... I started the first chukker with my stirrups 2 holes higher than usual.. and some how it made such a big difference for me today .. it was amazing.. I think i had my stirrups too low so far, often during the plays i was losing them.. Today i didn't get that feeling at all... I got the cue on going up two holes on the stirrup leather after reading a blog entry by Tom Goodspeed on polo zone and i am glad i read that blog entry... Any how i got plenty of action today... In the first chukker i scored my first real goal :) .. it was a great sense of achievement .. 2nd chukker was just okay, 3rd chukker was pretty intense (relatively speaking) as usual.. and there were some good plays in that chukker and then was the funniest part .. i fell of the horse .. well it almost felt like i jumped off the horse because I landed on my feet, holding the horse reins, mallet and whip .. dang!!! .. Our clinic instructor was telling everyone that such falls don't count :) .. This calls for buying a beer for everyone .. ha! ha!... What a great feeling of Polo Addiction!!
