Last year I was riding a horse that hadn’t been ridden in a week. She was really hyper. so my trainer and I lunged her. I thought this would get all of the bad energy out of her because she was bucking like crazy. When we were done I got on her. She had been a little antsy while tacking her up and had gotten out of her pasture when I was trying to catch her. So when I got on her we were just trotting around. Then she saw a chicken and spooked. Of course she bucked and I landed on my head. Then the horse came over to check on me when I was in the ground to see if I was ok. This made me feel better. I was all right but i had a few scrapes and bruises. Thankfully I was wearing my Troxel helmet or I could have been REALLY hurt.
