The Bag Drag

Horse and rider teams during the American Competitive Trail Horse Association (ACTHA) The Horse Club event in Lakeside on April 3. Teams are required to negotiate various timed obstacles on the trail while being judged. Points are for their obstacle performance.

Obstacle number 1 - Drag. In this case, a rope tied to a bag of cans. The requirement was to drag the bag of cans from one cone to the second cone, pivoting their horse halfway so that the horse backs the rest of the way (pulls) to the second cone.
