Went thru the same thing a few weeks back Allan.
Went home for bird day and my nephew wanted to show me a new colt he bought. It is a big fellow...really big for a colt.
Anyway, he said he had a fellow coming over to break it for him.
Shoot, that's no big deal...broke a hundred of them. Right!
Pitched me in a fence once, hit the barn once...ok...we'll take him to the corn field...softer ground. Finally got him to work a little bit and he was doing good. That darn animal went straight up. Standing still...straight up and came down on his right side and tried to grind me in the dirt.
Had he been my horse he would have been a little bruised when I finally got out from under him...but I just told the boy that was enough for an old man for one day. The horse has a lot of spirit and maybe the guy coming over can do a better job.
I felt so bad the next morning it took a large dose of tynoel and a lot of coffee to get going. Still got black and blue all over me.
Guess I will just stick to the old tractors...they have a stop switch.
I did not feel old...till that...heck, I am only 59...dad was breaking horses at 70.

Ya darned right.

Watched my grandpa wringin' 'em out at the age of 74. Just hope he was busy with other things and wasn't watchin' down on me Friday.

That was totally traumatic! :>)
