If I ran at AQHA shows, it was usually in the "Open" barrel race they had, where a lot of the entry fee was put in the jackpot to the winners. I won literally tons of first place ribbons & trophies (high point trophies too) as a kid, I don't need any more dust collectors & more boxes packed full with ribbons, as I now & have for many years, train & win for just MONEY!!! I understand the difference, no problem, but where is the proof you won money with that mare?

But, I could probably look back through some of my CTBRA results & find where she's won. As she was very consistant & usually won or was in the money in barrels & poles. A well known woman in barrel racing named Peggy Hall(West, Texas) that trains & competes for a living knows, as I out run her winning horse that was in the same class race & won the CTBRA barrel race & won open poles against her on Midget. *Here*...v http://winningruns.com/vlog/?p=99 As most any one that has been barrel racing & a member of CTBRA for many years would know too....
