Debbie, easiest way is to take a measuring tape and mark a center point, then measure 40' and set a barrel. Measure 40' from center point to directly opposite from previous barrel for second barrel. Should be a straight line, barrel - center - barrel. Then measure 40' from center and 40' from first barrel set and set a barrel. Repeat for remaining 3 barrels. When finished the barrels should form a circle and be 40' apart and 40' from center (radius of circle).
I am confused… my vet said you should ride a horse very little when they are less than 5 because their spine is still very soft, and it will cause a more severe sway back in their 20s and maybe vertebrae issues.
Great drill. Would love to see a view on paper/poster board of barrel placement. I think I have it but hard to know for sure from video. Thank you!

The horse: flexing itself...XD
i honestly don't understand this drill without a pen and paper demonstration...... i'm not understanding the "pattern" from this video
