I have had this discussion with judges. They allow long manes in jumpers, but not hunters. The argument I was given is that it is a sign of respect to honor the tradition. Most will permit a single braid, but you will be docked points. I'm on your side, I never could hack off a great mane.

I have taken my pony who has a long mane to small club shows. I french braided him for that. I'd like to think at a schooling level, you could french braid it down the centre. Aslong as the braid is neat and tight, I don't see why it would be a problem .

nope. I've seen it myself. There is nothing wrong with a running braid, or the scalloped..Hunter is picky..I would check the rule book, nothing I researched on mentioned it being "illegal" for someone not to do a hunter braid, so that is why I am sticking with it probably being fine.<br />

I show, and my opinion I follow the norm in some aspects, and my own ideas in others. I follow the rules and regulations in attire, and then do what I want with the rest. I ask my coach for advise, and with that information make up my show attire.

So do you think in canada, a running braid is acceptable for the hunter ring? I have never seen anything but hunter braids and I am not sure if this is regulation or just the norm and no one has ever questioned it. I know the hunter world is a bit ..pretentious i guess you could say when it comes to appearances lol

I third (fourth?) a running braid if you decided to show and don't wish to pull or shorten your horse's mane. Just practice, practice, practice it until you can do it neatly and it's unlikely to become undone. You may lose a point or two from some stickler judges but most consider ANY braid better than no braid.

well I never have cared too much about what others think, but I really also don't want to ruffle too many feathers. We have a great farm in Venice, Fox Lea, with schooling shows just an hour from here. I don't know that much about showing but will check with my instructor and see if maybe they would not put me and my horse in jail there for a mane and of course I/m going to learn how to braid in the most inoffensive way.

I actually read an article not long ago in a major horse mag (cannot find now) that addressed this same issue. I need to find that and read it again.
