I need to know how far from the fences in the arena to set the barrels. I’ve trained one horse for barrels but where I was there wasnt a fenced arena, I have recently moved to a new place with a fenced arena and starting over with 2 new horses on barrels.
thanks a bunch

Lynne,
I would definitely try to keep my barrels at least 21 feet off the fence for the 1st and 2nd barrels and 35-40 feet for the 3rd barrel. Personally, I prefer to train my horses with any fences, so the farther away from the fence, the better.
