I'd like to do a pay-it-forward for new members and give away some seasoned show horses.

Horses will geldings and spayed mares with PT scores of 13 or higher, 8-10yo and have 600-800 points built up already.
Such as: http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2733471

To be eligible, you must have a 2015 join date. If you have multiple accounts, I'll base this off your oldest account. Post with your join date and ID# and I'll put a horse up on buddy sales for you. This is open to the first five players who reply. If there are more, feel free to reply after five players have posted and I'll still give you a seasoned show horse, it just might not fit all of the "criteria" above.

These horses will give you a bonus in hbs of 50% of their total points every week as long as you own them and they are still alive. You'll get this bonus even if you never show the horse again, but my best suggestion would be to make sure they get shown every week (whether automatically or manually) so they can earn you more points and therefore help increase your bonus. These are horses I bred myself and have never sold, which is the best way to build your show string up in the game. I literally bred them, put them in a barn with auto shower on and "forgot" about them. Start doing this with your own herds, even if they have uneven lines, low PTs or are inconsistent and you'll start seeing the payoff in a few months time. It won't happen overnight, but it's the cheapest and easiest way to build up a nice show herd!

Lastly, I'd implore other veteran players like myself to consider paying it forward to our newer players as well. Even if it means taking someone under your wing and just answering their questions. Most of us have had some form of mentoring in the past from more experienced players and most of us can probably agree that it's really helped us out.

@Ammit and @Gael4ce maybe we could start some sort of a mentoring program for new members, even?
