[RC] buying horses sight unseen - Ed Kilpatricksorry for firing that blank. let me try again.
it depends on what you are buying the horse for, what your particular skills are, etc. if you buy a horse that is not well trained, then you need to be able to finish out the training, or have it done.
if you are buying a horse to ride right away, then i think you should try it out, of course. you cant beat a test drive to see what the horse is really like.
i bought my andalusian stallion as a weanling after finding him on an internet ad. i drove from florida to ohio to get him. the sale was contingent upon a vet exam, and i had the right to back out of the deal if there was anything i didnt like about the colt. ed
