Default Cowboy Polo

One of the events we attended while on vacation was a cowboy polo game. Such fun! It was held in Yampa Colorado where the main street of town is still a dirt road. There are 450 people in town and all of them were either here or at the one bar in town.

Now that's creative! I've never seen soccer played quite that way! No stuffed shirts at this polo match. Looks like you're making the most of the summer you have. Looking forward to seeing more.

They look serious in playing cowboy polo. But it looks like you had fun taking shots at them. The pictures are very sharp and well in focus. I've been on the back of a water bufallo but not from a horse. It must be really fun. Thanks for sharing.
