Matt had his first polo lesson tonight. The polo school is about 45 minutes away in Ohio, right on the PA border.
The farm was beautiful and had a lot of friendly beasts.
They have at least 20 horses.
Matt started out in the arena working on the basics. Of course his only concern was, "When do we get on the horse?"
Just learning how to hold the mallet properly is tough. It's heavy.
Then he was the goalie.
Back to the barn to round up the horses for dinner. They were really hungry.
Matt finally met Lisa.
She's about 27 years old and extremely gentle.
Back to the arena.
He handled Lisa all by himself. It was very impressive.
Learning how to do a backhanded swing.
He's afraid of soccer and baseball, but put him on a horse and he's fearless.
