I would say that you would need a bridle that has a crown piece (in front of the ears) A strap behind the ears and a throat latch (under the neck), this would ensure that while turning a barrel that the head stall wouldnn't come flying off.

Most nylon bridles are made this way, and some leather ones as well, (although these are generally mush more expensive.)

What is the pattern for barrel racing?

The pattern for barrel racing is simple, and goes like this: 1. leave the starting gate and head towards the far side of the barrel to the right. 2. go around the barrel to the right and head up the the right side of the barrel that was to the left of the starting gate. 3. go around this barrel to the left, then head up to the right side of the point of the triangle and go around to the left. 4. race to the finish line!


How do you keep a cowboy hat on head when you are barrel racing?

Most people I know hold the reins in one hand and keep the hat on their head with their other hand. If you can't do that, maybe pin it down with bobby pins...? Build up to it, but when just learning about barrel racing, I suggest you don't use a cowboy hat just yet. ;)

Where did the saying cash on the barrel head originate?

A barrel head is the top flat side of a barrel. Picture a sea port and a ship is delivering barrels of salt or tar or some other item. The seller and the buyer stand facing each other with a barrel between them and strike a deal. The cash is put on the barrel, the seller takes the cash and the buyer takes the barrel after he paid for it "on the barrel head".
