I have 42 panels coming 12' long. I'm trying to decide how is best to set them up.
What are your opinions on:
Square vs. round corners in an arena?
Square arena vs. oblong?
The area will be used for working on starting young horses and exercising - no jumping of anything like that. I ride primarily Western but hope to learn English one day.
One of the panels is crunch pretty good from a falling tree - so really is only useful as a gate - so figure I've got 41 good 12' panels and a bow gate.
I could make the arena 10 panels each side, or I could make it oblong with 9 on each end and 12 per side.
Any suggestions on a good size? Either way I've got room for a barrel pattern of standard size per AQHA regulation....
Too excited - too much to think of.
