Is barrel racing dangerious

Answer 1

Horses have a mind of their own so yes any kind of horse riding could be considered dangerous but Barrel Racing is definitely going to be on the higher danger scale. I mean you're running break neck speeds around barrels if you're advanced and any fall off a horse can hurt. So yes ultimately it's dangerous but it you have the proper training, a good horse, and are safely equipped and don't try to do things in a dangerous way such as velcro or rubber band your feet to the stirrups you should have a great experience and be able to get right back on if you have the occasional fall.
