This game sounds alot like one of the games our club would play, where we would spear a ring placed at different heights, and areas. It was fun and need skills.
I am 20. And i mastered tent pegging when i was 16, in my high school in Pakistan. Now i'm in USA. And unfortunately nobody plays it here. I wish i had somebody to play it with here.
possibly the best sport to be tried by myself after looking at several sports this is one of the most exciting things i have tried with out being fully committed this allows me to train a horse within a period of time that is achievable for most people and maintain it with a small effort i have heard it called ballet on horse back or my favourite would be high speed dressage
Hello Mohammad and other, My name is Dr. Asim S. Malik and I have read most of the comments and glad to know that many others in the US who know about the sport and want to establish it. Ladies and Gentlemen, I am seriously working toward registering' "Tent Pegging" as a sport in the USA. As per my knowledge until 2004 this sport was recognized in the US but after 2004 I don't see any activity regarding this sport. Well, if you all who are interested, please email me back to me and let us put up a plan to move forward and register this event as a equestrian sport in the US once again. Any thoughts? My email is Asim.Malik@qlty-plus.com
An International Tentpegging federation has been recently formed at Muscat by about 22 countries those keen to know more about the sport and the organisation can contact at ssarpartap@yahoo.com
The white horse in frame at 0:08 is called Ben Hur. He was my horse when I was at Aitchison College, Lahore - the premier institute for Tent Pegging in the region. Today, we're trying to start tent-pegging in Houston, TX. You can view a picture of Ben Hur in 2001, at: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=627652887297053&set=a.627654833963525&type=3&theater
