Mounting a horse from the left side originated from soldiers wearing a sword. Soldiers wore their sword on their left side if they mounted from the right side it would get tangled up in their leg when they swung over.

I’ve chatted with Chris at artillery ridge campground. He was very nice to talk with. Good show
👍
Chris would run a great business meeting. He didn't let you get off topic nor for too long! He lives pretty near me...good show.
Haha yeah. He lead me on this one.
I love this episode! Excellent topic. I always wondered how they trained horses to go into battle. I’m definitely buying the book!
Hope you enjoy it!
So much I never realized!!
Me too! I really enjoyed doing this one.

Thank you
Great subject. I will definitely buy this book. Also thanks for answering my questions.
Any time!
