[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 740834, member: 30902"] If you can safely ride a horse then it should be doable. The problem is you'll have to shoot from the horse. Horses are very unstable shooting platforms and in spite of what you see in the movies most of them do not like being shot off of. Also unlike the movies the last thing you want to do is shoot over or beside the horses head. Not knowing your condition or physical limitations in detail the best I can suggest on this idea is to talk to some guides and see what you can work out. Most may well be resistant due to liability fears should something happen. Riding a horse is not like sitting in a chair and generally requires a good bit of upper and lower body work to keep you centered and upright and even much more so on steep, rugged terrain like big cats tend to prefer. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
