​GREEN AS GRASS BUCKLE PROGRAM

 

The Green As Grass a.k.a. GAG program, is a terrific place to get your hoofs wet. The program offers a non-competitive start to showing where riders earn points that accumulate. Once a rider wins 40 points over the course of riding in this GAG program, they graduate and earn a buckle.  Read on to find out how to get started.  

To enter into the GAG Buckle Program Riders must not have won $100 or more NRHA earnings as of Jan 1 of the current year.  Once you are entered into the GAG Buckle Program you are eligible to show in the GAG classes at the shows until you graduate and earn your buckle.

GAG Class rules
1) Riders must be current members of SMRHA to earn points and a buckle
2) We will follow the NRHA Green Rules

3) Riders may ride any horse without restriction of ownership, breed or age
4) Points are awarded based on scores above a 60, one point for every point over 60
5) Riders graduate and are awarded their buckle when he/she accumulates 40 points in the Green as Grass class. At that point they are no longer eligible to compete in the GAG class.
