3-D of Michigan was established in 1997 by a group of horse people who wanted to expand the concept of competitive barrel racing to other speed events.
3-D of Michigan strives to be an organization that is family-oriented and appeals to all riders, young of old, professional or beginners.
We are working on a number of new shows this year and hope to have more added money shows than last year. Our sponsors help us to accomplish this.
The 3-D format gives horses and riders at all levels the opportunity to compete for prizes and awards. The 3 divisions are determined by using the fastest time in a class and adding a pre-determined increment to that time to determine the 2nd and 3rd divisions.
By establishing a 3-D association we give all riders the opportunity to compete in more than one event for money that used to be available only to the top riders.
