You anchor one hand/with rein on the neck-literally-grabbing mane. With the other hand/rein , you do a series of -straight up- pulls. Always up, NOT out. And always short, strong pulls, giving the release..hopefully for the horse to also release its attitude of "I'm going to go" without your permission.<br /><br />This works well as it does not influence headset, and also, it does not pull the bit through the mouth...the anchored hand insurers that. <br />I used it yesterday, as we tandem trotted-toward home-surefire for uppity reactions! Only had to do it twice!<br /><br />Hope you and the mare have a lovely weekend!...<br />Do you know where"HARDY CREEK"is?allhorsestuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301081722884351021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4874457713393097494.post-40749059877166992912011-05-05T19:47:12.631-07:002011-05-05T19:47:12.631-07:00Thanks!

Well the bit, I tend to stay away from talking about bits because everyone has an opinion..but since Grace was so naughty on our trail ride in her level 1 myler D ring, she had to use a loose ring twisted wire Snaffle for a couple of arena sessions.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05989090935810654576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4874457713393097494.post-9765073069158079142011-05-05T13:31:23.772-07:002011-05-05T13:31:23.772-07:00Lovely!
