When training young horses "There are many types of bits for many different disciplines, but the severity of ALL bits lies in the hands holding them."
Monty RobertsIt is not good enough to get your horse to do what you want. It is far better to cause your horse to want to do it.
Monty RobertsAlways work to cause your horse to follow the path of least resistance. Then place an opening for him to pass through so that the path of least resistance becomes the direction you want him to go in.
