Re: [RC] TTEAM Balance Rein - Susan Young CaseyOH! The balance rein that the original poster spoke of is completely different than the balance strap some of us have referred to. I'm curious as to why lifting up on the balance rein or neck lariat lightens the front end. What signal does that send? I've heard of this...and have even seen it in hindsight. But, I don't understand. Several foxhunters have said lifting up on the martengale strap works in the same fashion once you train the horse to it. Comes in handy when your hands are full and you need a little half halt before a jump. I LOVE this learning stuff! Thanks for the responses so far and I look forward to learning more! ===== Susan Young Casey, Princess of Pink, LIW, RRHA, RHS Semper Obliquo (Always aside) Glenndale Grace Farm, Ft Gibson, Oklahoma U.S.A.
