Re: [RC] [RC] ? Thanks Angie and John - RUNAWAYWOMI don't like the number of pulls, but I would like to know the story of Sue Summers who pulled "a healthy horse that she wanted off of." I did that once too because A: I did so many circles on this "healthy horse" I felt like I had been in a tornado all day and B: It was happy hour!!! I hope she had a better ride. LISA, SUE SUMMERS WAS RIDING MY HORSE F.M. SPIRIT WIND AND HIS CRI AT 72 MILES WAS 64/88 SO HE PULLED. SHE RODE WITH ME AND SHAR-PO ALL DAY AND NEVER SAID SHE WANTED OFF HIM. SHE HAD TO RIDE HIM WITH DOUBLE REINS AT THE START AS HE IS VERY STRONG, BUT BY THE 3RD LOOP SHE HAD JUST THE SNAFFLE REIN. I THINK THERE IS A LITTLE MISCOMMUNICATION HERE. ROXANNE CICCONE AND SHAR-PO MY TEVIS HOPEFUL ============================================================ Riding alone is when you teach a horse all the "tools" and "cues" he needs to handle the trail, to hold a speed, deal with hills, etc. It's also where you develop the "bond" that causes him to "defer" to you before losing his cool. ~ Jim Holland ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
