RE: [RC] Tailing question - Mike SherrellThanks. I'll check it out. Once in a while going up a hill not in a race the trail becomes ambiguous and he could use instructions. I was thinking of "gee" and "haw" but I don't remember which means left and which means right. Don't want to mess with tradition.

Normally, you don't need to "steer" on a trail...or at least I haven't found the need to do that. It's a little hard to use aids when you're hanging on to his tail up a steep hill. You just want him to walk in a straight line. Tailing is basically a form of "driving", but you typically only have one rein. I taught Sunny go left or right by "neck reining" on his butt and pulling his tail to the side to "sidepass" him in the direction I wanted to go, but it was of so little value, didn't bother on any of the other horses.

Assuming this is correct, what are the instructions used to tell the horse to go left and right?
