control @ride start

[Momma244@aol.com]

reading the NATRC thread on starting a ride with an out of control horse. I 
see it on most rides.  It has happened to me more times than I want to 
remember.  I have prayed for an everest to conquer, started last, walked for 
the first milesoff the horse, wedged  in a group of slow nice riders, walked 
backwards, and have put a lot of long slow miles beforehand.  Any ideas would 
be appreciated. The horse seems quiet but I know what happens .
