Hey Richard I have started the 20 days, and have learned a lot.  Looking back at some of the other colts I have started I believe that I clucked and pushed too much and didn't release that pressure fast enough.  Thanks for that lesson.

On another not how long of a rope do you use for the neck rope that you run through the snaffle bit?  And where do you tie the knot for your hand to stop or is it different depending on the horse?
