What are y'all working on and how do you track and measure progress?

In addition to trying to figure out lead changes, I've been working on hobble training on the older horses and working a couple youngsters at the gate. Riding a couple at a time made me wonder how/if everyone else has trouble tracking progress and next steps.

Any of you all have methods you've used to roadmap progress on a horse and then track progress? I'm thinking about building out a notebook with a planning section (somewhat like Mr. Richard Boatwright's steps he outlines in the ES20 programs) and a notes part to write down where the horse was when I stepped off. I'm old and forget what happened and/or what I need to work on shortly thereafter.

We use the attached goal sheet(s) for the objectives/plan for each horse (which helps in not getting lost while riding).

Hey there Benjamin I'm not Mr. Boatwright but I like the 5/16 a lot. They take a super long time to break in but once broken in they're hard to beat. Another caveat is that if you're pulling heavy stuff on trailers they're a little weak. We just broke a brand new one last week doing that and I've heard similar feedback from several others.

He has come out of it. I've not had him do it in the last 10 rides or so now. I still regularly check him for soreness but I still can't really explain it.
