Calib thanks pard!  Keep up the good work!

Lance J. YouTube is usually the best place to send video.  Just upload it and leave it unpublished but share the link with me (richard@b1horsemanship.com).  Google drive also works well.  

The bucking is another issue.  If this were my horse, I'd probably drop back and flank her some (if I thought she could handle it) and just ride her through it until she gave it up.  Are you able to give her some long days with a job to do?  Giving her something to do would certainly help.  I'll be on the lookout for a video.

Michael B. Just stay the course with the speed control.  If a horse wants to take off at full speed when loose, I'll keep them on a lead and change directions everytime they get to going too fast.  I can take several attempts, but eventually they learn to keep things under control and you can start turning them loose.  Just make sure to be calm and don't get frustrated and start trying to punish her.  Just cluck and let her start moving.  If she starts speeding up, just step out in front of her and ask her to change direction.  You might have to do it over and over again, but when she finally departs at a sane speed, quit for the day and pick it up again the next.  Don't rush it and don't force anything.  I'll bet she'll start slowing down for you of she doesn't have a reason to start running to begin with.   Keep me updated.🤠

Damon F. Awesome!  Can you get on our weekly lives and keep us updated?

Lance J. Without seeing a video of the behavior and what might be causing it, all I can say is to stay the course.  I've had several over the years that were similar and even though they never did anything dangerous, they never really seemed to let down either.  I have a 14 year old gelding currently that is one of the nicest riding horses I've ever had and he's like that, too.  Very tight and seems to be nervous, but absolutely safe.  I don't pick on him about it because I figure he's doing his best to be a good horse for me.  Just try to ignore it if you can and trust that what you're doing is right.  Do me a favor and keep me updated on her.  R
