Hi Ashley,

I’ve had success with this by following Richard’s way of sorting it by taking the horse into the round pen and working the code until they get the fresh off then returning them to the tie up place, took a few times to get results and it wasn’t a quick fix but the horse is a lot better.

not sure if that is what you have already tried when you say moving his feet

Richard Boatwright exactly what I thought it might be and it makes perfect sense, going to give it a whirl on my problem child I think

Chris Hall very common place here in the UK, in fact I have a couple around and we do use them for long reigning when breaking them for the cart.

just got me thinking as I have one that struggles with a bit hobble (sensitive whiskers and area) and this would aid not having the snaffle pull through at all!

Hey Richard, quick question, have you got a full cheek snaffle in on Luna? 

I interested to see why you chose that as I just associate it as a very English bit used for lateral control 

Cheers Steve
