Over the past times that i rode i always had a problem of not keeping the right western position. i would always have my feet turned down and sorta stitting wrong. Now that i keep my heels up and in better position my horse rides a whole lot better and communication is better to . It really makes a difference in the positon that you ride. Anyways I also even got him to back up like 4 steps. I know that it dosent sound alot but it was better then none. Also when whe just stand their and i am on his back, in about 3 to 4 min, he will start like chomping on the bit and sorta yawning and he will like spit out hay junk from his mouth. I think that why he mouths the bit it means that he wants to do go . He always had that problem of doing that . I ride in a tomb thumb bit so its not harsh at all. Maybe that is just the way he is . Is that normal for a horse to be doing that ?
