Hi I'm having trouble hacking my mare , we are currently working on topline & collection and she is coming on well, the last 15 mins of my lesson yesterday I mananged to ask her to drop down to collect her self I felt like she was actively listening to me and allowing me to ride her correctly, she is a very high headed horse & very stubborn, I'm trying to get out hacking with her but if I have a loose relaxed rein her heads in the air looking around too busy to listen to me which can cause her to spook (when she's scared she bucks on the spot) it's her way of releasing pressure but if I have a tight rein she fights with me and if she spooks she reacts even worse if I have a contact on the mouth, what I find I have to do is drop the reins and bear hug her and she stops, should I wait until the communication between us is better in the school before hacking? I don't know what to do for the best? She scares the crap out of me during her moments and its knocking my confidence I don't want to give up on this as I really want to Hack, is she taking the mick, should I be stronger I don't know what to do for the best arghhhh!
