I will lunge our gelding but not our mare for several reasons.
I have tried and everytime I do unless warm settled day and she had maximum turn out and not fresh as she ends up exploding and I get fractured fingers etc and even trainers have told me not to bother and loose school instead.
I would perservere but as she had a gammy knee I dont like her on a circle for long anyway and my vet has advised not to lunge for that reason so I try to do other things mixed in with my riding :wink:
I get nothing but snidey comments cos I dont lunge as if I am scared and wimping out and I should and "I will do it" :furious:
Anyone not lunge and why?
