Had a lesson on Wednesday on how to long rein, Belle was fab at it and I was reasonably good at it too, however, am curious as to what all you regular long reiners use?
The RI who I had the lesson from is an 'intelligent horsemanship' trainer, she got us going in her dually head collar as she said she doesn't like to use a bridle in case the horse goes off on one and gets jagged in the mouth with a bit, so as I don't own a dually and really can't afford one at the moment do you think I could long rein using my bitless bridle? Sorry for the dumb q's I'm certain Belle would be just fine in her bitted bridle as she's not really given to 'going off on one' but as I have my bitless bridle anyway thought I might try.
