i will ride in the bitless.
today, i rode with the bit in. and it was exactly the same as prior to the move - kangaroo hopping in trot and little hope of contact in walk.
this despite the nice work she'd been doing on longlines (mind, that was bitless...)
Friend was there watching ... she said she wouldn't have the patience!
i did wish i'd taken the bitless over with me, could have swopped over, but too far to go back and pick it up!
and i'd forgot partner was going out (to see a badger sett, apparently) tonight so who knows if we'll eat ....

can't wait to hear how she goes in the bitless
Oh how disappointing for you Claire, hope the bitless brings better results!!
At this rate you will have to carry your whole kit of tack to the arena each time you ride. *lol* Do hope you sort it all out sooner than that.
Hey, at least you got on...better than me. *G*
well, but if it gets it sorted, jean. Some people longline or do inhand work before they ride ....
actually, that reminds me - i did that after i got off (without stick, but still) and of course molly was immediately on the bit, poll highest point, etc... pah
It must be frustrating but dont lose heart the move is very recent and bound to have set her back a bit.
Agreed that the recent move won't be helping matters, you have my sympathy there! And hopefully the bitless will be a welcome opportunity for Molly to work without so much hippity-hop!
Lucky Molly that she has such a patient Mum!! Fingers crossed for bitless.
