Any time I feel stuck in the riding/training of my horses (hot older pony and chill young OTTB) I pull out the long lines. The OTTB took to them the first go round which is a testament to what an awesome filly she is. I feel like I can see how my horses move and better visualize our issues under saddle. Then next day back in the saddle I go! I genuinely think both my horses, especially the TB, enjoy long lining and ground driving.
I like them better than side reins but I think that’s just my personal preference. For me the long lines have a more dynamic feel.
Anyone else?
