It's so nice to see a trainer show the bad with the good. So many times you see these tutorials never showing the ugly.

Is it safe to use this technique on a 18 year old who knows the pattern but needs a tune up

Do you like training and competing in split reins or rope/whole reins?

[@brianwideman2342]

It's physically impossible for a horse to not be hollowed out if their poll is above their wither.

I think she knows what she’s talking about over you

[@ChessHorseTraining]

A horses head does not indicate being hollow.

yes, every horse (barrel horse or not) should be able to learn this.
