Oh, I love this, though there are people in my neck of the woods who would faint at the idea of deliberately driving a horse over even soft rubber ostacles.....but if you teach horses it's "no big deal" in the training arena, that could prevent a crash in competition, no? I also tie plastic grocery bags to my paddock posts---plenty of room for the horses to get away from them--so I have to worry less about them panicking if a blowing bag showed up while they are in harness.
What's it like to drive tandem? I can never get a hold of the feeling of it. Do you hold the reins the same as one-three abreast? Is it similar to the unicorn hitch?
Love the videos, and I am forever getting new ideas to help my horse become more confident and less scared of objects we take for granted...even something as simple as cones, mailboxes, and flags. Please keep them coming!
I love watching your videos. I use the same type of bomb proofing techniques on my driving ponies. I drive with a loose rein also and they are trained to voice commands. I just don't see the need to be on the mouth.
