ive had some friends helping me for a while when schooling, if youve seen any of my other threads, bonnie has a habit of locking her head and just rushing off in trot regardless of your aids.
now when bonnie brings her head up they keep shouting lower your hands!! but i tend to keep them slightly up so i get the curb action, when i lower my hands like they say, yes fair enough she may 'look lovely' but she leans and i end up fighting.
where is the right place to have my hands??
when i keep them low they are slightly wide and just bellow the level of the saddle d rings, is it just me or that incorrect??
i would normaly carry them like in the diagram bellow.
pics may help
thanks
