thanks so much for the help.. I did try to rise my left hand whenever he tilted his nose to the right, with a bit left leg on..and it worked..thanks again.

hi, great informatuon..but i am a bit confused, as one said to raise the right hand, and the other said to raise the left hand..he is tilting to the right, nose to the right and left ear low. i will try tomorrow, but now I am confused..what do I do ?

I do lunge him quickly every day before I get on him, as he is always full of energy. I lunge him with the side reins on and that helps a bit..if one day I dont lunge him, before riding..his head tilting is much worse..

thanks..will try rising my right hand..I only put the drawreins on him once, but will try this new way of riding. thanks again
