Bit stuck in what to try....off the badminton this weekend so opportunity to buy new bitting suggestions.
Horse is 15.2 medium weight horse, fine in the school in a hanging cheek but gets strong out hacking(mainly) and xc.
Taken him out in all sorts of snaffles and nosebands just always on my hands pulling. Tried him in a three ring dutch gag better but almost to much he fights it and not settled in it. Probably not the right thing as he has a tendancy to have a very high head carriage although fine in school etc. Tried a pelham the other day and he seemed better. He used to be used for driving and couldnt hold a canter when he came so had obviously been flat out galloped everywhere just been working to get him to settle. Doesnt want anything to harsh as gets unhappy or anthing to raise head further any ideas?
TIA
