Hi!!
Off to PC camp tomorow and owner of horse i am taking has ordered two bits of ebay after doing some experimenting so we bought the waterford fulmer and that is what shes goes best in generally but we decided hunting i needed something with more brakes! so got a waterford dutch gag. He has given me two reins so i presume he wants me to use both (was thinking about doing XC in it at camp) but how exactly are you supposed to use these bits as i always thought you should use two reins, with one on the snaffle ring and one on the bottom, or with roundings, but i see people increasingy using just the one rein, what is correct??
also if i'm using two reins, and one is plaited and one isnt, which one goes on top? if it matters, and if i'm using a martingale, does that go on the top or bottom rein??
thanks in advance!!
