Right I'm getting myself sorted out with my new mare and will be getting organised with lessons. But I was wondering if you knew of any exercises we can do in the meantime to help with our jumping.
The problem is that when the jumps get to a cewrtain heigh we struggle to get a stride. We get our strides and everytime without fail the mare will always try to put in a short stride as she feels she cant take off from the right spot and we do get over but its obviously not a pretty sight. Over smaller jumps we get take off spot perfect every time.
As I said I'm getting organised to getting lessons to help but wondered if you guys know of anything we can try in the meantime.
