Tim McQuay - Pro Tip: Turn Around

[@jacmeespie]

This so-called pro demonstrates Rollkur or Low, Deep and Round to perfection! This parody of turn around is dilettantish. Using draw reins, and running reins, the horse does not flex properly at the poll, but rather flexes improperly at a lower neck vertebrae. This practice results in a horse that is working in a "headset" or "outline" that, to the inexperienced observer appears acceptable, but the horse has no self-carriage or suppleness and does not properly engage its hindquarters. It was this improper flexion that ruined the reputation of their inventor, Sir William Cavendish, 1st Duke of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. That being said, competent riders who correctly and tactfully use the draw and running reins can have success in correcting specific problems in horses that require retraining to get rid of bad habits. These are most often the riders who use the equipment the least, because they can achieve correct results through good riding instead of gadgets.

You need draw-reins to teach a turn on the haunches?!! Basic training fail. And TENT YOUR DAMN SADDLE PAD.
