[RC]   right-left diagonals - Lynda K Thompson
 
I have a couple of comments and a question.  I am left handed and my last
two endurance horses used the left diagonal.  The horse I bought last
March uses the right diagonal.  Every time I try to use the left he
either pops me back over or he interferes.  The last training ride I took
him on about a month ago I was practicing the left diagonal and we seemed
to be getting more comfortable at it and he got a splint behind his knee
above the tendon.  Now he's done for this year.  My question is about the
splint--how long do they take to heal?  Will it be a problem in the
future?  Does he have an endurance career or should I move on since I've
never even gotten him to a ride and he's already hurt himself?  Thanks
for the help.
Lynda
