Re: [RC] how to keep your seat / correct two-point - A. PerezA recent post that mentioned correct two-points reminds me of one of my pet theories: people who tend to fall off spend too much time in/are only comfortable in 'two-point'. I see a great many hunt-seat riders who are ALWAYS in two-point if they are moving faster than a walk. So many of these riders do not SIT DOWN on their horse when it starts going too fast, acting up etc. It is essential to SIT if you are trying to get a horse under control or to stay on during a spook. I think many folks ride in two-point becuase they are unable to SIT their horses gaits... something that should be practiced! ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag ============================================================ Riding alone is when you teach a horse all the "tools" and "cues" he needs to handle the trail, to hold a speed, deal with hills, etc. It's also where you develop the "bond" that causes him to "defer" to you before losing his cool. ~ Jim Holland ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
