I like the idea of conditioning a horse to "stop" when he/she gets scared 
and to look to me to guide them through it.
I am thinking about all the times I could of fallen off this last month and 
did not and wonder if the ortho-flex cutback had anything to do with it (the 
reinforced Knee area) vs the saddle I used yesterday, no knee rolls, 
straight leg western.  What are bucking ?? thingy's for a saddle?
JJ is very honest, and his jumps to the side are only 5 feet vs 10 so I can 
ussually hang on.  I agree with the other posters that I had absolutely no 
time to prevent this spook...again, I wonder if I had been in the other 
saddle would my seat have been more secure and I would of sat it out.  Any 
opinions on this?
