Re: [RC] Ponying - Ed & Wendy Hauser

"...snaffles, kimberwickes, bits without shanks, just don't work well for
one-handed riding..."

I have found that it is just the opposite: Shanked bits don't work well for
two handed riding.  Any attempt to direct rein with a curb will result in
the curb chain going tight and signaling a stop.

My current horses neck rein fine in snaffles, and they also direct rein when
asked.
