[RC] One-rein stops - Ashley Wakeman

I was just wondering how to exactly execute a one-rein
stop, and if one-rein stops are meant as "safety
braking" for bolting, bucking, etc.?  I have tried
what I consider to be a one-rein stop on my horse and
he definitely responds better to me than if I just
close my hands on both reins.

============================================================
The very essence of our sport is doing the trail as quickly as practicable,
while keeping one's horse fit to continue.  Taking the clock out of the
equation makes it another sport altogether.  The challenge is how to keep
the sport what it is while honing our skills (both as riders and as those
in control roles) in detecting where "the edge" is for each horse so that
we don't cross it.
