[RC] rounded frame - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

I disagree with the post about first learning to frame-up your horse in a ring 
with an instructor.  As long as you do it in short, increasing increments, you 
can very easily teach your horse to collect on the trail.  It's a lot more fun 
to do it on the trail than in the ring.  I used to show, and got so bored with 
the training/practice side of things.  I don't show any more, and now train on 
the trail all the time.  Hip and shoulder, collection, side-pass, everything 
gets done while trailriding.  It does take a little longer for your horse to 
learn it well, but nobody gets bored during the learning process, and there's 
no "schedule" that has to be met.  JMHO
