(Chuck shows this in his DVD)\u00a0 Do this<br \/>\nat the fence.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as they take a step,&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Walk away!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Walk them around in a circle and then come<br \/>\nback to it.<\/p>\n<p>Then ride back up to the fence.<\/p>\n<p>Remember you don&#8217;t have to push your horse<br \/>\nhalf way down the arena.\u00a0 People often get over-<br \/>\nanxious doing this and mess it up.<\/p>\n<p>The key is to quit while you&#8217;re winning.<\/p>\n<p>Get this accomplished in both directions.<\/p>\n<p>Next, get your horse walking.<\/p>\n<p>Push him over like you would in a sidepass.<\/p>\n<p>As the horse walks over, let him walk out<br \/>\nof it.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re working to the left, continue<br \/>\nto the left.\u00a0 Thus, you circle left.<\/p>\n<p>The horse walks over more and then steps<br \/>\nout of it but you still go to the left.<\/p>\n<p>A very common mistake lots of people make<br \/>\nhappens right here &#8211; and that is this.<\/p>\n<p>The horse is going one direction and then<br \/>\nwhen he turns he gets surprised and goes the other<br \/>\ndirection.<\/p>\n<p>The horse wasn&#8217;t ready for that.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t do that.<\/p>\n<p>Now the hind and front end ar moveable and<br \/>\nnow you can step the horse over one or two steps.<\/p>\n<p>From there, you can build on it every day.<\/p>\n<p>After this is accomplished, ride at an<br \/>\nangle to the fence.<\/p>\n<p>Tip the nose the opposite angle you rode<br \/>\nat, then push the horse to that opposite side<br \/>\nonce the nose is tipped with the outside rein and<br \/>\noutside leg.<\/p>\n<p>Remember to release.<\/p>\n<p>The key here is to have forward momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t stop and THEN get him to turn.<\/p>\n<p>Make it a continuous motion.<\/p>\n<p>Also, don&#8217;t lean into the turn.\u00a0 You&#8217;ll<br \/>\nget in your horse&#8217;s way.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, don&#8217;t lean forward.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll make him front end heavy and hard<br \/>\nto turn.<\/p>\n<p>Again, you&#8217;d get in your horse&#8217;s way.<\/p>\n<p>Do this every day&#8230;BUT!&#8230;only in<br \/>\nincrements of 4 to 5 times.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because too many times in a row could<br \/>\nworry and\/or sour your horse to it.<\/p>\n<p>Some horses even panic.<\/p>\n<p>If so, only do it 1 or 2 times and go do<br \/>\nsomething else and come back to it and do it once<br \/>\nor twice again.<\/p>\n<p>Keep it as low stress as you can.<\/p>\n<p>Okay.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s more to tell you so I&#8217;ll save it<br \/>\nfor my next email because this is a lot to think<br \/>\nabout for now.<\/p>\n<p>Again, I urge you to go ahead and read about<br \/>\nChuck&#8217;s information by clicking the following:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-nesmith.html<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been wanting to teach your horse<br \/>\nsliding stops and spins you&#8217;ll really enjoy<br \/>\nChuck&#8217;s video.\u00a0 He&#8217;s an excellent teacher.<\/p>\n<p>Enough for today.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a lot to chew on.<\/p>\n<p>Stay safe out there&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie<\/p>\n<p>P.S.
