[QUOTE="flaboy?, post: 372096, member: 5749"] OK, been working him in the pen for a couple days a week but only for an hour or so each time. Been working on one rein stuff, direct reining, leg and heel pressure, mounting/dismounting, and standing still. Well yesterday I took him in the pen and trotted figure 8's and did the other basic's I have been working on. He did really well. I work on something I have not heard anybody else (pro's) mention but then again I don't pay to close attention to the 100's of video's and steps they take so maybe I missed it. I have the horse moving at a walk or trot and start to dismount as they are moving. As I come off the side I say "whoa". After a couple times of doing this he will now stop as I start to get off or fall off. I taught both of my last two this and it saved my butt several times and has other uses such as when ya bulldog something. So after my normal hour I rode him out of the round pen for his first ride outside. Rode a couple laps around a small area with a ton of tree's and he was a perfect gentleman. I rode him across a ditch twice and he never hesitated. I may have to announce his real name shortly and quit with the Idiot. :lol: [/QUOTE]
