Susan Deakin replied to Stephanie Blanchard's discussion 'Jumping Problem'
You have gotten lots of good advice here! I'd like to add a little. You are jumping ahead of your horse in this picture. Your upper body is way too far forward and your lower leg has fallen back. Horses that have riders who do this will…

Yes, the high Arab blooded horses CAN be handfuls!!! I had a 7/8 Arab 1/8 ASB that made me into an advanced rider--I had no choice. Since then I've learned delicacy with contact which really helped with a super reactive full Arab I rode. I do…

I've been thinking about your TB and you. I looked at your pictures (love your part Arab!!!) and I see no reason to suspect your hands--no one with horrible hands could get an Arabian blooded horse go so prettily in hand. So your hands must be…

I'm trying my arabians D-ring french link but her bit is a d-ring rubber korsteel snaffle. The noseband has about 2-3 fingers of room and she started it with her rubber bit. She perfers runner bits as she has also been ridden in a loose ring…

Jackie Cochran replied to Stephanie Blanchard's discussion 'Sticking Tongue out'
Horses with thick tongues often do not like thick bits. What does your bit look like? Is it a snaffle? Does it have two or three pieces in the mouthpiece? Do you use a noseband? Which type? Do you make the noseband really tight or do you leave the…

Have you looked at any of the Myler bits? They are curved as well. They also have independent side action. There are many different types available. I have the Low Port Comfort Snaffle and my little Arabian seems to like it. They are fairly…

I'll try it. Though my bit seems to have quite a curve but it seems really thick though it's plastic

Jackie Cochran replied to Stephanie Blanchard's discussion 'Sticking Tongue out'
The mouthpieces of the JP Korsteel bit curve a great deal more than the regular Korsteel bits. The regular bits will lay out flat on a table, the JP's curve upward. This gives the tongues A LOT of room. Another thing you might want to play with…

Jackie Cochran replied to Stephanie Blanchard's discussion 'Sticking Tongue out'
Have you tried the JP bits by Korsteel.? Their mouthpieces are curved, giving the tongue more room and relief from pressure. I have had good results with thick tongued Arabians with these bits, both single jointed and double jointed snaffles. Just…

try riding her in a hackamore, bitless bridle, side pull or even just a halter. See if that is the problem, if the bit is the problem then I would advise staying with one of those, if it isn't I do not know what to advise you, what kind of bit…
