Shires Daisy Rein-Black One Size

Product Information

Balanced Support Reins are a newer type of rein with a patented design that sets them apart from daisy and grass reins. They are designed to let the rider control the length of the reins to stop their horse from lowering its head to graze while riding, which can be dangerous. Grass reins can be a useful tool for controlling grazing behaviour while riding and promote good head carriage. They are an additional set of straps that are attached to the girth, pass through the bit rings and are then attached to the saddle.

To the part where you say you let go of the reins completely, don't do that. I know it is hard to, and I know that bad habits are hard to break. For an experienced rider who wants to correct grazing the daisy or grass reins will provide an adequate solution. For the novice rider, someone with a weaker grip or for an enhanced comfort experience and for both horse and rider the Balanced Support Reins offer a step up from these two options. If he were leaning, ie just heavily hanging on your daughters hands, as if she is holding the whole weight of his head - its leaning and is a schooling thing for both him and her. Some people think side reins - others the daisy rein? I'm leaning more towards daisy rein as it's designed more for this (albeit in terms of them putting head down for grass, although this is happening in a grass free school!).If he is pulling down very sharply, ie yanking the reins out of your daughters hands, it would be snatching - snatching the reins off her. Its a very cheeky pony maneuver! ( thats ofc since you have ruled out pain) We still have the little monkey , she is 21 now, she is perfect on the lead rein and I drive her aswell.

When considering whether the daisy, grass or Balanced Support Reins are the right option for you and your horse it’s important to consider both rider and horse’s ease, comfort and what you want to achieve.

He corrected me again, and said to make sure my elbows stay at my side, with my thumb and index fingers holding the reins tightly *with a loose and relaxed middle finger, ring finger and pinky finger*So, lets take this as a learning experience - this mare deserves praise as well because she's teaching you - to become a more confident rider and a more determined rider. Maybe not at this point, but one day you'll see that. I am going to suggest, maybe riding her only when you have others with you - to help you become more confident and stronger. And, when you are alone - maybe ride another horse who is allows you to relax and just enjoy yourself? Sometimes he still Roots, and when I feel him about to, I drive inside leg into outside rein, tighten my core and hold myself so he cannot jeapordize my position - and I make him work. I suggest that you also look at a bit that will enable a 'one rein stop' safely without pulling the rings through the ponies mouth. Either a full cheek or tom thumb snaffle or french link. Daisy reins are useful for small children who don't have the upper body strength to outsmart cheeky ponies as they dive for grass. They can be a safety measure to put in place/if/when needed.
