The rule is 919.6. Leverage Devices All rings, terrets and/or other devices which have an extreme leverage effect on the Reins or Bits are forbidden at any time within the Driving Event Location. A BHDTA judge would need to confirm but I believe this means anything (including girth/bit/hand long lines: passoa: too tight side reins) | ||

You mean using them as draw reins? I assumed so- my sec D goes lovely after a session on the lunge set up like you say, but I always assumed they were in the category of training aid or you'd be seeing more of me this season... He's currently going like a stuck pig!! :D Looking forward to te answer here- I was advised to try lunging him in draw reins after a lesson at a training weekend, and it most definitely works wonders for him! | ||

If you run long lines through terrets to bit to girth? I know no training aids are allowed at any competitions but is this. It's not actually another gadged on the horse to act in any such way as a training tool. Your kind thoughts please |
