Supplies & training equipment for an (almost) yearling?
This past year with my yearling I used a nylon surcingle (?sp), and a LOOSE set of side reins, in addition to TWO lunge lines for driving lines. I have given her about 3 weeks off over the Christmas Holidays, but when I start back to work on Thursday, I've got to find her neoprene splint boots (they seem to have gotten misplaced at a show we went to in December). I think I am going to have some cotton driving reins made in one piece (like a monster set of roping reins), so that driving will be a little easier, I found the lunge lines a little tricky as we changed directions. You didn't mention lunge whip. Remember to keep her lunging (and all training) sessions short and sweet, and go in as big a circle as possible to avoid torquing those legs.
