I start all my young horses in the side pull bridle when teaching ground work maneuvers, such as turns on the forehand, turns on the haunches and yielding. I also use the side pull when I begin ground driving, which teaches the horse about turning, stopping and backing. Once I am riding the horse, I keep him in the side pull until he is confident at the walk, trot and canter.

If your horse has mouth problems or is over-reacting to the bit, try riding him in the side pull bridle. You will make your horse happy!
