Ok, first off some of you have seen that I am open about how I am not good in a saddle. At least I don't feel I am. I have some crappy balance (pssst..it's called out of shape and overweight)and my own confidence issues (been thrown a time or two and had a few concussions and broken ribs).Anyhow...I need a few ideas on this trail issue. My mare used to be a bolter. She'd spook then spin, and off like a shot. She's gotten better but there are times when I feel she may do it again. I need to know a couple ideas so when one doesn't work I can swap it up to a different one instantly.Scenario: The trail is narrow. Trees on both sides. Ditches on both sides also so I cannot go out into the woods. (this is a true trail). Way up ahead is a sign showing the trail intersection.This sign is nice and white and is about 2 feet long.There is no way but straight ahead or spin around and go back. Walking straight toward this sign has my mare shuddering and head high.
