Inconsistent contact isn’t always a training problem — it often begins with discomfort or imbalance. Horses naturally seek softness and stability; when the contact becomes unclear, their behaviour changes accordingly.
Common Causes
Bit instability
Noseband pressure
Asymmetry in the bridle
Muscular tension in the poll or neck
What a Professional Assessment Does
