Tommy explains why he likes to drive off and use a wall as his turn back when he is transitioning from a snaffle to a bridle. This allows him to let the horses think for themselves on how to control the cow and to think their way through the turn. He talks about the benefits of the 100ft x 100ft arena and what type of cattle you need to use when driving off to make it beneficial for your horse.
