Difficult to bridle horse?

Click on the link below and check out the YouTube video on how to get your horse used to the bit (without the bit, but desensitizing the mouth) and how to train them to lower or drop their head for you.

Dropping or lowering their head is safe and puts them into a relaxed state so is a good exercise for nervous horses.

    Tried this tonight, looks way easier than it actually is. I suppose it is much different when the horse used to demonstrate is calm compared to the one you are working with as it isn't used to this exercise.

    Repetition. Will practice and be patient and am sure it will improve with time.
