Well, since I'm in the picture posting mood, Here are some shots of me schooling my ott standardbred names Nuke. Well, he's been out of work for a while, and since i'm recovering from the kick in the face injury, lol I'm not in the best shape either. The pictures are from a video, so don't beat me up over the quality please..lol
Sorry so blurry. I'm always alone out there for the most part. So nobody to video tape me, so I have to use a tripod and a stationary camera. So theres no zooming ot tracking..Dang it. He's at least stretching out here.
Here we are at a bit of a walk. Head up and in giraffe mode.
He is actually very easy to collect up, but has a tendency to do a stepping pace, or hard pace if you touch his face. He scrunches up and you'll see that in several pictures where I have to push him back to the trot.He's very up and its very comfortable, but I was trying to get him to stretch out and move out a bit more.
Here is his walk again. Very lateral and "pacey" Well. He was raced at the pace for SEVERAL years, so..what can you expect..lol
Here he is bunching up again. Notice the totally slack reins, This was his response to my asking for some more forward movement. Dork.
Now he's moving, but all hollow and yucky. He's at least pushing a bit more from the booty.
Can't tell I come from a hunter backround can you? He's still moving decent, not great but getting there.
Here the head is up, but he's moving! YEAH! i have no idea WTF is going on with my legs? It looks like they are up but his shoulder? Looks really odd.
Can we say, pacing? Darn pacers! lol
Again, I have no idea whats going on here. ? Over posting. Not sure. I think I was being very defensive. here.
I'm happy how he's moving here. no real complaints. Again. Me the dork.
Hollowed out again. He's not that strong through the back anyways, he goes through periods of an ok connection, then the head pops up. Thats ok though, we can work on that.
Any Advice would be helpful if you'e got it! Try not to be to mean! I cry easily. ;)
Here is a short (very short) little video clip.
