I am so grateful that my racehorse trainer friend is teaching me how to drive Zum in the round pen. This is the missing link between all the groundwork I have been doing with Zum and riding Zum on the trails. With driving, I am teaching Zum how to turn right and left with the reins but I am standing in the center of the round pen. The secret to driving is the tension and release of two long ropes that I hold with my hands. There is an art to it and I really am excited to learn something new. So is Zum!
