PONCHA SPRINGS, Colo. October 17, 2008—Julie Goodnight announces the third DVD in her “From the Ground” series—Bit Basics: Accepting and Responding to Bit Pressure, presented by Myler Bits USA. The 120-minute DVD is available at a special savings for pre-orders placed through October 31, 2008 and will be sent in early November 2008. The DVD is available for $34.95—a savings of $5 off the official price (MSRP $39.95). The DVD—in combination with the leather bitting equipment you need to teach your horse to give to bit pressure—is on sale for $59.95—a savings of $20 (MSRP $79.95) when you order at http://juliegoodnight.com/products in October.
 
Goodnight says that many horse owners have asked her about the right bits for their horses and how to introduce a bit properly—without pain for the horse. When used correctly, a bit helps riders communicate clear cues to their horse and achieve maneuvers and training difficult to teach. To answer the common bit questions, Goodnight planned an in-depth DVD training session. On the Bit Basics DVD, she works with a young filly that hadn’t previously had a bit in her mouth and a 13-year-old gelding that had learned to avoid bit pressure. The two horses show you what it takes to teach a bit to give to bit pressure from the start and how to rehab a horse with a traumatic past. By working with both horses, Goodnight demonstrates how to handle most any bit-related training problem. She explains how bits work, the equipment you’ll need and how to get started in your own training process.
 
Goodnight says “the young filly learned how to respond to lateral then vertical pressure on the bit. She ‘got it’ right away. I sent her home with a good start and she was light and responsive in the mouth. She also had her very own Myler snaffle to use as her training progresses. I also wanted to show how to use the same process on a broke horse with engrained bitting problems. The older horse had learned extreme tactics to avoid pressure on his mouth. He was hollowed his back, carried his head high, tossed his head, fought the bit and often ran off. He tried hard to do the right thing and after only 6 training sessions, I was able to ride him and have a glimpse of how he would be after a month of good work.”
