Message Body:
A horse throwing his head, may be due to a number of reasons: bad behavior, improper training, poor or bad bit placement or kind. Try experimenting with a snaffle. Should you try rope or lead that ties to a girth, you just may have yourself managing a horse that now rears up. Also, if you are simply holding the reins too tightly, he may be throwing his head to get more slack. Rule out the simplest first, and if you can, contact a trainer in a major area near you. It would be worth the call, as well as reading books on the subject. You'll learn as well, and it'll get you in tune with your newfound friend. Best of luck.
