respecting reins

[Nanno]

Do you drive with a harness that has rein terrets? This can help keep your lines from crossing over even when the goat turns her head. If your neck strap has rings, you can pass the reins through them to help keep the lines even straighter. A lot of this issue will resolve itself once you have your goat hitched to a cart where the shafts will help keep her from turning back so dramatically. This is one of the reasons I'm not a huge fan of ground driving without a cart--you and the goat often end up in confusing situations that are completely prevented once the goat is walking between shafts.
