  • It doesn’t matter if you handle one rein in each hand as a rider, or all four reins in your left hand as a four-in-hand driver, there’s one rein that is, and always will be the most important rein. That one rein that can make all of the difference for bending through turns, square halts, or picking up the correct lead.  It’s the outside rein.
