Hello - we have been making some changes in my gelding and i love how he is running now that we switched to the left barrel first. I, however, am struggling a bit to make the adjustment. This is the first horse i have ever taken left first. Any advice? I assume it takes time but i wanted to know if there are some good tips out there to let me adjust faster.

(LOL
) had me switch my gelding one day and enter him the next. For me there was never a hitch. He ran like he had been running that way always. I just needed to be a little more diligent in making sure if he needed a little help to keep him on the right side of the barrel for a few runs. I really didn't need to do this much though.
Good luck. Let us know how you are doing.

I too switched my horse from right to left. It was a conscious effort on my part to do a correct
pattern. However, I have turned the 3rd barrel on the wrong side!!! It happened, no big deal, the more
I "run" my horses the more comfortable I have become in the pattern. I run 2 horses & they will both run
to the left, because there is no way I can run one, one way n the other the other way!!!!! LOL
