I have one more question. Her previous owner rode her in a bonnet and I have been riding her in just a nose tiedown, would that make a difference?

Definitely

The bonnet works on poll pressure and gives freedom of the nose.

A regular tie down still allows the head to elevate more then the bonnet as it mostly works on nose pressure. Also if a horse wants the can get under a tie down depending on how it is adjusted. It can also shorten their stride depending on how tight whereas a bonnet does not.

Location: Illinois		Thank you for the advice, I have never used a bonnet before and only had a noseband tiedown to use. The previous owner used a bonnet that just went over the ears, like a head setter I suppose instead of one that goes over the ears and around the nose.
