No - no problem. Are you free lunging or do you have a halter over the bridle to attach the lunge line to? And if you don't have a single rein, tie them up so they don't fall down and get stepped on.
No. I still keep the halter on. I don't need to but I'm supposed to have her secure at all times in the barn and it's a pain to tie the halter around her neck, take the briddle off and put it back on. I don't use it with lunging. I attatch to the halter. I have the reins knotted and loose on her neck. I just didn't know if pulling the halter could somehow put tension on the briddle, then reins or the loose reins giving false cues.. I have also been leaving the stirrups down.
