1 For the first several months of your horse's jumping training, keep the jumps so small that he can go over them from a standstill. 2  If your horse questions a jump, never let him turn away and reapproach the fence. 3  If you allow this, you're teaching your horse how to say no.
(May 2012) True north (geodetic north) is the direction along the earth's surface towards the geographic North Pole. True geodetic north differs from magnetic north (the direction a compass points toward the magnetic north pole), and from grid north (the direction northwards along the grid lines of a map projection).
Because the Earth's magnetic North Pole attracts the north ends of other magnets, it is technically the South Pole of our planet's magnetic field. True north. While a compass is a great tool for navigation, it doesn't always point exactly north. This is because the Earth's magnetic North Pole is not the same as true north, or the Earth's geographic North Pole. The magnetic North Pole lies about 1,000 miles south of true north, in Canada.
