Do you face a horse when you let it loose in a pasture?

In: Care of Horses, Horse Tack [Edit categories]

Answer:

Yes you do stand face to face with the horse with your back to the gate when you turn out (let the horse loose in a field) This is to prevent injury to yourself from an exited horse kicking or bucking as runs off.
