wear spurs???

My Mr. Ed · 05-03-2005, 11:24 AM

No...I don't....I'll use a crop every now and then...

I answered "no way" because i've never worn spurs, but I don't feel as harshly against it as the "No way!" makes it sound. I think their are reasonable purposes for spurs, but I do not need them myself.

I feel the exact same way!

nope - the last time i competed in anything other than games and showjumping (or on a horse that needed them) i was still under sixteen and no-one under sixteen is allowed to use them in competition in the UK so it would have been pointless to use them at home and get to rely on them.

Only if my boy is too busy being mischivious rather than paying attention.. Can horses have A.D.D??
