    [RC] black horses & Hackamores - LOUISE D BURTON


    The best horse I have ever had for recoveries was my black bay stallion, and
    his daughter, Ffire Storm, also black bay...but then there is Jesse, riding
    Blaze (Farah Lena+/) who waltzes in the PR with a 12, and his horse is grey.
    I think it has more to do with bloodlines than color.  And I have found it
    has a LOT to do with what you are feeding.
    Seems there was quite a discussion on this on ridecamp several years ago...
    
    Hackamores: I agree with Susan, I love an S-hack.  I hate mechanical hacks.
    They tend to make the horse hold his head high and really hollow his back.
    I try to ride in competitions with sidepulls or S hack..at least after the
    first loop!  They drink so much better.
