Re: [RC] [RC] Using breast collars on flat trails... - Laurie Durgin

Welllllll, I am as cautious as I can be, buuuutttt, I got Rascal's fullcheek snaffle caught in my shirt one day (stopped him headrubbing with tack on ever again!).
And I got both my fannypack and my bra hooked in my arabian western saddle horn, going up hills while 2 pointing.
Got rid of the western saddle ,decided horns were a dangerous thing FOR ME. Course, that saddle almost never shifted, unlike every other one he has had (and uses a breastplate and crupper) but then he is a barrel. :}
Then there was the day, vines caught my stirrup. . .and bout drug me off.. One of the tihings I like about my Aussie/endurance is it is rigged english, has stirrupbars, so they should release if hung up. . should. . .

 Ain't this the truth. At one pleasure ride I watched a
rather well endowed lady dismount and in the process get
her bra hung up on the saddle horn. She was also short, so
her feet didn't quite reach the ground. As she was flailing
around trying to get free, the horse decided he had had
enough and started to crow hopp. Could have been a major
wreck but we got the horse stopped and it took  two strong
men to lift this poor woman up and off of the horn. Amazing
her bra didn't break!. Was the saddle horn dangerous? (I
personally don't like them) Some will argue yes and an
equal number will argue no...Was her bra dangerous???
guess it's best not to go there...lol

Penny




I heard about a woman >
