FW: [RC] round reins / not rope - Mike SherrellThe problem with gloves is you can't feel anything nice with your hands, such as in particular your horse's coat. It's the sensual input that is really the main reason for riding, no? And the palms of your hands and fronts of your fingers are the part of your skin that is most tactilely informative. Wind in the face is nice, too.

I suspect cheaper ones would be worse, and expensive ones (with the leather more smoothed) would be the same or better.

But when I fell off the other weekend, I got some pretty bad rope burn on a couple of my fingers. I really like the round reins though, as opposed to flat. Are there any round rein options made of another material that would not be susceptible to rope burn?
