Re: RC: Vosal Question

[Wayne/Elaine Delbeke <delbekew@sprynet.com>]

Hi Sindy

Some riders laugh me with my vosal.   But I've ridden a lot of different
horses and the ones who go well in the vosal, do really really well. 
Some just don't like it and there seems to be no changing their minds. 
Don't bother using it with them.  The 2 horses off the track I've ridden
(one who had only done the track, that was fun) did super with it.  Even
with the nose piece and both chin bars covered with sheepskin, it can
still be a very severe piece of equipment (as I found out after letting
a couple of people ride MY horse to try it with).  But as long as it
fits correctly, it does a good job. IMO
