[RC] Reasons for leads with loops - Kristi SchaafHi- I noticed that someone was curious why anyone would want a lead with a loop instead of a snap....I was the original poster, and in my case, it's for a horse that's being ponied. At a trot or even a good walk, the lead snap swings back and forth from his rope halter knot and can really whack his chin and jaw. I hate to see him being "punished" for doing what he's told...I also like the leads w/ loops for tieing to the trailer - no snap for a bored horse to figure out how to rub open, or, in the case of the Parelli type snaps, for me to not get turned to closed all the way (I've had both scenarios happen).
