[RC] Equine Pedo - Roger Rittenhouse


RES  -really  is no difference from any human unit ..the one you
see advertised for $50 is the same as the one from radio shack that I
bought for $20  they also have a very nice one that I have used for
about $30... none of course are water resistant.. I trashed one -- but
at $20 who cares.. it takes some effort to get the pace-stride
settings to be close  for distance. It worked OK if you kept up the
same pace at  a trot - the same pace you set the stride length for.
I found one that lets you set in two stride lengths  for a walk and
trot. not sure the one from RS does that . look on ebay under
pedometer??

Still think the best deal for horse use is the TIMEX GPS.. I wrote
about it at my web site.. ebay has the GPS only unit for about $100 or
less.  A good bit more accurate then the pedo units, and work at any
pace speed walk trot canter
I live in the woods and it is working great with very few drop outs.
Sure beats the manual step sensing  pedo meter  .. not that much more
for a real tool that works.

Thanks
