Hi, 

Does anyone use a wand, for monitoring heart rate and
what brands are out there. Is Polar the only one? I
wouldn't need it all the time, but I think it would be
very convenient and easier than a stethoscope. I like
to concentrate more on how the horse is doing by
observation, but would like to be able to verify heart
rate when necessary...mostly beginning, middle and end
of a conditioning ride. My own horse won't be ready
for competition for another 3-4 years at least (she's
only one) and I probably will only do one or two
rides/year with a borrowed horse until then. So I
would like to hear about your experiences with a wand
rather than a monitor.
