[RC] Temperature Guns - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: April pmacedir@xxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Anybody use a temperature gun to pinpoint heat in your horse's legs, back, hooves, wherever? For example: http://tinyurl.com/28rst I'm just wondering if something like this would be useful, or just a waste of money. Not as a substitute for knowing my horse or running my hands over him, but as a supplemental source of information when I *think* there might be heat in a certain area, but I'm not certain. I think one of my biggest concerns would be how accurate it is. Like can it detect a temperature difference of 1/2 degree or whatever might be appropriate. Last year at BSF, one of the vets had a thermal digital camera. That was awesome, but also way out of my price range! I'd especially like to hear from anybody that uses (or has used) such a tool. If you haven't and wouldn't, I can pretty much guess your response. I've been reading Ridecamp a long time. Thanks for the helpful responses.

Go for it, you never know what you'll accomplish with that "saddle horse" or "trail horse" of YOURS! ~ Darlene Anderson - DPD Endurance ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ===========================================================
