[RC] Helmet stories - Susan JonesThought this link might be of interest. http://www.horse-sense.org/stories/ To add my own little story: since becoming interested in Endurance, I started wearing a helmet. At a recent clinic where everyone rides Western, a juvenile and I were the only two wearing helmets. After hearing the stories about helmets and falls, it didn't even bother me to be "different". A week after the clinic, I fell off my horse and the back of my head hit the ground hard. Helmet did it's job. The muscles on the sides of my neck and abdomen were very sore the next day (something I don't understand), but never even got a headache.
