Re: [RC] condiment bottles for elytes--now Stowaway Packs - Dabney Finch

When are EZ Care or someone going to come out with a
gunkproof saddle bag specifically made to carry big
syringes with their plungers stuck out?
 
Don't know about gunkproof, but my Stowaway cantle bag can hold a couple of  big e-lyte syringes w/ plungers sticking out.  It's the best I've found because the separate zippered compartments mean you don't have to go hunting thru EZ boots etc to find your map or whatever--& if the plunger does come out the e-lytes don't get all over everything else....

SuG:
Or?.you could just skip the syringe entirely, shake up the condiment bottle, poke the top in the side of the horse?s mouth and squirt in a bit.  Just a thought.

I like it... except - will you be able to get the
stuff far enough in, though? Or will you just end up
depositing a big glob on the horse's tongue, causing
him to spit it out and give you snake eyes next time
you try to elyte him? ...or is it all in the technique,
like Angie's sponging - you have to finesse your aim
to jet a squirt up into the back of his mouth?

Certainly if you could figure it out, a quick squirt
now and again would be dead easy to do - and a condiment
bottle much more convenient to carry than stupid syringes.
