Personally,
shorter horses mean that I don't have to be as flexible in reaching the
stirrup and it's just that much closer to the ground if one comes
off...which is nice since I don't bounce as well as I did when I was
15!
YEAH! I am SO THERE. Our 15 plus hand mare and our young 4 year old 15 plus
hand stallion are SO HARD for me to board now - well with a bad anjkle... but
our 14.2 and 14.3 hand brickhouses, now that works just fine.
