If it is done properly it is as safe as anything with a horse can be (they're 
tricky little devile).  As far as clipping fetlock hair -- my horse is always 
clipped, never had a problem -- how long ago was this?  I think the judging 
at NATRC has come a long way, or it is completely different in the states 
that I've competed in.  Some of these stories make me feel that we're talking 
about two different sports here.  I've only been competing for the last 10 
years, but I've never heard of some of the wacky stuff that is being told on 
Ridecamp.  Either we've come a long way or there is another sport out there 
masquerading as NATRC!
