How to Use
- Check the length suits you - 23 inches is a short whip, noticeably shorter than a long dressage whip.
- Hold the whip in the hand with the shaft resting across your thigh, keeping a normal rein contact.
- To change hands, bring both reins into one hand and lift the whip over the withers rather than dragging it across.
- Use quietly and sparingly as a back-up to the leg aid, in line with the rules of your discipline.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth after muddy sessions and allow to dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Store hanging or laid flat so the shaft keeps its shape, and inspect before each use.
