Over the hill and far awa
I am finding the zip ties very hard to pull and tighten
I think you might be trying to tighten them too much, I thought the same as you to start with, but found that if I pullled them as tight as I could by hand they were tight enough when the mare was turned out and there was enough room to cut the tie when I wanted to take it off again. You do need to be at the right angle to pull them tight enough.
