Bandages or Boots?

[Toby_Zaphod]

Just interested, when you travel your horse do you use gamgee & bandages or Travel Boots? Also could you put down your approx age as well in replies

as I've a feeling that bandages are normally use by, should I say the more mature owners

.
(we use bandages & I'll not see 50 again

)

Depends on the horse - I put travel boots on my mares/old lad and bandages on the youngsters. I am just so paranoid about travel boots slipping if the youngsters jump around that I bandage them and use overreach boots instead. I'm 25

Travel boots to go to a competition, banadages on the way back to help reduce swelling and offer more support.

My boss does it that way so haven't done it any different!

Nothing on the cob!

He hates boots and bandages so travels naked.

Bandages on the mare, travel boots on the oldie.

As to age - shall we say 40 something.

edited for spelling.

I use bandages on anything that allows me to i.e the ones over 2yo and boots on the youngies (usually just brushing boots as their legs are too skinny for grown up travel boots).. i am 22.

My mare doesn't like travel boots and really swets up whilst traveling so I use foam pads and bandages which suits her fine. There is alot of pressure to use travel boots and I think on some horses they can be dangerous.
I am 21

Bandages if Im eventing, back boots if just popping down the road for something. Never use front boots, but it depends on the lorry Im using, if the partitions came to the floor in front I would.

Bandages all the way - when I bought my boy I was told never to travel him in boots as he needs the support of bandages. Which was a shame as I had a pair of lovely Mark Todd boots that have been used once.

Im 29

Bandages on all mine, although I do occasionally use mark todd travel boots if I'm just going half an hour away. I LOVE the eskadron gamgee stuff, it's fab
