Brushing boots or fetlock and tendon boots

[poppie28]

my mare recently injured her fetlock when she knocked on a crosspole when jumping. i was wondering what type of boots would be best. She is 14.3hh and 8 years old. She is ridden nearly everyday and jumped two or three days a week. i just want to find out everyone's opinions and preferences. thanks

for schooling & hacking i use tendon on front & brushing on back and for jumping i use tendon & fetlock

I would say brushing boots or I have recently taken a liking to sports medicine boots. ( I don't jump I these though )

It really depends how big you are jumping etc - if you are jumping big fences regularly then tendon and fetlock would be better but if just popping small fences an all round brushing boot will be sufficient. The more advanced the work you do, the more you should consider boots specific to that discipline.
