Swinging & back problems

[hairycob]

Just wondering if swinging a youngster could cause sacro illiac problems down the line.

Don't get me wrong it's someting I would never, ever do but I'm just pondering after a conversation this morning.

What is 'swinging'?

It's a method of teaching youngsters to tie up. Tie to a solid post, and let them get on with it.

Basically a horse is put in a strong headcollar & tied to an immovable object with a strong rope/chain & left to it until it realises resistance is futile.

I would be more worried about it breaking it's neck
