Do you have a site with pictures? (Yes, I could look,
but I've got to head out soon for a lesson...and hey,
I tend to slothfulness!)
But unless he was wearing a leather choker, a
high-speed capture with your typical lariat ought to
leave impressive abrasions, not just redness.

who doesn't know how to lasso, but figures she could
whack somebody pretty hard with a steel stirrup if she
had to...anybody want to calculate the force generated
when half-a-ton of horse and rider gallop up at ~20mph
and said stirrup contacts skull of idiot that
attempted to injure rider or her student? <ugly grin>
