On the kicking thing or biting, well ive done a lot of work and support at the rides and since i got kicked and broke my arm. (not at a ride) i got fired at a couple of times, and they missed , some of us get knocked down . Im been very aware of doing P&R since , and dont much care to do it, it the hardest job at the ride, and hard to find good help . When i get a excited horse i usually back out of it, same goes for the hyper impatient riders ( remember we are a free service) sometimes if you really look at the situation youre most of the time in a tight group of horses in the firing line for a kick, So please watch out. Ive even said No im not doing that stallion do your own P&R, Its just not worth it. i usually take into account of the excitement and use a quick hand held hrm, or go by their own on-board hrm Stehescopes are just to close, but you can get a idea in the first 10 sec where they are, if you know what you are doing. Just for safety awarness. se
