Parelli Carrot Stick

$42.60

The Carrot Stick acts as an extension of your arm both in the saddle and on the ground, providing you with a longer reach for closer communication. It is not a whip. You can stroke, guide, and support your horse while teaching him the Parelli Fundamentals. It is especially valuable on your journey to bridle-less riding.

A special molded grip featuring a modern scroll design and the Parelli logo. This Golf Gripa™ handle is a Parelli custom design, and is easy to turn in hand and for active use.

The leather loop end is traditional, the leather lasts longer and the string tends to swing better. It is perfect for attaching your savvy string or a flag.

4-Foot long non-flex fiberglass shaft with a solid core gives flexibility and strength. If the stick were hollow it could bend or shatter. This flexibility results in a firm pressure but not sting when used correctly.

4 feet is the approximate length of the horses leg on the ground which a good safety measurement to stay out of the kick zone.

4 feet is also the approximate length of the horses neck, which makes it a great tool for control and safety when playing OnLine or riding FreeStyle.

The extra 4 feet transforms your tall body into a long body so you can effectively communicate with your horse.

&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;

&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;

If you understand what Pat means by long body logic, having an extension of your arm is an important part of relating to your horse. Pat says, Some people like to get it done with just carrots and some people like to get it done with a big stick to show the horse who's boss. Neither one is right, you need to become an extreme middle of the roadist to be effective and understood, this is why Pat choose this color and called it the carrot stick! It comes carrot colored to remind you to stay centered. You can build your horse's confidence, support your cues, and stroke your horse with it, both on the ground and riding."

I have no basis for comparison but i am taking some equine science classes and needed to buy some training tools. The teacher recommended all Parelli products so that’s what I got. Everything seems to b top quality AND I got matching pretty purple so I don’t get them mixed up w another student. Super happy!
