Because I've come off twice and both times I've broken bones and both times I've smacked my head hella hard on the ground. To me a helmet is like a seatbelt. Just a little extra protection. It may not save your life...but it just might. Helmet hair is a pain in the @$$ but that's what ball caps were made for.<br /><br />To compete in our dressage competitions as of this year helmets are required for anyone on horseback on the grounds even if they aren't going to show. <br /><br />This is a hot button for lots of people. Personally, I think Pat and Linda (and a lot of other horse people in the spotlight) should be setting a better example.wilsonchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085470527006328839noreply@blogger.com
