What’s the trend these days? Is a pulled tail still the standard, even at low level unrecognized events, or a holdover from days gone by? How often do you see a braided tail in competition? What advantages are there to a pulled tail in terms of care or disadvantages? I am very very suspect when it comes to pulling tails…I have horses who hate it so I don’t do too much of it but I want them to look good.
My concerns are: time taken to do it right to start with and maintenance. Will it work on the very thin tailed horse. Is it fashionable. Can I get away with not doing it for lower levels.
