We tested all these horse boots on our own ponies, and these are our findings. We tried out Husk horse boots, Eskadron sports boots, Weatherbeeta, Woof Wear, Bandages, Neoprene sports boots by Caribu and Zilco. Our review looked for the best horse boots for polo and polocrosse.

Different types of reins have pros and cons. Running reins have an advantage for strong horses that pull on the bit but can limit agility.

Which bit is the best for a strong horse that leans on the bit or runs straight through it? Where gags tend to raise the horse's head, pelhams pull the horse's down and under, with stronger, and more comfortable pressure. The Barry Gag is one option, and there are other innovative bits like the Pelham to consider. 

Polo gags are one of the most popular bits in polo. Why? Because they work so well. There are three types to choose from: Polo Gag, Eggbutt Gag, and Polo 3 Ring Gags.
