Re: [IceHorses] Parelli bit (was Bit Sizer/Bit shopping)

 Well, the ever-pleasant Fugly people don't like it, (surprise, 
 surprise, eh?)  Here's a thread from March where they are discussing 
 this bit setup:... I should warn 'yall, they talk more about the horse 
 personalities thing than the bit, but it does get mentioned here and 
 there -- and it's an ungawdly long thread!


It might be more productive to either 1) ignore the bit totally and stick 
with a well-known, gentle bit, or no bit, or 2) go straight to the Parelli 
site and read about the "horsenalities" directly from the source.  I 
absolutely despise that "Fugly" site.   I'm sure they'd say that every one 
of our Icelandic's are ugly - too hairy, thick necks, no withers, blah, 
blah, blah...  Those people don't seem to like anything.  (FWIW, I don't 
care for that particular Parelli bit or their saddles, but I learned that on 
my own by reading their site, not some watered-down negative blog.)


Reading about Parelli on the Fugly Site rates right up there with learning 
dressage from the Icelanders if you ask me...why waste your time on a long 
thread on that site?
