[QUOTE="sjr725, post: 367084, member: 4936"] We work with alot of babies and my husband made me a really handy little item - he cut the handle end off of a golf club and then ground the shaft off so the rubber part covers it up. Its small enough to stick in your back pocket but really handy to use if a horse is pushing or crowding you can just poke them with it - it's a little stiffer then using your thumb and gets them to back right off - if they want to walk off ahead of you when leading, you can hold it in your hand and poke them in the chest to get them to back off - works like a charm - I have 4 or 5 of them scattered all over the place and use them every day. wonderful aid to use for ground work to get a horse to sidepass away from you - not crowd you when your grooming or saddling - like I say you can just stick it in your pocket so it's not like you have to carry it always in your hand - leaves both hands free until you need it. Just use the fat end like you would use your thumb to give them a little jab to move off or away or back up - I love it for one that wants to walk over the top of you. [/QUOTE]
