[QUOTE="hayray, post: 710128, member: 3046"] Spurs are an important component of horse training. The blunt heel of a boot requires too much force to be applied from the leg, this does a couple of things - often causes the rider to artificially move the leg out of the proper position by exaggerating use of the leg, and then also slows the timing of application of the leg down and usually puts the riders timing behind that of the horse. Just more efficient to use them. Alot people obviously get by with out them but it is a compromise of time, efficiency and responsiveness. [/QUOTE]
