HELP FOR BARREL RACERS
Nobody “plans” to run over the barrel........... but it happens. Whether you’re a professional or a beginner, it happens. What can you do to minimize the opportunity for injury to horse or rider? You might try the Fuller Retractable Barrel.
This innovative training tool offers barrel racers the opportunity to eliminate the pain and fear that can result from hitting unforgiving metal barrels. Especially practical for the young or inexperienced, these rugged and lightweight training aids can be utilized effectively as tools for teaching both horses and riders to negotiate turns effectively and efficiently without worrying or injuries that can result from hitting hard steel. Using the unique “retractable” feature, these barrels are virtually impossible to knock down and actually “give” if they are bumped into.
Since they right themselves after any collision, Full Barrels also eliminate the usual training
interruptions of getting off your horse to reset conventional barrels. Being easy to assemble and move around, they are perfect for practice, training, and even exhibitions. A spring-supported pole provides flex and the connection for molded plastic base and top. Bases should be filled with sand for stability (or water: caution - may freeze in winter). The durable Red, White and Blue cover is UV protected to resist weather and provides the exterior appearance of a barrel to the horse and rider. Adding convenience and safety, a set of three barrels is perfect for professionals or beginners interested in improving the skills and confidence of both horse and rider.
