WillAnother Mule
I finally latched on to the best mule that ever hit the ground. Broke the best. I just love her.

wympleLooks pretty quiet. It's female, you know how they sneak up on you once they're "in".

What's with a picture of only 3/4 of her. Rider camera shy? Nice looking tack, as well. Hope she likes your dog.

wympleOK, Will, which one's the mule?!!! Nice setup, all around. If horses weren't so purty, I'd have a mule.

az rancherSo Will, what do you think of the stirrups or have you ridden them enough to even decide?

WillGee, I don't know. I have just been riding around my little pasture and since my left knee is crap, it is hard to tell quantitatively whether they are any better. But my knee "seems" to bother me less so maybe (!) they are better.
I have been trying to pay attention to photos of guys with their regular stirrups and if they are not purposely pushing down on the stirrups their boots are crooked in the stirrups and are held more like the angle of the crooked stirrups. So to a drugstore cowboy like me it just reaffirms my belief that they "should" help. I'm going to try them this year and see what happens.
I have no creds in this regard and you can take it for what it's worth!
