Never, ever, use the Lunge Whip directly on your horse! The lunge whip is to be used as an extension of your arm to guide your horse, not to abuse your horse..Period! When used correctly, the lunge whip acts as a directive to encourage your horse. Snap it behind your horse and the sound will make him go forward, hold it in front and it will stop your horse. If used along with voice commands your horse will soon learn to listen to your voice and will not need the sound of the whip.
