Black is the default and the one that disappears against a black jacket and a dark horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSixty centimetres is short on purpose. Over a fence you have one hand free at most, and a long whip is unusable; a bat of this length can be turned and applied on the approach or after landing without letting go of the rein for longer than a stride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression-tested foam strike pad, which Woof Wear describe as gentle on your horse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBranded gun metal end cap, and a lightweight, balanced shaft for precise control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort enough to use one-handed over a fence, which is the entire reason a bat exists.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced towards the hand, so it turns quickly rather than needing to be swung.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight construction that stays comfortable over a full course.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShowjumping, jumping lessons and gridwork.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross-country schooling and the jumping phases of eventing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who need a whip they can apply without dropping the contact for more than a moment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdults and older juniors — for a small child, the Woof Wear Junior Jump Bat at 50cm has a slimmer grip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a dressage whip.
