ABSTRACT:
An improved riding crop that allows a horseback rider to retain the crop on her hand without needing to tightly grip the crop includes a rod having opposite ends, a clapper fixed at one or both ends of the rod, a grip fixed to the rod or slidably retained on the rod, and an elastic cord extending from opposite ends of the grip and through an adjustable cord lock. Other preferred embodiments include a clapper fixed at each of the opposite ends of the rod, and a grip slidably retained on the rod between a clapper at one end of the rod and a stop located between the opposite end of the rod and the midpoint of the rod, which allow a rider to use either end of the crop for cueing the horse.
