5Horse Flies Beware!  Jul 21, 2010
By A. PRIOR
If you walk in the country along bridle paths, chances are you're a target for horse and dung flies. Absolute horrors. Himself fancied a fly whisk, like the one Jomo Kenyatta sported, to keep the darn things away. The one we chose is 'Made in England' but came from America, and this is where you must be careful. It's a beautiful thing, well crafted and up to doing the job it's made for very well. When you're calculating your expenditure, though, remember all the taxes you will have to pay, including European Tax. They double the price! Himself now strides along, flicking the whisk, free of horse-flies and being very careful not to allow our thumping great Lurcher to get hold of what has turned a waking nightmare into a real pleasure.

5Great product - great price!  Jul 13, 2008
By M. S. Gift
I was very pleased with the quality of the whisk, I have a friend who paid a lot more for one from another source, and mine was just as nice.

The Item looks to be good quality; I like how the handle is made along with the whisk part of this item.

3Whisk OK  Aug 30, 2008
By Melissa A. Klein "OsisArt.com"
I've only used this product a couple of times and while it hasn't fallen apart, it hasn't really been truly tested for durability.

I think while it's OK - what I am really looking for is something that is both a crop/carrot stick and a fly whisk. This is more of a fly whisk.

It's great to have on trails for whisking flys away, but I find the wooden stick part to be a little bulky - I would rather have something with a little more "snap" to it - more like a crop. I use the Parelli training method with the carrot stick and find that for long trail rides the carrot stick is too bulky and doesn't have a wrist strap. It's not as good for cueing my horse as a Parelli stick... I am going to try to modify a broken carrot stick by adding a fly whisk to it in order to get the best of both worlds.

The handle is vinyl - not leather - kinda cheesy considering how much this cost.
