This is a silly idea but it does not surprise me. I suppose if you live in a city in an apartment and love horses and take a riding lesson once a week it might be a way to try and get fit to ride so your one day in the saddle would be muscle ache free. Hmm, even so, after thinking about it, why not take the $300.00 or so you'd spend on this thing and go take a few extra riding lessons?
But for those of us owning a live, rideable horse, why on earth would you want to spend money on one of these when you can get on the real one and do the same thing? (okay for anyone reading this with one of the following: greenie, hot head TB, horse with rough gaits or horse with "issues" maybe you will find one of these useful) ;)
For anyone with a mostly reliable mount, you can get on the live horse and at least drop your stirrups from your saddle if you are not comfortable with bareback. I couldn't take myself seriously sitting on an electric horse in front of the television when there are more physical and spiritual benefits to be had from time spent with the real thing.
