    Dressage Whip Length

    There actually called 'schooling whips' know as dressage whips because of exactly how you use them. Last time I checked you were allowed to use them, they just have to be black and always kept on the inside leg in the dressage test. When your next at an outing, ask to look at the dressage rules of the rriding club or whatever association is supporting it. I think this may be a rumoured rule.
