Dear Julie, My understanding is that spurs are to be used to back up a request if the horse is not responding or to make a cue more clear as in lateral work. It is hard for me to picture how to not have the spur contact the horse, especially in the most forward position when cueing with one's leg.
Understanding what causes bone spurs can help you work with your physician to develop an effective treatment plan. Bone spurs, also called osteophytes, are bony protuberances that your body produces in an attempt to reinforce a weakened spine. Bone spurs can develop inside facet joints or along the edges of vertebral endplates.
