I have never tried it myself but I would imagine you have to be very consistant with it or you will not get very good results

have used in the past intesnively on a very difficult mare and yes it works BUT it is very time consuming - got the book and even went on a rather expensive course once - it didn't solve all the problems BUT it did make me able to handle most of them - however if you are just doing it for a bit of fun / different then go ahead but remember timing is the key

I've never used it myself, but a friend of mine who has very well trained dogs used it to train her horse to pick his feet up for when she picked them out, she had great results.
