Quirt with Wrist Loop

Barrel racing is decided in the gaps between barrels, where a cue has to land right now. This quirt gives you a light, quick way to ask for more speed or a tighter turn, and the wrist loop keeps it where your hand can find it instead of fumbling at the saddle horn. Twisted nylon construction with a leather popper makes it durable and easy to handle.

Twenty-nine inches overall, with an 8 inch popper on the end. The loop fits comfortably over your wrist, so the quirt is always right there when you need it. Between runs, wipe off sweat and dirt and hang it up so the leather popper stays supple.

• Wrist loop keeps the quirt in reach for one-handed pickups
• Durable twisted nylon construction
• Leather popper for a crisp, readable cue

At a glance

Good to know

• Slide the loop onto your wrist before you nod for the gate so the quirt is already in hand at the first barrel.
• Wipe off sweat and arena dirt after a run, then hang it rather than stuffing it in a bag, so the leather popper stays soft.
• Keep a spare in the trailer so a lost or borrowed quirt doesn't cost you a run.

Keep one on the saddle and one in the trailer, so a quirt is always within reach when you head in.
