RCP #12 Article: GR 8.1 - Carrying a Whip

RCP #12 Article: GR 8.1 
Suggested by: Michele Harn

Current wording: An appropriate whip should be carried in hand at all times while driving. The thong on the whip should be long enough to reach the shoulder of the farthest horse. 

Suggested wording: An appropriate whip should must be carried in hand at all times while driving. The thong on the whip should be long enough to reach the shoulder of the farthest horse. 

Reason for change: To be consistent with wording in 207.2 and 928.4.1. See rules GR 2.9 and 2.10 for use of words “should” and “must”.

    Article RCP # 12 – Correction in wording makes sense but really has anyone ever seen the thong measured? I may have seen it done once in a Turnout class back in the eighties.

    I am opposed, leave as is - the RCP is inconsistent with Art. 964.1
