I know there are several kinds: PHT, BOT, magnacu, ect but what temps do you think is OK to have these products on your horse? We are going to be comin up on spring and summer and I was wondering the other day- at what point can my mare not wear her BOT?

I won't use my BOT if it's over 70. Too hot. My PHT I will use all year long because it's mesh it's cooler. Now I don't leave them out in the sun with it but in stall it's cool enuf.

I really wouldn't use them, especially on the legs, over 60 or 70 degrees. I do like BOT's and they do have their place, but getting the tendons too hot is so very dangerous. Since PHT isn't heat based I would use those when it's hot out.
