From my Archives 2016:
I believe that artificial aids are perfectly fine, as long as they are used correctly and to support the natural aids. Whips and spurs and stud chains, overused, are not OK! Whip and spur and stud chain, used correctly, are perfectly fine in my book. You have to think logically. A touch with the whip, or bump with the spur, to support your leg aid, perfectly fine. The key here is: use of artificial aids to support your natural aids, and used correctly!
