Years ago I read a thread where guys were comparing Tony Miller's horsehide .... no draw and his latigo (bovine) a lot of draw. Some said that the horse was no good at all (for them) and most did prefer the latigo. Now I had both and the latigo felt like it would snatch the razor out of my hand .... with normal ... my normal ... pressure .... which ain't much. The horse was just right for me. Anyway, it seems to me there needs to be resistance ..... draw ..... for the strop to be doing anything . OTOH, I could be wrong ..... you know the rest of it .....
