There appears to be some difference of opinion regarding taper. Are your kilts tapered 10% or not? This is a "YES" or "NO" question. Any other answer will be understood for what it is.

The honorable representative from NC would seem more than a little terse. In Georgia we prefer to address others with respect and consideration.

If Mr Kidder states that he puts 10 degrees of taper into his kilts, then based upon what I know thus far of the gentleman, I would think that he has ten degrees of taper.

Terse? Perhaps, but let us remember that considerable money is involved in any kilt purchase, and it is not at all unreasonable to inquire, in direct terms, as to the particulars. I have no reason whatsoever to doubt Mr. Kidders claim beyond the somewhat unsure comments I have read here. Hence my direct question, and there is nothing at all aimed at badmouthing the Kidder product which I would have thought was obvious because I have very recently indicated an interest in purchasing from him.

Perhaps the honorable gentleman from Georgia might consider it possible that someone from North Carolina might actually have honorable intentions by way of direct comment, and not assume a nasty intent thinly veiled in polite Southern language.

Is there any possibility that either the Gentleman from North Carolina or the Gentleman from Georgia might consider that a high horse may not be the most advantageous mount for a Gentleman who wishes to be considered credible?

Surely both Gentlemen understand that a 10% taper can equal a 10 degree taper only under rather unusual circumstances.

A man in a kilt on a high horse may not be good for anyone around

Not quite sure what this is supposed to mean, but if you refer to my post (number 8) you can see that I had already answered based upon what I knew and based upon Mr. Kidder's statements about the kilts he makes. For this, I then was presented with " Are your kilts tapered 10% or not? This is a "YES" or "NO" question. Any other answer will be understood for what it is."

There are many different styles, sizes, materials, cuts, points of origin, price ranges and far more that enter into one's preferences. In my experience, there are a sizable number of people who have been totally thrilled with their Kidder Kilts...and for a host of very sound reasons based upon material, looks, and the quality of construction.

Personally, I think this particular horse has been ridden into the ground.

Dismounting should then offer no challenge.
