I am trying to assist a 4-H'er in preparing a leg wrap presentation. We are looking for references to distinguish the difference between brace bandages, standing wraps, polos, etc. We know the answers but need documentation and further research resources.

Pony Club has some great references, and it really focuses on the correct way to do leg wraps. One particular book that has various types of wraps is "The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship." They come in different levels, and the best one with wraps is Susan Harris's 1996 book called "Advanced Horsemanship." The Pony Club also has a book just about leg wraps.
