Wearing helmets?
So how many people wear helmets every time they ride? I see so many people riding that only wear helmets when they're showing or jumping. It's like some people have the mentality that if they're just schooling on the flat in the arena wearing their old jods and a sweatshirt, there is no need for a helmet. Or, if they're going out for a short hack spur of the moment, they're OK bareheaded.
I've also always been intrigued with the lack of helmets in the Western world. I know that it's not the proper headgear for a Western show, and I realize that Western work is "only" on the flat, but what do you think about it?
Personally, I ride English and nowadays I always wear one, whether or not it's convenient. When I was younger, however, and would go on trail rides, I didn't always. How about everyone else?
EDIT: If you don't wear a helmet, why? Are there any circumstances that you would? Just curious! 
A fall from a horse say 16.5 hands and add the height of an average human (5 foot 8 Inches ) = 8 feet+
(I have allowed for half the height of the human)
Jump a fence that is say 2.5 feet high(small jump) and add a clearance of say another foot or so.
Now take a horse that refuses a jump. Rider goes flying at working canter speed some 10 feet onto their head.
ouch
Give me a helmet / riding hat any day thank you
