"Bucket Hanging Strap" a moral buy and sell?

This looks like an awesome deal, but I don't know about how tough it will be. To me, it looks resembling it might break. Those S-shaped bucket hooks won't work for me; I've tried them but my horse knocks the bucket off. For now I'm using the S-hook as capably as tying the bucket to the stall rails with baling twine for extra indemnity but I don't want to have to worry about tying a suitable, sturdy knot while I've got an impatient - sometimes pushy - horse tied next to me. (By the mode my horse gets his grain when I come out to ride him. He doesn't have a stall so I tie him within the aisle and give him his grain.)
The hanging strap's concept looks apposite, but do you think that it will last?
i dont expect ur issue is the bucket, but that nag of a horse... it sounds like that horse needs some lessons within manners... they can learn to wait jus patiently and quietly for thier particle... pushy and impatient horses are jus troubel and need to be reminded of thier places so that you dont end up getting hurt due to the impatiencs of the horse! its all going on for ground manners... i'd get on that if i were you!
It looks fine, but he will still know how to knock the bucket around from what I can see. I don't know what to call them, but I have bucket holders that secure the bucket so it can't be moved. They enjoy a latch that secures over the handle, and the lip of the top of the bucket is fitted into a bracket before you immobilize the latch, which stabilizes the bucket. These are attached to the wood with two or three screws, and they work great. They are also pretty flat, so they don't protrude into the aisle to cause problems.
Answers: It looks good to me
Good luck
I love horses!
A unadulterated easy fix is to use one of those one way snaps and wire it to the stall/rails. That passageway, you can remove the bucket and the snap is only a few bucks.
