Best Answer

They have a strap that connects to one end of the spur which goes over the top of the boot and attaches to the other side of the spur. These straps are known as spur straps.

they don't really need the spurs but if a bull refuses to get angry than the bull rider nudges the bull along the sides with the spurs

Are horse spurs right?

The sole purpose of spurs is to act as a leg aid. For riders that have weak legs or horses that tend to be 'dead sided', spurs are a great way to communicate to your horse. Spurs in the wrong hands, however, can do great damage to the horse. Sharp edged spurs should never be used. Small, smooth spurs are all that is needed as an extension of the riders legs and heels.
