I don't condone it but sometimes you have to get the d@amed horse back under control.
I was on a horse that bolted while out in the field. He was going sideways FAST, toward and 6-10 foot deep ditch filled with rocks and gravel. I smacked him in the head with the reins to get his attention because nothing was working.
