Hello ridecamp! I am cleaning out my tackshed and trailer for the up and
coming ride season (it seems so far yet so close -ohhh...) I am finding myself
throwing away a bunch of my old (very, very used)stuff and I am now in the
search for the tack I would die for (hopefully not, I just really want to fall
in love with it >vbg< ) Sooo, PLEASE, if anyone has any suggestions on
some of the tack they are using I need to hear from you!!!
I have finally ended my saddle search, but now I am searching for a new
breast collar. I have looked into biothane, but I really don't like how thin
the straps are and since I am endulging for myself (I mean my horse, yeah.) I
was thinking about the Zilco line. They just look really comfortable for the
horse. Have any of you ever used that line and if so the standard, eurotech,
or ztech model? Which one do you prefer, what does your horse think of it, are
they really that easy to clean, and what color looks good on a grey horse
>g<? Also, did you have to make any modifications to it? If there are
any other brands of breast collars out there that you like more, what are
they?
While I am on the Zilco part of my splurging, (I mean researching for more
improved equestrian tools), have any of you tried the Zilco crupper? I have
never had to use a crupper on my horse before, but next year I want to compete
more, travel more, ("movin' on up...")and I would like to have it on hand just
in case. She has had one before, but I have never had to use one. What brands
do you all use and where can I get one?
Let's see..... I have about 2 million girths, :) , halterbridles
etc....hackamore, got 'em.... Ohhh yeah!!! I am thinking about purchasing a
sidepull for my mare. her training has progressed, and she is so mellow, so
what do you all think of sidepulls? Where did you find it and how does your
horse respond? My mare is very light and easy (natural horsemanship).
Currently I rotate btwn my full cheek snaffle and an "S" hackamore.
I believe that is all the tack I need, but who knows!?! I am also searching
for some "camping/trailer/just in general" equipment. I am thinking about a
full bale bag. Do any of you have a rolling bale bag and is it worth the extra
$$?
Well, that is pretty much all the stuff that I am in need of, but if you
have any suggestions of any other products that you use I would gladly
appreciate the info.
Thanks,
Sally ( House surrounded by flooding water, how comforting...)
