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...)
