Re: [RC] Cavessons (was: Kimberwicke) - Kristen A FisherI missed the beginning of this thread, but you can get plain schooling cavesons for around $35 at www.sstack.com Click on the Arabian/Gaited menu item on left, then under Arabian training you will find cavesons. http://www.sstack.com/jump.jsp?itemID=84&itemType=CATEGORY&iMainCat=67&iSubCat=84 Kristen ----- Original Message ----- From: "k s swigart" <katswig@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2004 9:37 AM Subject: [RC] Cavessons (was: Kimberwicke) Kathy Meyers said:I won't buy a bridle with a flash noseband, but finding a regular noseband leather bridle is tougher. Just about everything you see these days has a flash noseband. What's up with that?You need to look in a place that sells tack for show hunters. A flash noseband is a forbidden piece of tack in the hunter ring, and since, in the hunter ring, looks is everything, you can't get away with having a cavesson with a flash attachment and just not put the flash on, because that little loop would be unsightly and put the judge off in an instant :). However, if you aren't concerned with looks (which I am so _I_ don't own any cavessons with flash attachments) then just taking the flash off works just fine. You can also buy a dressage double bridle. Since you can't use a flash with a double bridle, the cavesson for a double bridle doesn't have an attachment for a flash. Or barring all these things, they DO sell cavessons completely separately...and then you can put it on your western bridle if you want :). All of these things come in leather. kat Orange County, Calif. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
