Horse Tack

Just about any color goes well with a black colored horse. For schooling or lessons let your tastes show and pick saddle pads in the colors or patterns you like the best. For shows the pad should conform to the show organizations rules.

For example in western sports a large square pad or blanet can be any color unless the rules state otherwise and people tend to match the pads to their outfits. In english classes the typical colors are white and black , either in a square shape or a fitted pad shape.

A bit is the part of the bridle that gets put in the horse's mouth. It is usually metal. It's used for control. The reigns are connected to it. A bridle without a bit is built differently to put pressure on different pars of the horse's head to give the rider control with the reigns. Though many riders use bitless bridles for many many reasons, I like them because when my horse and I go on trail rides, we can stop and take a break and I can let my horse eat grass without the hassle of changing from bridle to halter.

Cowboys used ropes and horses to catch cattle in a couple of ways. The horse itself was used to allow the cowboy to keep up with the cattle and for 'stopping power'. They would then lasso the cattle by either throwing the rope over the cattle's horns, head, or heels. Once the rope was secure around the animal they would then wrap the rope around the saddles horn or secure it in some other way if there was no horn to use. The horses size would keep the animal from getting away, like an anchor on a ship.

You can saddle branches of the same size or smaller onto headers at various degrees. There are typical 16-division layout; and also a 64-division layout to calculate information for mitered ells and rolling offsets.

A saddler makes, repairs, and sells horse equipment.

A saddle is what you sit on when you ride a horse or Pony. A stirrup is a metal arch type shape, it hangs from a strip of leather. You put your feet into the stirrups. The stirrups can be unattached from the saddle for cleaning

Oakridge Saddle Company factory may no longer be in business. The business was for sale in Northridge, California. Oakridge Saddle Company did not make custom saddles. They made saddles specific to the way they were going to be used such as saddles for barrel riding.

Not all horseshoes are made from steel. Though usually made of steel, aluminium is also sometimes used. Aluminium shoes are dearer than steel. There are also plastic-coated metal shoes, and even all-plastic horseshoes.

well maybe it is late hello they are not kids anymore hello they are NOT kids anymore

You care for a bridle in much the same way you would a saddle. You should wipe it down after every ride and clean it at the very least once a month, once a week would be better. You should make sure to hang the bridle correctly by the crown piece on a hanger designed for bridles. When it's time to clean it, you should take it completely apart, noting where each hole was set at and clean it the same way you would a saddle, let it dry and then put it back together again.

the beginner rider should be riding a beginner level horse. a beginner horse should be able to go in a snaffle. our beginnger horses go in a full cheek copper twist or a snaffle double jointed

A horsefly bite is painful but not dangerous unless you are allergic to it or the wound becomes infected. Treat it as you would any small injury, and see your doctor if you are worried about it.

A saddle pad is a thick pad made of usually wool that is placed underneath the saddle. It provides more comfort to the horse when there is a rider on the back, and displaces the saddle more evenly across the horse's back.

Australian saddles, called Aussie saddles or Australian stock saddles are very similar to western saddles American riders use. The main difference is the absence of the saddle horn up front, which allows the rider to fit more comfortable down into the saddle allowing your pelvis to make contact with the surface, which over the course of a 8 hour day will provide greater stability for the rider, less impact on the spine and more maneuverability (center of gravity) for the horse. The seat of an Australian saddle naturally puts the rider in a balanced riding position, with half the rider's weight in the seat and half in the stirrups. The Australian terrain is very different from American terrain, it is very harsh, remote and hard and flat. Horses in Australia are used to work livestock, handling long arduous cattle drives that may take weeks to complete. Due to these conditions where the rider is in the saddle for prolonged periods, day after day, the Australian saddle has evolved from it's American cousin.

In order to have proper communication for collected work, you need to have contact with the horse's mouth. The reins should not be 'tight', actually the connection should be a very light one but the reins should not be hanging loose either. If the horse is moving correctly and is truly obedient and in harmony with his rider, then he should accept contact on the reins without sticking his nose in the air, ducking his nose behind the contact, or otherwise resisting. He should move forward confidently and happily and work in harmony with his rider, using the contact as an aid rather than getting defensive against it.

actually patch is really a girl! i have met her b4 and i have photo's to prove it :D

What kind of riding do you do? I have a Saddlebred and I ride Saddleseat and use a Mule bit http://www.melindaharllee.com/Mule%20Bit.jpg I also use a show bit https://www.saddler.co.uk/prodpics/ready/show_pelham_bi_1_large.jpg only it has 2 bits. My 2 horses are very strong and do NOT like to stop so these help. Just be sure to be gentle... they can hurt your horse like all bits can. Sassy35242 (6 years of riding experience)

At a stretch, yes. It's not safe and certainly not recommended, but if you're desperate a shirt would work fine. Just slip it around the horses neck up by the head and gently hold it. A hand on the horses nose to guide the horse is also useful when leading this way, especially seeing you would have little control.

No, you do not have to loosen the girth before mounting a horse.

No you could not. A horses saddle and bridle would not fit a gemsbok's much more narrow frame. Further more a gemsbok can never be fully tames, if they could be tamed they already would be and would more than likely be used for agricultural activities. Not all species of animal are tamable and the gemsbok is one of them.
