What type of flocking is used in Harry Dabs saddle pads?
This depends. If the label says it is 'flocked' that generally means that the saddle has been stuffed with with wool. Otherwise it most likely has foam panels which are harder to replace than wool flocking.
What size saddle would fit a 14hh pony?
The saddle needs to fit BOTH horse and RIDER. Depending on the seat of the rider a typical pony saddle would have a 10 to 14 inch seat. You will need to have a longer girth on a smaller saddle.
Do you think going to strip clubs is considered cheating?
If the other person in the relationship doesn't approve of them going to the strip club then it is cheating. Going to a place were there are naked girls, and being able to look at their naked body isn't right. Keep it at home.
If it is cheating and he went with friends and his friends didn't do anything about it, maybe it is time to get a new BF and new friends.

How do you stop a rider pulling on the horse reins to much?
Hey im 12 and i do professional horse showing and have ridden many horses to wins at royals and stuff but i recently acquired a beautiful Galloway and she pulls on just the left rein. i have tried everything from turning the head left and right to release tension in the muscles, to giving and taking (Half halting). She takes the bit and rounds up but the she pulls not all the time but im trying to get my ridding better and this is a distraction as i catch my left and opening up (moving away from the horse) is there anything that i havent already done to help get rid of the problem?
Thanks
What is the best saddle for eventing?
First of all check your price range, sure you dont have to go and get the ,most expensive saddle on the market, however you do pay for what you get. You need something that will fit both the horse and the rider. I recomend stongly that you go through a saddler and he will give professional advice on what route to take.
I reccomend: Martin Wilkinson (UK)
Chris Ghols (UK)
I have used them both for my saddles, i was espesially plesed with Chris Ghol.
But dont think that just because you are going through a saddeler that the prices with be high, you can ask for second hand or the lower price ranges.
A saddle is a very imporatnt part of riding UNLESS BAREBACK! , A bad saddle can cause a bad and that is when your horse will start to nap, buck, reer... so on. Go through a Saddeler and dont just buy a saddle of a friend or a random shop thinking that you can fit it yourself!! x
The most expensive 1 probably! The 1 I got was recommended by pro and was SWEET!
Can your horse wear a martingale with a figure 8 bridle?
A figure 8 simply keeps the horses mouth closed around the bit so it cannot evade the bit. Sometimes its used simply to keep a horses tongue in its mouth when the horse likes to stick it out. (Not kidding, there are horses that prefer to keep their tongue stuck out.) A flash noseband performs the same function but some people think a figure 8 is more comfortable for the horse.
You can certainly use a martingale with a figure 8. If you use a standing martingale be sure to attach it to the part of the nose band that does not go below the bit. It must attach to the upper noseband.
What is the best bit to use for team roping?
There is no one "best" bit. You need a bit the works well with your horse. Depending on who sponsors the jumping competion there are regulations on which bits are allowed and which ones are prohibited. The rule of thumb is get a bit that allows the most control with the minimum amount of bit. Harsher bits should only be used by trainers and experienced equestriens.

How do you move water from one place to another?

How does a horse's bridle work?
Many people abuse the bridle by trying to use it to MAKE a horse stop, turn, collect, etc. The bridle should only be used with very gentle hands and the slightest pulls on the reins to cue your horse to do something.
So to answer your question, it should be used to cue your horse when you need it to stop, turn, collect, etc.
It helps steer the horse and it stops the horse.
How long is a normal horse lead rope?
They can be made of a number of ropes including (twisted or braided) cotton, polyester and nylon. Synthetic ropes are often preferable because cotton lead ropes tend to stretch over time, although you can have a wider variety of colours to choose from if you use cotton. Nylon is also good if you want different colours. Hope this helps :)

What is saddle point in a matrix?
Given a RxC Matrix, A, i.e. R rows and C columns we define a Saddle-Point as
Saddle_Pt (A(i,j))
≡ A(i,j) is the minimum of Row i and the maximum of Col j.
e.g.
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
-- 7 is Saddle_Pt.
at position (3,1)
There may be more than one Saddle-Pt,
In game theory, we look at the minimum value of all the rows which is this case is
(1,4, and 7,) We then take the max of those which is 7. This is the maxmin.
Then we look at the max of all the columns which are (7,8, and 9) and we take the min of those which is 7. So position (3,1) is the number 7 which would be the saddle point. The idea is if, the number in C means that person pays R that amount, then we want the be number in the matrix fro both R and C.
For example if R picks first and he pick row 1, then to minimize his payout, C picks 1. However, row three always has a better payout for R so he would never pick row 1 or 2. We can eliminate them from the matrix. We are left with
(7,8,9) But if you are C, want to pay the least and would always pick 7 if R picked that row. The point that is the greatest of the mimima and the least of the maxima is called a saddle point.
Sometimes there is no saddle point. We then pick the "best" policy and doing so involves some randomized strategies.
One more example is
2 -2 -3
1, 0, 2
-1 -1 3
In this example -2 means C pays -2 to R in other words R pays C 2 units.
The saddle point is 0 because it is the max(min of row) and it equals the
min ( max of columns)
There are the noseband, the head piece, the cheek piece, the bit, the throat lash, the reins and brow band. Sometimes you get flash bands.
Take note that the western bridle doesn't have a noseband. Some don't have throat latches, and a few don't even have browbands.
