HI Spy: Favorite Things
Do you have one special piece of tack or horse equipment that you really love?
1-Aug-12
Pragmatic horse people might stick to the bare basics when it comes to tack and barn gear. All you really need is a functioning saddle, bridle, a few buckets and brushes and you have a full kit. But where’s the fun in that?
Look at your tack box (or the spare closet in your house, the backseat of your car, or wherever you store your gear.) You probably have a special piece of tack or barn equipment that you would never give up, whether it’s for sentimental reasons or otherwise. Do you have unique argyle polo wraps? A bright pink saddle blanket that reminds you of your first barrel race? A curb bit that you might never use, but you hang on to because it belonged to your cowgirl great-grandmother?
Of course, your favorite thing in the barn is your horse. But what comes in second? Click “Submit a Comment” below and tell us about your treasure. Some of the answers may be selected to be published in a future issue of Horse Illustrated.
