My favorite piece of equipment is my show shirt. It has been worn my all the kids at my barn and has a verrrry lucky collar. I wore it at my first show and got champion!

I will never get rid of my gloves. I got them when I first started riding at 6 years old. I’m not 13, and they are still in good shape. After we bought the gloves, I remember wearing them non-stop because I felt like a real horse-person. I love my gloves, and I’ll never throw them away. Even when I can’t wear them anymore, I’m keeping them!

My saddle. It’s my first saddle ever. My dad suprised me at the barn, I used “another girl’s saddle for one horse” and it turned out to be my late Christmas present. I really love it, because it is sooo comfortable (it was used).

I have a one eared headstall that I bought in the early 80’s. It was handmade by an Amish lady who made horse tack. It proves the point that good quality tack will last forever!

I love this article because I can relate to it. Choosing just one piece of tack is tough. Although my mare of 32years has passed, I’d have to say my 35 pound western saddle is my favorite. I’ve had it when I got my mare back in 1974, & even tho it’s been polished several times it still smells like her.

I love it because I can relate to it. Although my beloved mare of 32 years has passed, I’m still a huge horse lover, & I always will be. That article gave me a new look at all the tack I own. I’ve still got every piece from when I first got my mare, which was 1974. I just can’t get rid of any od it. There’s so many good & challenging memories, that I just can’t part with them. I loved my horse & I miss her terribly.

My Ortho-Flex saddle. When I bought it it was the most expensive piece of ridding equipment I had. I have ridden that saddle for about 15 years. It has saved me from several bad falls because of its construction and fit. I have used it on several horses and it fits each one well.

My favorite piece of tack would have to be my blue-black-and-white saddle pad. The first horse to ever wear it was my first barrel horse Pearl. It is so special to me.

My favorite piece of tack would be my first saddle. It is a barrel saddle my grandmother both made and won in 1988. She never rode in it, so when I got my own horse in 2006 she gave it to me. It is still in good shape even though it is older than I am!
