Learn what slobber straps are, how they’re used with mecate reins and snaffle bits, and why they matter for developing feel and timing in western horsemanship.

When it comes to leverage bits — such as pelhams, kimberwicks, and Western curb bits — the curb chain plays an essential role in how the bit functions.

Most English saddles feature a two-flap design—a sweat flap underneath and an outer flap that covers the billets. This style provides versatility and is commonly used across dressage, jumping, and all-purpose saddles.

I always love a science experiment! I had a very rusty bit come in, and I should have taken a before photo, but I didn't. I wanted to see if we could clean it up a bit. Hahaha, what a fun pun.

When measuring a western saddle seat, start at the center of the pommel/swell and measure straight back to the top of the cantle.

If you’ve ever spent time breaking in a new Western saddle, you know the struggle of stiff stirrup fenders. That constant fight to keep your feet in the right position can lead to knee and ankle pain and messy communication with your horse.
