What You Should Know Before Purchasing Horse Riding Tack
Are you thinking about buying a horse? While horses make great pets and companions, there are some additional expenses you better be aware of before making such a big decision. Many of these items are necessities before you take the horse out for a stroll.
The first piece of equipment you'll need is a halter and a lead rope. They are the most basic pieces of gear required, especially when bringing your new horse or yearling home. Nylon and leather halters aren't pricey provided you don't get show halters. They can sometimes run a little expensive
Some of the items you'll need are obvious, for example a saddle, saddle blanket or pad, bridle, bit and one or two sets of reins. There are two different and broad categories of tack, English and western. English tack and western tack possess some similarities, but each is individually distinctive in appearance. English tack is often smaller. Its saddles are minimal without a horn, high fork, deep seat or wide fenders on the stirrup leathers. Then there are the Western saddles which are heavier and have a clear-cut horn, deep seat and high, rigid cantle at the back. The fenders on the stirrups and the skirts on a western saddle are sometimes decoratively carved or incorporate gold or silver accents. Within both styles there are numerous differences, so it is crucial to find what specific tack is necessary if you are interested in a certain equine event or competition.
Bridles, bits and reins are necessary to manage riding a horse. Again, there are a few differences between English and western styles. English bridles use more straps, including a noseband and a brow band. Western bridles may or may not have these features. It depends on your preferability. Bits for both English and western riding are usually snaffle bits. However, western style uses an extra bar on the outside of the horse's mouth. This is known as a curb. You'll sometimes hear bits called snaffle curbs, which is in fact different than a curb bit.
One piece of tack you look into buying is a blanket. These are very helpful if your horse is going to be stabled outside or in an unheated location. Horse owners often use turnout blankets for outdoors use since they the exterior is water resistant and the inside is warm and padded. For indoor use, try purchasing a stable blanket. You'll find they are less fitted to the horse and come in a slightly lighter weight in most instances.
