I have lost all of my saddle pads 
and I would like to customize them. Where can I shop online and do this where it isn’t that expensive? Also, where can I find good quality animal print tack?
I ride english in case that helps 
Use the following website. I used it and my new tack is just beautiful!

I was wondering what size helmet I will wear if I wear a western hat size 7 1/4? I need to buy a helmet, and do not have a tack shop anywhere near me! Please help.
you should measure up ur hat its hard to say wat size head out of a hat coz most helemets and hats are all difrent in brand smeasuer up the hat and ur head and send the measurments to a helemet company or who ur going to buy it off and c if they can measuer it for u and see if it will fit or not =] oh and it better to get one with a dail at the back
Ive already tried ebay, this means a lot to get this saddle, because its for a person who has found some much stuff for me, i have to find her something!
Look on tacktrader.com, horseclicks.com has a good saddle section, equinenow.com has a good saddle section, and equinehits has some good ones.
I need a really good local tack shop around Plano, Texas, Zip Code: 75093. Our old one, Newmarket, recently closed and I need a good one to go to. I can’t live without the smell of new leather that long!! HELP ME!
Wish I could help you! Its happening all around me also, small tack shops, feeds stores are closing because of big discount stores moving in (Selling Junk) or people buying off the internet, wait until they have to return it! We as horse owners need to support our local merchants. Sure they may be .50 cents higher on lead ropes, but if there is ever a problm, no questions asked! Grab another one! Try googling tack shops in Texas. Good luck!
I’m currently training my morgan and she is nervous with bits, if I use a bit she would rear. I ordered a bitless bridle but it is not in yet. Is there a way to use a halter for a bridle?
You might try a twisted snaffle, my moody morgan actually did well with it but none others. To go without bridle, use any old halter with side clip areas. Buy a set of reins with clips on them and just attach them directly to the halter! It gives you very minimal control, so make sure you trust her before you try it, maybe on a lunge line first. Good luck!
i have wanted a horse for a while, and my parents are finally letting me get one. i am the most experienced person with horses in my family, but i have no idea what brand of tack to get! please help me!
links are appreciated, thanks in advance!
if it matters, i’ve taken western lessons on and off for 4 years
please think economically!!
For saddles: Crates, Circle Y, Martin are all good but economical.
For a headstall just find an inexpensive one that is made with GOOD quality leather. Doesn’t really need to be a brand name one.
If you could give me the site that would be great! Thanks

Unfortunately, we don’t own a horse. The only reason we’re getting it is because my mom want insanely strong nails! ( I like tack shops, that’s the reason we’re not buying it on the internet.)
Dose Tack Solutions by Leslie have healthy hoof?
If they say grooming products dose that mean they have it?
I don’t live in Phoenix, I live in Indiana.But even then it’s called google.

some shops on the last list aren’t in phoenix, never been there so maybe they are towns nearby.
A lot of times tack shops have horse care products that aren’t on the site. They usually only take the time to post the stuff that is the highlight of their shop and that will make them lots of money.
By the way, any hoof dressing that isn’t a tar based dressing (of course that will work too, but it is a little nasty to some people.)
I would appreciate some suggestions for reading material or other sources of knowledge on the subject. Thanks!
here are some of the books i have on vintage saddles.
old cowboy saddles and spurs,fourth edition by dan and sebie hutchins.
old cowboy saddles and spurs,seventh edition by gretchen and mike graham.
another good book that has a lot of history of the cowboys trappings is
cowboys and the trappings of the old west by william manns and elizabeth clair flood
these are good books but dont have all the saddle makers in them and sometimes you have to do a little more research online or finding some collectors.
