YOR High Noon Bridle-less Reining Appaloosa Stallion
February 282010
No bridle on the horse means that all the manuevers must be asked for with the legs, voice and seat of the rider. It requires good training basics. This is a 6 year old Appaloosa stallion named YOR High Noon – owned, trained & shown by Roger Johnson of Asquith, Saskatchewan, Canada. This video shows the first time High Noon was asked to perform without the bridle. (Filmed in 2001) Visit us at www.reining-appaloosa.com

What bridle is comfortable for a horse?
February 272010
I am a new horse owner and I want to purchase a bridle that’s comfortable for my horse. I want something that isn’t harsh up against his ears (crown piece), has a comfortable nose band (is it needed?) and brow band. What seems to be popular? I currently ride western but am looking for a good, used Isabell dressage saddle so I want a bridle that will go with any style. Does such a bridle exist?
Thanks!
fortunately, all bridles are adjustable. Its mostly up to you on what style and color you prefer. Courbette bridles are comfortable and fashionable, but of course they are about the most expensive bridle you can get. Crosby bridles are also popular and affordable. I recommend a Crosby
How to wash a Big D Bridle bag?
February 252010
I just bought a Big D bridle bag, but it’s pretty filthy. Does anyone have any tips on washing it? Can I just stick it in the washing machine?
Unzip and stick it in the washing machine on the gentle cycle. Cold water is best. You may have to wash several times if it is really dirty. Air dry. Dryer is to rough on these items. And you will not want to listen to all the clanging while they are drying.
Hot Pink Barrel Horse in Nurtural Bitless Bridle
February 252010
Natasha is a semi-pro barrel racer in Alberta Canada. Scooter is a hot blooded paint who would never stop in a halter, hackamore or snaffle bit. She skeptically brought him to the Nurtural Bitless Challenge at the 2009 Calgary Stampede.
These challenges take place in 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes shows what this horse and rider can do in their regular bit and bridle. Then we switch them for the first time ever to a Nurtural Bitless Bridle. They have up to 5 minutes to practice, then must repeat everything they did in the bit. The audience scores bitted and bitless. You be the judge!

When I try to put the bridle on my horse she tosses her head?
February 232010
Whenever I get near my horse with a bridle she throws her head up and wont let me put it on her head. It takes me and my friend an hour to get it on her. Any tips for how to put it on without the tossing would be helpful.
First of all make sure the bridle fits her properly and it’s not causing her any pain.
Get a horse dentist to check her teeth as that is the most common reason.
If not, try putting a little bit of honey on the bit so she gats a treat when she has the bit in her mouth.

How do I clean a horse bridle?
February 212010
I have this very old bridle that I want to use in my southwestern decorating. I don’t want to get saddle soap or whatever they use professionaly. I would like some ideas on how to clean and shine it up easily. Thanks in advance.
You can probably just go over it with a damp sponge and clean up the excess dirt. Saddle soap is actually sold for cleaning leather shoes and boots and is generally inexpensive.
For shine, again, shoe polish. Just make sure you use a matching color or clear wax/polish.
where can I find a horse bridle that has some type of fur on it?
February 192010
My husband is wanting a bridle for his horse that has like some type of rabbit fur or something like that on it. He wants it to look like old real Indian ones, where they have the fur, knots, braids, etc on it. I have looked all over the internet and didn’t know is someone knows where I can look? Thanks in advance!
I know you can have them made; instead of searching for one already made, I’ d suggest looking first for someone with accurate knowledge of how they used to make them or what they looked like.
Even if they can’t make one for you, once you have that information you can go to a tack-maker and explain the situation.
Good luck! It sounds awesome.
