Ollie's New Getup (and show getup for Western events)

Tomorrow I am going shopping for a smaller bridle for Ollie. Since I have about 150 dollars to spend on a really nice one (and split reins), I have been looking online for really pretty ones.

(I am going to get the chestnut one). I would take the browband off for shows.

These split reins:

Eventually I hope to get these for his first appearance in the show ring:
(Probably not the saddle though. It is extremely expensive).


Western Saddle Pad-$120.00 (I may not end up getting this pad, BUT I will want a Jewel tone blue of some sort).

Martin Versatility Saddle - 15" Finished Seat

$2,812.50 (same as the saddle pad, I may not end up getting this saddle, and while I would prefer something with more silver for the show ring, I will not be going to the big deal shows until 2016, most likely). 


Wow!!! I have got to start saving up for that saddle if I am going to get it by next June. I cannot wait until Ollie and I hit the show ring!!!

  1. Tack is so expensive! A saddle is more expensive than some horses. Even so, I love your choices on tack. Ollie will look great in the bridle. Why are you going to take the brow band off for shows?

  2. Because I cannot use a brow band in western shows, only one ear, two ear, or no ear bridles.
