Default Denny's new bridle (very image heavy!)

Showing off his new figure-8 bridle. It's purely for aesthetics, since I like the look of them... but he also seems quieter in it as well, even though the nose strap is super loose.

PS - yes, I do realize that the jowel strap needs to be tightened... it's my first figure 8 bridle.. I'm still figuring things out





(re: the strap over the bit guard - he had just rolled and somehow did that... it wasn't like that for long)

I love it! Horses always look so handsome in figure 8s.
Question: what brand is it/where did you buy it? I'm loving the brown sheepskin under the center disc!

It's actually made locally by a man named Ray ... I forget the last name. I bought this one on the "Grand Opening Day" special sale for $90!! The leather quality is absolutely amazing, and it's all hand made locally and the company is called "Cal-Tack". I highly recommend their leatherwork. I'm sure they would ship out to you if you would like.
As for the sheepskin; I added that on myself hehe.. I just bought a piece of brown sheepskin and glued it on. :P I thought it would look less dirty than natural sheepskin..

^^^ although to complete the jumper look you should get an ear net! and a breast collar... and some sort of crazy martingale... and a million other pieces of tack and fleece....

upnover - I definitely have the whole jumper thing going on - and color-matched too!!! I have a navy saddle pad, tendon boots, fetlock boots, and earnet - I'm set!! I just need an elastic breastplate with fleece in the middle ;) ooh and fleece-lined bell boots.

Nice set.. Its even better that you have a local manufactorer that can make you something to match the rest of your tack! Very nice!

JDI, Denny is sooo beautiful. And the bridle looks great on him!
