Does the button make it harder to quick draw?
Hello! Yes, if it is snapped shut it will impede your ability to quick draw as it will add an an extra step in the drawing process.
@BigBendSaddlery thanks!
Hi I'm from philippines do you have a used lariat rope? Can i have it?
Good!!
Soften your hands too.
Really good!!
Really good info!!!
Really cool thanks
👍
Ole sorrel almost went to sleep. I like him
Nice work, good tip!!!
A Real hand with real knowledge
Stirrup types
Nice work, but all I could see was your hands. Couldn't see what your hands were doing.
We are sorry you didn’t see what you were hoping to. If it helps, this is just a simple three piece braid. Every fifth pass, straighten your ends. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Why do you not oil the back of the fender. Thanks
Hello! We do oil the back of the fender. We just oil the front of it first so that the oil was spread out even then after it has spread out we oil the back.
Thanks Gary, I always wondered how to do this. My favorite roping reins were made this way but thinner than the normal one you buy. Made by Mr. Davenport of Uvalde, his was Bobby who trained lots of animals for the movies in Hollywood during the 1960’s. Gates C. 🤠🇺🇸
Thank you Gary for the info. It's a neat trrick/thing to know.
Kool idea!! I'll have to watch it few times. Camera little far away from me to tell a lot.. but I can see where it'd be pretty quick and easy.. Thanks
Nice. I did this many years ago and couldn't remember how to do it. Thanks!
I always wondered how that was done! I’ll try it
Good one, Thanks
This.......... wasan "excellent" video. Thank you. Well done sir
how you feed the tail through the Honda?
Hello! Just thread the end of the rope through the honda. You can start by coiling your rope up and holding it with the honda pointing away from your hand. Take the tail of the rope and thread it through from the bottom up. Keep going until you have your loop and then recoil the rope
Thanks for all your informative videos, Gary. They are a big help.
Hi! So I have a cowhide that has some urine from my elderly dog and i was wondering if I could put it in a washing machine and then letting it air dry?
I know its probably not the best thing to do, but I saw a woman do it to her cowhide and it turned out pretty good.
Hello! We don’t recommend putting a hide in a washing machine. If there are patches or seams in the hide they may come out. Depending on size, the hide may also damage your machine. If you have to wash it, spraying it off with a hose and mild soap is best.
Thanks 👍
Thanks 👍
Thanks 👍
Thanks 👍
What kind of blue foam (I'm guessing) is that being used for padding in between the two layers of leather?
Hello! It is a dense latex foam like you use under a sleeping bag
@BigBendSaddlery Thank you!!! I have made one breast collar and thought it should have had padding. I love how fast the gentleman in the video measured things out and moved forward. I measure a thousand times, I think. I look forward to seeing more work from Big Bend Saddlery.
Front of curling under after loaning to grandson about 6 mo... Found on the ground of his stall wet and moldy... Is there any hope for it ,,???
What type of spray or other protectant should we use ?
A very, very light spray of Raid.
Reminds me of how I used climb on my horse. He was pretty tall and I was pretty small but we could get the job done.
Me too. Now that l have so many birthday candles , l have to do it again.
Neatsfoot oil is the best.
Thanks a bunch! Got my guitar strap exactly how i wanted it
We are so glad to hear that! Thank you for trusting us with your order!
Wish the front skirting attachment was in the video.
Wow!!😮 It's 22nd of October 2024.🎉 And I was really looking for something like this for last few months, if it is gonna work I'll be back and subscribe your's Channel.❤😊
Hello. I called you guys up after watching this video. I spoke with Cody. He was very nice and helpful. Although I didn't use the same methods described here on my dog's leash. I found that squeezing the cap off the rivet with a long nose plier did the trick. I'm guessing that rivets used with a dog leashes are far less quality than what y'all use. But the video inspired me that I could do this myself and I did. Thank you for posting this video and giving education and encouragement to us DIYers out there.
Great tip! I've been trying to replace mine. Unfortunately my favorite saddle does have hanger or strings .... any thoughts?
I used to cut a little bigger slit further out on the string and pass the string thru both cinch rings and go over the horn with the slit.
Thanks!
Howdy Amigo Gary::))!
I have split reins that I am repairing for someone. It also has this leather piece at the end that was tied on. One side has two holes and the other has a slit. How can I tie this together? The owner is wanting a concho type button for easy removal to switch out bridle. I am concerned about safety and possibly coming loose. I have looked at Chicago screws with a concho.
Hello! I am not understanding what it is you have to work on. Can you send a photograph or call us at (800)634-4502? Thank you!
Would love a vid on how to wrap/lace the leather on the stirrup leathers to hold the twist.
GENIUS! Something so simple never occurred to me -even tho I’m the one who cleans and oils all the saddles! THANK YOU!!! That made all the difference. 😊
I've often wondered about the impact of braiding or not on a horse's back. But what about the saddle pad? If there is a saddle pad between the horse and braiding does that help, as the majority of us likely ride with pads or blankets, or is the braiding without proper lift still able to sore a horse even with a pad acting as... well, padding?
Yes it can. Ever heard of the princess and the pea? It’s like that. Most pads are firm enough that the irritation is still there even with a good pad or blanket if the lacing is protruding down. Some of the high dollar impact gel type pads can help to a certain degree if the problem isn't real bad
Interesting. Can you comment on sores being created at the spine area at the very back of the saddle? Bridging? My saddle has FQH bars and I had to really pad up the saddle on skinny or shark fin horses to prevent this. Thanks.
@@BigBendSaddlery makes sense! Thank you! Appreciate your content!
Thank you for the info unfortunately I used a heavy hand of minks oil the paste I bought at boot barn covered up my saddles and wow the leather on the rear cantle was rotting and just tore never use mink oil past uggg I'm now using vergin olive oil and Ray holes saddle butter
Wish I’d seen this years ago. A thousand thanks for this very helpful information and product guidance 👍
Now show us how to tie a Toyota in a rope. Blah ha!
Gary can you hire me until the round up this fall
Thanks!
