Rick Trusty, whom I met at the Martin Black clinic last fall in Pa. contacted me with information on an upcoming event at the Pennsylvania State Farm Show in which the NSHA is involved.
I offered to donate a piece to the NHSA for the Show as a prize, and Rick took me up on the offer.
Here is the bosal for the "Top Hand" grand prize. The noseband and the heel knot are coffee soaked rawhide with two colors of kangaroo hide interwoven. The core is rounded bridle leather.
Good luck to all competitors!

Here is a set of Kangaroo hide romals. One of a set of two. The California style knots are interwoven with a lighter color of roo hide.
Why Custom Gear?
I believe a lot can be said of a person just by the way they look. Take cowboys for instance - you can tell where a man is from by any number of things: The shape of his hat, how he wears his boots, his saddle design and make, what kind of chaps and spurs he wears. All these things put together make up who he is - they define him in some strange way.
Many of my customers want something special for them or their horse that has that extra twist that makes it their OWN. They want to stand out just a little bit from the rest. If you want to make a statement about yourself and your particular style, custom gear is for you.
I believe in upholding the traditions of the Vaquero. I strive to keep my products as traditional as possible, from making my own rawhide to only using natural material in the construction of my gear.
I am starting to build up my inventory of gear, but it's a slow process. If there is something you don't see, or you have questions about the availablility of a product, shoot me an e-mail or give me a call and we can talk about what you need. Your imagination is the limit. If you can think it up, I can build it.
We accept Paypal as well as personal check.
Happy Trails!
