There are a few people who make the tack. One
is AnimalTacker and you should be able to find her on the ridecamp advertizement
section. I have one halter bridle biothane that has separated
from the webbing after several yrs of being used but one was definitely after
the darn horse pulled back. It has some deterioration from the sun.
Not much is untouched by the TX sun. I do love it as I can throw it in the
wash machine with the rest of the pads and wash it up or hose it down. I
have one set I bought in 2000 and it looks and almost feels like leather.
One difficulty is getting it worked on locally. It takes a special machine
to sew it if any stitcheing comes out. We are still using the first
set I bought back in the late 80s. Just be sure to not get it too
big if you are riding Arabs. I am now heading in the Parelli direction and
LOVE the rope halters. Used to have a mare that could break ANY
halter. Animal Tacker used to go to almost all the TX endurance rides but
she also goes to other rides. mas
Thank you all for the help! I am now pretty confused between
the Bio Thane and the Zilco tack. Whats the biggest difference here? Is one
any stronger than the other? Who uses the better hardware on their Zilco
tack halter bridles?
Thanks
,
Linda
