Neoprene Crupper: A crupper will hold the back of the saddle down, as well as keeping the saddle in place when going downhill. If you do not use a crupper when going downhill, your saddle may run into your mount's rotating shoulder, and /or the girth run into his elbow /arm pit area-with the potential of galling and soreing them terribly. It will also keep your saddle from ending up on your mount's neck! The proper use of a crupper can help alleviate both. This crupper has a pliable braided nylon core for strength, and is sleeved with soft Neoprene that actually doesn’t chafe! The tail loop has bridle snaps on both ends so it rides balanced and has a long center strap of black nylon webbing which can be easily adjusted either long or short for different backed horses. With EASY to use Stainless Steel clip snaps and Stainless Steel Hardware. HVF-Exclusive. To properly adjust the crupper: Square your horse up, adjust the crupper so you can lift it off the rump 3-4 inches. The loop on this crupper can be purchase separately. Item # HR-C – Price $45.00 and Loop Item # HR-Loop - Price $20.00.
Britching/breeching: This is REAL britichen that is user friendly to all. Designed with horses in mind, sorry mules, it is not about you anymore. Why use britching? Britching helps stabilize a load more than any crupper, but it also is nicer to the animal. Some horses and mules do not like a crupper, or they put up their tail up or hold it off to the side and off goes the crupper. Some critters have such a difficult tail set which makes it very hard to properly set a crupper and the animal ends up galled or better yet, ornery and may buck. Thanks to Ronda and Clete from CR Ass Ranch, we took britching to a whole new level. Made just for your loved one in mind. This britching is half the weight to anything else on the market. Stronger than any leather and more stable with ten - yes 10) 1 inch soft nylon straps from 30 to 40 inches long to accommodate both small and huge critters alike. All the hardware is stainless, no more rust ever. The ten stainless steel sliders and 6 swivel trigger snaps make for quick and easy adjustments, on and off. Gone for good are those horrible Conway buckles and dry, brittle – rotten leather that is impossible to work with. The ass strap is now 3 inches wide and 37 inches long and completed padded with the HVF Soft-Touch padding. No more cutting into and galling your animals buttocks. This most awesome of britchen ever developed by real mule and horse riders alike – we all hope you love it as much as we do! Comes in black or brown. Item #: HR-BR –Price $198.00
