| | Does Loving Horse Tack Make You "Tacky"? |
 | | I mean a person who has a tack room overflowing with the bits, bridles, martingales, sidechecks, surcingles, fly spray bottles, cavessons, fuzzy bareback pads, leg wraps, halters, hackamores, saddles, brushes, splint boots, dented salt block holders, lunge whips, cruppers, sidepulls, latigos, and other assorted detritus that horse people yearn to own. |
 | | Sometimes, I think about listing some of the tack I don't use, but, just in time, I decide there's no good reason to part with a pony headstall with diamond spots, Monel stirrups, or the cutback saddle I had to have but never used. |
