Grant, Bruce
Written by a man who made a lifelong study of leather craft and
rawhide work, How to Make Cowboy Horse Gear is the answer to
many requests for how-to-do-it information from cowboys, horsemen
in “show†business, dude ranchers, and many other people
interested in riding horses and their gear.
Bridles, hackamores, reins, reatas, quirts, and riding crops are among
the articles of gear that can be made using this well-illustrated book as
a guide. Most of the pieces described here are made of rawhide;
however, leather thongs and plastic string can be worked in the same
manner. Clear and detailed drawings show from beginning to end how
to make the articles of gear the horseman uses to “work or show” his
horse to best advantage.
