Be a Better Horseman-Craig Cameron

Night Latch or Bucking StrapRide Smart


A handy piece of equipment I have on every saddle is a night latch or bucking strap.  It's a leather or nylon strap that buckles or fastens around the gullet of the saddle.  It serves as a handhold when a horse bolts, bucks or jumps.  A horse can quickly snatch a saddle horn out of your hand, but you can hold on to a strap much easier.  This simple strap saved me countless times.
