After years of dreaming about it, I finally started riding horses late last fall. It turns out that…read moreyou end up needing plenty of horse stuff, from helmets to bridles to hoof picks. Google searching "tack shop" isn't actually very helpful, but I managed to find Luster's Saddlery. It's a bit of a drive, but has been my go-to since I found them. The staff are friendly and helpful, and willing to answer questions about what they carry and pricing over the phone. The prices are fantastic -- the same as or sometimes better than the internet/catalog shops. The only drawback is that the selection is a little on the small side, but it's a small store. For example, they only carry a few helmet brands (but they had the one I wanted, in all sizes and colors). And unfortunately for me, they don't carry larger sizes of riding apparel. For everything else, though, you can probably find what you need. They also carry a variety of saddles, some of which appear to be used saddles on consignment. Overall, I highly recommend Luster's for the excellent prices and friendly service. Since I find myself in need of new breeches, I'm going to check out another saddlery soon, though.
