HGS List of Things You Need For A Show

EmazingCasper · 04-11-2006, 08:24 AM

Hello everyone, I thought maybe it would be a good idea to make a list for everyone to use before their shows. So all the HGSers can post what they think needs to be on the list that already isn't there. And then we will have one big and very helpful list, that HGS can print off and use as the pre-show check list

. I'll let you guys start it, and I'll add my input in too. Thanks for everyone's input ahead of time!

There might already been threads about this in the past, but hey none of them are gonna be as big as this one. So everyone please add something.

I'm going to list stuff people seem to forget:

Bottled Water
extra girth
first aid kit

EmazingCasper · 04-11-2006, 08:30 AM

bucket(s) -((for getting water for your horse)
hay bag -(to tie to the side of the trailer, works great when you keep them busy eating when you wanna say braid their tails or something.)
Extra Halter - (I can't tell you how many times, our horses have gotten spooked pulled back and broke their halters at shows. So bring a spare lead rope and a spare halter.)

EmazingCasper · 04-11-2006, 08:46 AM

just naming things as they come to mind!

Old rags - (to wipe off horse, to wipe out nose, and also if your painting their hooves, you can put the old rag underneath their hoof while you paint it and it dries to it doesn't get dirt on it.)
Baby Oil - (to enchance the features around your horse's eyes and muzzle. It makes them look really pretty, especially for halter.)
Small Battery Oper. Clippers- (so you can do last minute touch ups. Make sure you bring spare batteries too!)
Hairspary - (hold your hair in place before you put it up in a net or w/e and for your boots to make them shiney.)
