Julie Goodnight Unveils New Colors in her "Rope Couture" Collection

Julie Goodnight Unveils New Colors in her “Rope Couture” Collection

 

Poncha Springs, Colorado, June 2013: Horse trainer and clinician Julie Goodnight worked with rope-tying experts to create her American-made Rope Couture™ halters and training leads. Goodnight chose precise rope dimensions and unique tying techniques to ensure that her halters offer effective-yet-kind communication with horses.

 

Now, the line includes a turquoise halter with black noseband wrapping. Also new to the line—rope reins in 9 and 10-foot lengths with color choices including lime, pink, turquoise, black, tan, and hunter green. Lime green is the color of the season and the newest addition to the rein selection.

 

The ropes and halters are free from metal parts to make sure your horse is never harmed or scared by too much pressure. “I’ve never worked with a horse that needed more pressure than a tied knot beneath their chin,” Goodnight explains. “And I love a rope connection to the bit for my reins—metal connections like clips can irritate your horse and cause vibrations in his mouth. That’s unintended, meaningless pressure.”

 

For halters: Choose the flat-wrapped noseband for groundwork—the flat, decorative knots provide the most pressure over a larger area to help horses learn where to be and how to act. They’ll quickly feel your correction. The round noseband is designed for everyday use and also works for riding. Either style is $26.95 and is designed to fit horses ranging from Arab-size to Warmblood. Draft and pony sizes available by special order. The halters are available in a variety of colors. Visit http://shopping.juliegoodnight.com  for current color combinations.

 

Training leads are available in 12 ($36.95) or 15-foot ($41.95) lengths and come in hues to match every halter. Choose a 12-foot lead for horses under 16 hands, or a 15-foot lead for horses over 16 hands.

 

Reins are $59.95 for 9 or 10 foot varieties and come with rope connectors to attach to your bit.

June 3, 2013, Salida, CO: Have you seen the new Bucas zebra-patterned flysheets and fly masks? Drive past a pasture of horses and you may do a double take—thinking you’re on safari! The new flysheets are designed in black and white to keep horseflies at bay.

 

Julie Goodnight endorses Bucas flysheets (including the newest Bucas Buzz off Zebra Fly Sheet-Full Neck fly sheet and matching fly mask) for the summer season and Bucas Power Turnouts for upcoming chillyweather. Goodnight now carries the line of Bucas blankets in her online shop (http://shopping.juliegoodnight.com/Bucas-Blankets_c26.htm, 800-225-8827) and has dedicated a page to blanketing tips and information: http://juliegoodnight.com/bucas.

 

For summer 2013, the Bucas Buzz off Zebra Fly Sheet-Full Neck flysheet and matching fly mask sport the newest design strategy to keep pesky bugs off of your horses—black and white stripes! Just like the zebras on the African plains, your horse can keep flies away with stripes. Followingtrials in Europe, the manufacturer says researchers discovered that horse flies hate stripes--enter the new Bucas’ pattern to keep your horse bite-free in the pasture.

 

According to Bucas, “Scientists painted wooden pallets containing vegetable oil different patterns of black and white stripes or all black or all white. These pallets were then placed in a fly-infested field and results showed that there were far more flies in the black painted pallets,fewer in the white but the fewest flies of all were found in the pallets painted with very thin black and white stripes.

 

Afterwards, researchers carried out a similar trial on model horses covered in glue. At the end of 59 days, the black horse had caught 562 flies, the brown one 334, the white one 22 and the zebra patterned horse had just 8! It is thought that the flies find the stripes confusing and as a result they tend to steer clear.”

 

Based on this research, Bucas developed a first of its kind flysheet with thin zebra-like stripes to keephorses free from the stresses of summer flies. This unique zebra fly sheet,which is the same tried and true design pattern as the Bucas standard Buzz Off fly sheet, has shoulder darts for extra room and movement, a stitched on full neck, which overlaps in front to ensure no flies can get in and goes all the way to theears, a belly flap for further protection and it’s made from a fine mesh fabric ensuring that even the smallest of flies won’t have access to your horse. What’s more, there’s the option of a matching fly mask, too. Also includes added UV protection.

Goodnight says that her horse, Dually has “a full wardrobe of apparel—blankets for every season and boots for every activity. These things are not necessary for thehorse’s survival but they are important to me. I want my horse to look good all year long—not sunburned, shaggy, scraped-up or bug-bitten. I want to make sure that when I load him in the trailer or ask him to perform a high-speed maneuver in the arena that he is protected from injury as much as possible as he does my bidding.

“A few years ago I was fortunate to discover a new line of horse blankets, Bucas, a well-established European company, using high-tech materials and superior design features, which keep the horses comfortable and cozy in all four seasons. The shape and cut of the blankets are far more comfortable than other brands I have used, fitting really well at the shoulders and withers, with a remarkable attention to detail. The durability of Bucas blankets is exceptional—after two full winters of use, Dually’s heavy blanket looked practically new after washing (he is notoriously hard on blankets and we have very long winters). And because of the high-tech materials, the winter blankets are comfortable in a wide range oftemperatures, temps can fluctuate up to forty degrees between day and night, here in the high Colorado mountains, so one blanket replaces the need to beswitching between a heavy and medium weight blanket.

"Since our horses get turned out in wooded fields with other horses with their blankets on, they can be pretty tough on them. Over the years I have found that it is cheaper in thelong run to pay more for a high quality blanket that you can get many year’s use of, rather than buy a cheap, ill-fitting blanket that falls apart in the middle of the winter.

“Our horses wear blankets or sheets all year long. In the summer, they wear Bucas fly/sun sheets during the day to protect from insects and to keep their dark, richly-colored coats from burning in the harsh high-altitude sun.”
