At the Breeders

May 21st, 2008

It has been quite a while since my last post. The NCHA Western National was a great show we saw old friends and made new ones. The weather did not let us down we had a good dusting of snow!
From there it was a dead run to Las Vegas for the Breeders. Just like all of you the high price of diesel is making travel a bit painful. If you are at the Breeders stop by the trailer and say hi!

El Rancho Show

April 25th, 2008

We are at the El Rancho show here in Rancho Marietta Ca, the weather has been nice just a bit windy. It is great to get back on the road and see every one again. We will be pulling up stake late Sunday on our way to the NCHA Western Nationals. We are excited to be awarding a high point saddle at the Western nationals just like we did at the Eastern Nationals. If you see the trailer stop buy!

www.roohide.net is back!!!!

April 13th, 2008

www.Roohide.net is back!!!!!
Roo-hide is back online with the help of Aaron Ammendolia and his team Rebecca, graphic artist, and Ivan, flash developer. This has been a great team to work with and I want to thank them for all their help and vision. It is no easy task to work on a project like this with me on the road half of the time, but they hung in and the finished product is something to be proud of.
Thanks!!!
Our store is not completely populated with all our products but it is a work in progress. Please keep checking back and you will see our offerings grow.
I want to point out the Saddle security page. I want to make dealing in stolen Roo-hide saddles as difficult as possible. On the saddle security page you will find a link to a PDF that you can fill out and fax in to me to register your Roo! Registering your saddle is an important step in the recovery of your saddle if it is stolen. If you are going to buy a used Roo-hide saddle make sure you call us at the shop so we can authenticate the saddle for you.
Make sure you also keep checking my blog as this is where I will share the latest goings on at Roo-hide.
Enjoy the new site and I look forward to your feedback.

2008 PCCHA DERBY

March 19th, 2008

We are back home in El Centro and enjoyed being part of the 2008 derby. This year the PCCHA held, for the first time, the Roo-hide Ranch Invitational Cutting. There was a great turnout for the event and we want to congratulate Dan Russell who won the event and a brand new Roo-hide custom saddle.
As always we were happy to see many of our friends and clients as they stopped by the truck to get warm. We also want to congratulate Lindy Burch as the recipient of the Dave McGregor Award.
All the best to you and yours
