Western rigging for Australian saddles - girth only Toowoomba Half Bates Rig
$161.00
GTHS66

Australian made by Toowoomba Saddlery!

The Bates Rig was originally designed in Australia many years ago. A similar concept is sometimes marketed here in the US as a tackleberry or rapid release. The special quick release Bates buckle allows the rider to girth up and ungirth extremely quickly without much effort, due to the special Bates buckle and the leverage system. This rigging can be used on any Australian or Western saddle that is fitted with rigging dees, (large dee fitted between top saddle flap and underflap) and will greatly improve the girthing process over the standard western rigging, and allows the saddle to be girthed tighter to help stop saddle slippage.

Includes on and off straps, tackleberry buckle, and cord cinch.

Includes Bates overgirth, on and off straps, tackleberry buckle, and cord cinch.

This video demonstrates how to girth an Australian saddle with a traditional Australian girth. If your overgirth has a billet strap on both sides, the procedure is the same except that the left side billet on the overgirth goes directly into the buckle on the girth. In this case the pullup strap is not used and can be cut off or just left alone - whichever you like. Give us a call if you have any questions!


Note: Colors of the products my vary slightly from the photos due to differences in computer monitor displays, dye lot variations, effects of lighting, etc.
