Greetings from Denmark!!!
Duracell an I have now been working in our new bit for a few months now and I just want to tell you how well we are doing and how much my precious boy enjoys his bit. He works amazingly with the bit, he reaches for the bit himself, when I put on the bridle and so many training difficulties, previously experienced, are gone. Sincerely

Duracell and Charlotte from Denmark

Received the bit yesterday, and it is LOVELY as well as smooth as silk. My husband will be thrilled when he receives it on Christmas morning. He has been whining all year about how much better his horse would go if only he had a Balding Catalina ... It will make him so happy to actually now have one!

You do make horse people so happy...

I just wanted to let you know that the bit I recently purchased is absolutely FANTASTIC. What a difference it has made! Thank you and "Merry Christmas" to all of you.

The West Coast Loose Ring Snaffle works as good as it looks. Thanx again for an outstanding piece of gear.

I've been riding one of my horses in the baseline correction bit with the long shank. I love the bit and she seems to, also. She is very feely in it and responds well. A very good bit for her and very well made. It's simple, has great balance, and I'll be proud to show my mare in it.... Now, when my filly is settled and in a bit, I'll go all out for her... :)

I just had to let you know how much I LOVE my spurs…They look better than I could have even imagined! Thanks so much for all your help-you guys were great to deal with!

I love the spurs. My stubborn horse and I went from middle of the pack to first place in a reining competition a couple of weeks ago. A couple of well-placed taps on his side woke him up and turned his attitude around 180 degrees. I wish I had these spurs a year ago!

The silver work is lovely, too!

Kelli,

Thank you so much for shipping my bit in time to go show this weekend!  It is awesome!!!

I love the two Balding ring snaffles I purchased on a trip out west a couple of years ago!  Your craftsmanship is superb, and my horses seem to love them too!

We got Dylan's spurs yesterday.  They are perfect.  Thank you for them, and a great job.  I thought they came out looking really good.  We gave them to him last night, and he can't wait to show them off.  

Thanks,

Dear Kelli,

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you personally, and everyone at Tom Balding Bits.  I just received the beautiful custom bit that I ordered from you on Tuesday.  The quality is absolutely outstanding, and the attention to detail is just amazing!  Thank you so much for all of your help.

Sincerely,
Melanie Ascher

Hi Kelli, 

I just received your spurs and they look (as expected) great!!!!!!!!!  What do I have to do to take care of them? Oiling? Cleaning?  How tough are the silver inlay and initials on the spurs?  Can I use the spurs heavily?   Good on your colleagues! Great job.

Thank you SO MUCH to Kelli, who helped me with my order.  I got the plain snaffle with 8" long shanks in stainless steel, but it was a special order for a 5 1/2" mouth (I have a huge quarter horse, 16.5 hands).  I got it in about a week, two weeks earlier than she said.  It's exactly what I wanted and I can't wait to try it out at the next show.

Thanks!!
Robin Bronston

I just wanted to send an e-mail to say thank you!!!!   I received the spurs much sooner than I had thought (which was great because I was counting down the days!).  I absolutely love them!  Thank you very much for making such wonderful products!!!

Sincerely,

Dear Tom Balding Bits,

Thank you so much for donating the snaffle bit to the YRHA awards banquet auction.  The gal who bought it had borrowed one of mine just like it.  Her mare had always had trouble packing a snaffle until she used mine.  She is thrilled she owns a Balding now.

You generous support is what has made this club so successful.  We truly appreciate your help.

We are all looking forward to the 2006 show season!

Sincerely,
Wendy D.

Dear Mr. Balding, 

Congratulate me.  I am now the proud owner of my fourth Balding bit purchased through National Roper Supply.  I have other bits, but none of them compares with your workmanship.  My latest acquisition has the broken mouthpiece with ballhinge short shanks browned and decorated with silver dots.

Sincerely,

Just wanted to send a quick note and say thank you for the beautiful job done on my spurs.  They are perfect!  Everything is exactly as I wanted.  Please thank everyone for me.

Thanks again!

I just wanted to thank you (and everyone else involved with Sean's spurs), they are BEAUTIFUL.  He was speechless when he opened them (no small feat - he's a talker).  He has since said they are great to ride in.  We went to a show this past weekend and his spurs were the envy of all the reiners. Thank you so much.

Julie

I purchased one of your loose ring heavy snaffle bits last week and love it.

We have just received a BEAUTIFUL bit from you, purchased by my wife for my Christmas present (I peeked).  WE are very happy with the quality, it looks great.

Kelli,

The double cross bit we ordered is great. 

Thanks,

Dear Kelli,

I guess by now you've heard that I am the proud owner of the fantastic spurs Tom donated to the NRCHA for the Silent Auction.  They are a sight to behold. 

Thanks a lot.

Dear Kelli,

Well, I got the bits yesterday and they are just fantastic.  The K2 shank is really neat.  Thanks so much again and I look forward to your next new item so I can be the first on my block to have one!

Dave

I got my spurs back yesterday and the guys in the shop did a terrific job.  Please thank them for me.  I especially like the stamped Tom Balding logo.  Again, thank you and all of the folks at Balding.

Tom and Juanita,

Thank you so much for your support of the NRCHA and for sponsoring my spurs!  You guys are awesome.
