Location: North Dakota | I've asked on facebook and sent messages on Etsy, but have not gotten anywhere. I am looking for extra long latigos (9') for 3 way rigging a saddle for a really big horse. A regular 6' latigo doesn't even come close to reaching. I prefer colored nylon, but will take anything as long as it's reasonably priced. |

Yeah, I know that would be the first obvious thing, but it's a 34 and fits him great. Even if I sized up to a 36 (which would be long on him) it wouldn't make a difference for this rigging style. |

It's not my first choice, but color doesn't matter much. I do need two of them, if that makes any difference. |

| Strapworks.com carries the nylon in many colors and designs.
A heated nail or screw to poke the holes and seal them at the same time. Easiest to pre drill holes in a 2x4, clamp the nylon to the wood, then stick the hot nail through.

| Any saddle maker can make you one.
Or make your own nylon, fabric stores, hardware stores should have the nylon you can buy by the foot |

| Do you have pics, of the set up on the horse.
I had a double rigging. Attached rigging to hind, run the latigo through the cinch once, and then through the front rigging and used the cinch hole with the cinch post to tighten. My horse had a 32 inch girth and this was never an issue with a standard latigo.
