Location: TX | I remember seeing someone set up at a big race in Oklahoma or Texas who was selling lightweight portable stall mats. They were big, maybe 4x8, but very light weight and I believe they were out of Oklahoma. Now I can't find them. Anyone know what I'm talking about and were to find them? |

Location: Texas | if those were the foam, save your money, they tear up too bad. I bought some mats from either home depot or lowes that snap together and are very light. I think they are 2x2 and come 4 to a pkg for $20 and I bought 4 pkg. So far real happy with them at shows with hard stall floors |

| I have used those little ones that snap together and they are pretty durable for the price. Takes about 25 or more to do a stall but are easy to bundle up and haul with you. They have them at Menards, Lowes and have seen them at sporting good stores. |

Location: TX | I've got the small hook together ones and they're just more trouble than good. My horses always tear them up and scatter them around, they just don't stay even with duct tape. Just looking for other options that I can easily move by myself. Any other thoughts? |

Location: CTX | I have the 4x6 mats from tractor supply. They are heavy so I had hubby cut them in half (with a boxcutter), and now they are easier to manouver around. |
