I'm trying out running my mare in a hack and borrowed a friend's Ugly bit.  So far the mare works great in it!  I tried but friend won't sell me the hack. Darn it! Is there anyone out there that still makes them?

 Same look. Seems like the shanks on mine are a little longer. Who is it making these on Facebook?

He is no longer making them. His uncle is the original maker and gave him the specs to make them. It's Cowjazz's son.

That would be awesome!  I'm sure she's very organized and would appreciate one less item cluttering up and collecting dust ;

Was it one that CowJazz's son made or one that the original maker made for you?

I just talked to her and she is using it after I had suggested trying it on her other horse. Sorry.

They advertised it as made by Steve. And as you know the last 10 I sold where his last ones.

 I am grateful too! Vegas runs in the Ugly so I am very happy to have been a purchaser in that last batch ever made.

 Why did he stop making them? Surprised no one picked up the design to keep making them. Sounds like there is still a market for them.

There is a market yes, but I don't think I would buy one that wasn't original... IMO
