In addition to up to 50 percent off “everything western”, there will be drawings every hour for boots, hats, jeans, shirts, reins, bridles, stable supplies, supplements – it’s amazing. To enter, you have dress western – “either a pair of Wrangler jeans, western boots, a western shirt, or a cowboy hat.” And this is the time to act if you’ve been thinking about buying a western saddle because Broken Horn will pay the sales tax! Plus, if the saddle is over $600, Broken Horn will provide a free saddle pad. Check out the centerfold ad for Broken Horn on pages 48-49 for all the details!
