Pollard Bits and Spurs
Quality "Handmade" Work Since 1990
Made to Order
Danny started making bits and spurs late in 1989. By June
1990 he created a full time business using his talents.
Self taught he has established himself with a reputation as a
craftsman of quality with a flair for tradition.Often called "The
Cowboys Spur Maker " his artistic styles range from
"Traditional Texas Style " to "Cowboy Wild."
His knowledge and techniques have been tried and tested,
making him a favorite with performance horsemen and
working cowboys and have earned him more repeat
customers than he can count. He is most proud of the work
he does for his customers that use their gear on a daily
basis.
When you order form Danny you are getting a "True
Handmade" item. Everything is hand built in his shop by him
only, one order at a time.
Function is the true beauty of Dannys work.His main
priority is always to make everything to fit and work
properly first then the silver work and engraving is just
added icing on the cake!
Unlike the current trend of many other makers he does not
use any premade pieces cut from lasers or water jets. Danny
cuts each piece on his bandsaw. Rowels are hand filed to
give them a distinctive ring. Mountings are hand cut and hand
engraved. Spur bands are shaped to fit your boot width.
Cheek pieces are hand cut and mouthpieces hand formed to
make a bit with the correct balance and weight as needed.
Ask a horseman who rides a Pollard bit and they will tell you
Danny is one of the rare bit makers that actually has a
knowledge about the needed function of a bit and takes great
pride in building a balanced and comfortable bit that will
assist the horseman in communicating his signals effectively
to get the top performance from their horse's.
