About me & how it started
CARSON'S CORRAL·MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 2018·
I've always loved horses, and started on this journey toward "Carson's Corral" before I could even walk. By the time I was 7, I had started my own pony business (with a little help from my parents.) That was the first big step on the road to where I am today. This journey has led me to discover some of my favorite things: startin
g colts; riding & competing on my horses; learning how to improve my horsemanship, roping skills, and practically anything else that has to do with horses. Over the past couple of years I've been learning the traditional method of making rawhide- how to cure it, cut it for specific uses and cut it into string for braiding. It's a lot of hard and messy work that’s a real pain to do, but to me, the end results are what makes it worth the trouble. I'm planning to start braiding with kangaroo leather in addition to the rawhide braiding pretty soon. In the meantime, I enjoy making custom halters with braided nose bands and selling them to people who want something a little more interesting for their horses. ~ Carson Martinson
