Easy-To-Use Horseshoe Hitch
Hitching up your horse to a post or railing is quick and secure with this "horseshoe hitch" made by Walter Major, Terrebonne, Oregon.
His EZ-Tie hitch can be used anywhere you can install an I-bolt, such as on hitching rails, posts, or corrals. It consists of a horseshoe with a swivel-type drawbar pin, and clevis. The handle on the drawbar pin is welded to the open end of the horseshoe, with the swivel pin extending just below the horseshoe. The clevis attaches to the handle.
  To tie up a horse, you swing the drawbar pin back out of the way and slip the lead line around it, then let the pin swing forward. As the horse pulls back he pulls the drawbar pin tightly against the horseshoe.
  "It's small enough that you can carry it in your saddlebag," says Major.
  Major says he has made about 250 of the units for local people. They sell for $10 plus S&H.
