About this horse head and compass rose mounted design
Mounted units ride where vehicles can't: trails, ridgelines and crowds. This design says as much with a horse head over mountains and a compass rose for navigation. Black, silver and gold give it a formal edge that holds up on a riding jacket at a parade and on a search-and-rescue callout alike. It also leaves room for a posse or reserve name in the top line.
Order it as shown or customize it: put your posse or unit name in the three lines, redraw the horse to match a unit mount's markings, or swap the mountains for desert or prairie. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Sheriff mounted posse patch questions
Can the horse look like one of our unit's mounts?
Yes. Send a photo and we redraw the head with that horse's blaze or markings at no art charge, shown on the proof.
Can the top line read 'Posse' instead of a place name?
Yes. All three lines restitch to your wording — posse, mounted unit, reserve or search-and-rescue — on the 4-hour mockup.
Can the mountains be changed to desert or prairie?
Yes. The backdrop redraws to your terrain at no art charge.
What size works on a western hat?
About 2.5 inches wide. We simplify the compass rose slightly at that size and show the result on your proof.

Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the horse, mountains or compass, pin notes on the lettering and switch colorways. The marked-up design travels with your quote.
