Hackamores

Horse hackamores are a type of bitless bridle that are used as an alternative to traditional bits. They apply pressure to the horse's nose and sometimes the chin groove or poll instead of the mouth. Hackamores can be a good option for horses that have dental issues, are uncomfortable with bits, or need a gentler form of control. There are different styles of hackamores, including mechanical hackamores, sidepulls, and bosals. Each style has its own way of applying pressure and communicates with the horse in a different manner. Horse owners should choose a hackamore that suits their horse's needs and level of training.
