Glory Hackamore Bridle With Reins (System 2), black

A hackamore works indirectly through rein aids using leverage on the horse’s nose bridge. The shanks are attached to the cheek pieces of the bridle, while the noseband and curb strap or chain are fixed in line with the shanks. Depending on the design and length of the shanks, the rein connection and the resulting action can vary. The wide range of shank types allows for an individually adjustable level of pressure.

With a hackamore, the backward-directed pressure on the nose is influenced by leverage. When the reins are applied, the rotation of the shanks creates additional downward pressure on the chin and the poll. The rider must apply the reins evenly and in a controlled manner to achieve the desired level of pressure and response. The degree of action depends on the design and type of shanks as well as the rider’s hand.

The use of a hackamore bridle, especially with longer shanks and therefore stronger leverage, requires an experienced rider. Only a skilled rider is able to correctly dose and balance the aids based on the horse’s response to the combined pressure on the nose, chin, and poll.
