Ridecamp: Re: [RC] hackamores

I use a hackamore and it, along with my German martingale, has made my horse 
much happier and much more cooperate.  Not only does he enjoy not having to 
put a bit his mouth (which can get in the way of drinking and eating while 
during endurance rides and any other time) but the hackamore seems to work 
better with him.  I use a S Hackamore.  You can acquire these at Trait Rite 
(661- 513-9269).  Just leave a message if you get the machine and they with 
order it and return you call shortly.

The German martingale (which they can get for you also in a nylon material 
which isn't so heavy) helps with his head raising up so high.  It doesn't 
seem to bother him and he has amazingly learned to hold his head much lower 
which stops that neck muscle from getting so big and getting in the way of 
his oxygen flow.

Let me know if you need anything else.
