    RE: [RC] [RC] Bitless Bridle - Nancy Mitts


    Susan,
    You can shorten the ring strap at the other end by the snap--it's attached with a conway & not sewn in isn't it?
    Sorry I can't help with the training part, since my mare basically ignores nose pressure & has her way with me. I've stuck to using my bit.

    The only problem I'm having with it is he tends to push his nose out
    to resist the pressure when I try to rate him unless I have a martingale on
    him to keep him from doing that. The rings that attach to the bitless bridle
    for hooking on the reins are fairly long and prevent me from being able to
    use the bridle and martingale at the same time. I love this bridle but
    haven't solved the martingale dilema. It also is much more reasonably priced
    than the bitless bridle's website. Maynbe I don't need the martingale, but
    how do I keep him from sticking that nose up and out when I rate him.
    Happy Tails,
    Susan & Dandy
