going bitless

[TddWil@aol.com]

I have a green but very laid back gelding that I would like to start in some 
type of hackamore or sidepull so we don't have to bother with a bit on next 
years rides. I have a long shanked (sliester) hack for a different horse 
(very broke but extremely competative) but the greenie doesn't need much stop 
but needs more directional control. I had an S hack but didn't care for it. I 
thought maybe an english type hack or just a sidepull of some sort. I rode 
him in a regular halter but it was like a car without power steering. Maybe a 
rope halter sidpull?
