Re: [RC] Hacamore riders, halters? - superpatLaurie, Have you tried using a thin rope halter under the bridle? You will see this a lot at endurance rides. That way, you can remove the bridle and tie to the rope halter. It is also good when you dismount to run or lead on the trail. You can just unclip the reins and clip to the halter in a matter of a few seconds. It is a bit more of a hassle if you are using a martingale. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Laurie Durgin" <ladurgin@xxxxxxx> To: <Ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, January 19, 2003 12:15 PM Subject: [RC] Hacamore riders, halters? Ah, those of you who do your rides in Hacamores (mine is an english or jumper, mechanical one)how do you tie at a ride? Do you use a halter under, or with? Do you use a biothane/halter/bridle? If this works out on the trail with Rascal, I was wondering how to tie, feed him at vet checks , etc.? I am using a, (not the best fitting western headstall; I happen to own). And need another headstall anyway, but was wondering what kind to get for the hackamore to connect to, and or halter. I own a biothane halter bridel which the bit clips onto for my snaffle, but I'd have two nosebands if I put it on my hack, and his nose doesn't have that much room! I saw a simple hack headstall for biothane for less than 35.00 in two places, but I'd have to get a halter or soemthing to go over, under? Or get a halter, hacamore headstall? I assume you cant't tie with a hacamore, or can you?
