F.R.A. Rose Set Hackamore 145mm

F.R.A. bitless system 2: bitless harnesses are not new! For centuries a bitless harness was taken for granted, before it was ever thought of putting something in the horse's mouth man simply put something around it. A rope as a halter was sufficient in those days and thus the first bitless optoming came into being. In combination with the supporting weight, leg and feel aids, the rider's hand maintains contact via the reins, not with the mouth, but with the horse's head. The rein aids are transmitted to the nose, neck and cheeks. F.R.A.® bitless offers a range of bitless bridles; sizes from shetty to shire, in various designs and materials from cotton to leather. F.R.A. bitless system 2: Working principle: pressure on the nose General: Horses respond naturally to pressure on the nose, every unspoilt horse will listen to an aid by pressure on the nose. Suitability: With the optoming, building a refined, very clear communication is possible. The optoming gives very good discriminating signals and the experienced rider will be comfortable with this bitless optoming in a relatively short time. In general, the optoming offers good possibilities for the use with sensitive horses and in particular when breaking in young horses.
