The Hackamore/Cavemore, featuring small brass shanks and a noseband, is a unique bitless bridle designed to guide the horse using pressure on its nose and chin instead of its mouth. This makes it especially helpful for horses with sensitive mouths, dental problems, or those in training. Let’s dive into the details.

Design Features

Stitching:
The bridle boasts durable and even stitching, which not only enhances its longevity but also ensures comfort. Often, padding is added to the noseband and headstall for extra coziness.

Buckles and Fittings:
Crafted from stainless steel or brass, these fittings allow for easy adjustments and keep the bridle securely in place.

Purpose:
This bridle is versatile, suitable for various activities like trail riding, jumping, and dressage (though it’s less common in that discipline), as well as for training young horses. It’s particularly popular among horses that have specific dental or mouth sensitivity issues.

Maintenance:
To keep the leather soft and prevent cracking, regular cleaning and conditioning are essential. For synthetic materials, follow the manufacturer’s care instructions. It’s also important to keep metal parts rust-free and polished.

Fit and Adjustability:
With multiple adjustment points, the hackamore can be fitted precisely to the horse’s head, ensuring both comfort and effective communication.

Color: Available in Black and Brown

Size: Comes in Cob, Pony, Horse, and Draft sizes.
