Dy'on Hackamore Headstall - D Collection

If you are riding bitless for the first time, build it up calmly. A hackamore acts differently from a bit: you steer more with your seat, your leg and your weight, and your hand asks less but more clearly. Ride the first few times in a familiar, enclosed space before you head out on the trail.

When fitting, watch how it sits on the nose. The noseband of a hackamore should stay well above the soft tip of the nose, on the bony part. Check before every ride that everything lies flat and that the adjustments are the same length on the left and on the right.

For care, the same applies as for your other bridles: wipe it down after the ride with a slightly damp cloth, let it dry at room temperature and store it dry on a bridle rack. Keep the fittings clean and check the buckles and the stitching regularly.

This bridle is the logical choice when you want to ride with a hackamore and are looking for a bridle to match. Many riders use it as a second bridle, alongside the regular snaffle bridle for training with a bit.

If you ride mainly with a bit, a classic snaffle bridle from our range is the obvious choice. Keep in mind too that colour is tied to size here: black comes in Cob, brown in Full.

This bridle is made for a hackamore, so without a bit: the action works through the nose and the curb chain. If you are riding bitless for the first time, build it up calmly and ride the first few times in a familiar, enclosed space. Check before every ride that everything lies flat. Reins are not included.
