HELPFUL TIPS:
• Adjust the cheek pieces and bit placement for your horse. Ideally, start off loose and tighten for added control and cueing.
• The browband piece should rest lightly across your horse’s forehead and should sit about 1/2"-1" below the front of the ears. Too low may make the throat latch too tight.
• Adjust the throat latch so that you can fit 2-4 fingers between it and the underside of your horse’s jaw. This is important as a too tight fitting throat latch could prohibit the horse’s breathing.
MORE DETAILS:
• Browbands are a great option for snaffles and leverage bits!
• Browbands promote added safety and will be a great choice for horses that rub their head while bridled. The throat latch and browband can help prevent the headstall from getting rubbed off.
