Although it comes in a standard \"Horse Size,\" the Professional's Choice War Bonnet features significant adjustability. The 1\/2-inch hole spacing on the crown and cheek straps allows you to fine-tune the fit, ensuring the poll action is effective and the bit remains seated properly regardless of the horse's head shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8018CHO-HL\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Professional's Choice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46634617143517,"sku":"8018CHO-HL","price":33.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/upscaled-1774910599677.webp?v=1774910599","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/professionals-choice-harness-leather-web-combo-war-bonnet","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
