Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What size horse is this hackamore designed to fit?
A: This hackamore is a "one size fits most" standard, ideal for average-sized horses between 800 and 1,200 lbs. For the safest and most effective fit, ensure the noseband sits approximately two inches (two fingers) below the cheekbone to avoid sensitive cartilage.

Q: Does this product come ready to use with a curb chain?
A: This hackamore includes the stainless steel shanks and braided noseband, but the curb chain is NOT included. You will need to purchase a separate curb chain to engage the leverage action and ensure the hackamore functions correctly.
