These solutions make traveling to shows easier than ever.
The Hybrid Halter
Rope halters are a great tool to use, but sometimes it’s nice to have a more finished look when you head to horse shows. To cut down on the number of halters you have laying around in your tack room and trailer, look for a hybrid halter that can give you the best of both worlds ($75; shop.horseeducation.com). This halter offers noseband knots to help you gain control on the ground but is also safe to use in the trailer or on the crossties. There’s even an option to include a halter name plate for a more customized look.
