Fager Hunter Hackamore with short shank is a bitless alternative developed for soft and balanced communication between horse and rider. The model works without a mouthpiece in the horse's mouth and is a good choice for horses that prefer pressure over the nose bridge and poll instead of a bit.
The short shank provides a more compact leverage effect than the medium-length variant and suits riders who want a slightly milder and more direct feel in the aids. Fager's thoughtful design is intended to provide an even and gentle effect when the hackamore is used correctly.
Important to note:
This product contains only the shanks and is sold in pairs. To have a complete hackamore, you need to add a separate nosepiece and curb chain strap from Fager.
You can, for example, combine the shanks with a Fager leather nosepiece and a matching curb chain strap to create a complete bitless bridle alternative.
