Flower Hackamore - Zilco

Our expert's opinion

The hackamore consists of a steering ring, extended by two rods to which the reins are attached. A hackamore is used on opposite reins (supporting reins). It has a very powerful leverage effect: its severity comes from the support on the fragile bones of the muzzle, and under the lower jaw, of a more or less hard curb chain (made of leather or metal chain) which tightens this sensitive part of the horse's head. It is now seen on show jumping grounds, sometimes as a double of a simple bit in order to combine the two actions. It requires in any case a light and experienced hand. The leather part on the muzzle is removable for more or less hardness. The flower model offers a multitude of adjustments to increase or decrease the pressure. Supplied with noseband and black curb chain.
