23' LONG LINE LEAD ROPE & 4 KNOT HALTER ~DETAILS OF EACH BELOW:
#1. THE LONG LINE:
THIS IS A BLACK 23 FOOT DOUBLE BRAIDED POLYESTER LEAD WITH ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES IN GENEROUS PROPORTIONS. It is made from a custom designed 9/16" yacht rope, made specifically for hand to horse training. The designer is clinician Marvin Thomey, so we call it the "Thomey" lead. WE SELL A LOT OF LEADS, (thousands in fact!) BUT THIS LONG LINE LEAD TOPS THE LIST!
The lead is 23 FT. in length and 9/16" in dia., a perfect length and diameter for training horses of all ages. It is long enough to teach ground work at longer distances, such as outside work.
The core is made with heavy duty braided polyester for control and a superior transfer of energy. The cover is a polyester/nylon blend designed specifically to be non-abrasive and soft to the hands. A feature that is appreciated when handling a heavy pulling horse.
This is a perfect hand to horse training lead.
It also features a generous 5 inch hand spliced and sewn loop for ease of changing hardware, a heavy 4 inch brass bull snap and a full 6 1/2 inch double braided weighted end.
This special designed weighted end makes it so easy to spin and twirl, that even a beginner can do it. This lead has AMAZING feel. It and the matching halter were designed by clinician Marvin Thomey.
The exterior has been custom braided to create an extra soft grip while maintaining a heavy balanced feel. The heavy weight offers great authority when carrying a wiggle down the line. The smallest of wiggle at one end easily carries the full length of this lead. This is the most important action any lead can offer. Try the same with the leads sold at your local feed store. It won't happen.
#2. THE HALTER:
It is made from a stiff, full-bodied 1/4 inch double braided polyester yachting cord of the highest quality. If you are familiar with those used and sold by Clinton Anderson, this halter is a twin. Its design discourages horses from pulling and leaning against it. This halter is comfortable on the horse when he doesn't pull and becomes somewhat uncomfortable when he does pull. Horses soon learn the "right" behavior to find the "comfortable" feel. The halter's 4 noseband knots successfully communicate cues when lunging, leading, or flexing. The knots are strategically located on the pressure points of the nose to help get the horse's attention if he should refuse to yield to pressure. There is also some discomfort from pressure put on the jaw
of a heavy, hard pulling horse.
We have this halter in every size from new born to draft, but average (average fits most 900 to 1100 pound horses) will be sent unless another size is requested on the Paypal invoice. If you're unable to place a note on the PayPal invoice, be sure to send us a message or email notifying us of the change immediately after you've placed your order.
(Note that weanling and foal size halters are only tied with two knots on the noseband due to their sizes.)
Halters are almost a twin to those sold & used by CA, and these THOMEY leads are one notch better in feel, weight, balance, and comfort.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!
