This listing is for a Black Draft size 4 knot Halter.
The Draft size fits the 1400 pound plus weight range.
Please do not place your order until you know what size of halter(s) that your horse(s) needs. If you are unsure, please see "Halter sizing" below.
This halter can be slightly adjusted to fit individual horses by sliding the fiador knot up or down. Allow 60 seconds for adjustment. This halter is made with a stiff 1/4" double braided polyester yachting cord. This halter's design discourages horses from pulling and leaning against it by laying comfortable on the horse when he doesn't pull, and becoming somewhat uncomfortable when he does pull. Horses soon learn the "right" behavior to find the "comfortable" feel. Ray Hunt always said to make the wanted behavior comfortable for the horse and the unwanted behavior uncomfortable for the horse. These halters help us apply that strategy if the horse decides to pull us around like a fish on a hook.
The halter's 4 nose-band 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. Some horses are terrific pullers, these halters work well for those situations.
Halter sizing for a Draft size:
1. Muzzle diameter — Measure ABOVE the muzzle, around the face where the halter would sit (about halfway between eyes and nose) then add 2".
2. Measure from the front of the cheekbone to the back of the jaw (add or subtract 1/2" will fit).
3. Measure from the throatlatch to the bottom of the muzzle where the lips meet. Divide number by 2. (1/2" range will fit)
4. Measure where the halter would sit just below the cheekbone, up and over the poll (behind ears) and down to just below the cheekbone, then add 6".
