ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a control halter to be used beneath a bridle to develop and maintain correct head set in a riding or performance horse. The control halter is connected to a tie-down which is in turn connected to a breast collar or the cinch of the saddle. The control halter includes a fixed headstall and a sliding headpiece. The fixed headstall includes a nosepiece supported by a crownpiece and two cheek-pieces. Two rings are incorporated into the nosepiece on either side of the horse's head and two additional rings are used to attach the crownpiece to the cheek-pieces. The lower end of the cheek-pieces are attached to the rings of the nosepiece. The sliding headpiece fits over either the forehead or the poll of the horse and each end of the sliding headpiece passes through the rings on each side of the horse's head. Both ends of the sliding headpiece have rings which may be attached to the tie-down by means of a conway buckle. The control halter of the present invention maintains the proper head position without interfering with lateral control of the horse.
