Good morning.

Speaking of halters, any of you guys ever use a rope halter? They're my favorite type.

Those halters are good to have... and easy to pack long on trail rides. All my trail riding buddies use them.

That is the type halter that we are speaking of. It's my favorite too.

The link that Miss Target posted calls it the "Be Nice Halter". Personally, I don't like that name for them. Rather misleading. Not that they're NOT nice. I just don't care for all the PC stuff that implies.

On trail rides for lunch stops, rope halters are great.
Not as heavy and bulky as the nylon or leather to carry.
The halter/bridle combos would be ideal, but I never got one.

Yeah, I use these when I'm doing on-lead or lungeline work. I think the horse gets a better feel for what you want. Plus, you can adjust the knots to make them fit better. Mine doesn't have the noseband like that though. I keep some of the others around though coz alot of people don't know how to tie 'em properly.
