If you're working with a horse that’s sensitive in the mouth or recovering from a dental injury, the Velociti GARA English Hackamore by Shires offers a refined solution. This bitless option provides clear communication without the pressure of metal on the bars or tongue, making it a favorite for riders who want to prioritize their horse's comfort while maintaining control.
Crafted with quality leather and durable stainless steel, this hackamore is built for the long haul. Whether you're navigating a technical jump course or enjoying a long day on the trail, the Velociti GARA ensures your horse stays focused and relaxed from our barn to yours.
Show jumpers, endurance riders, and trail enthusiasts looking for a humane, bitless alternative for sensitive or injured horses.
Proper placement is key for safety. The leather noseband of the Velociti GARA English Hackamore should sit on the solid part of the nasal bone, roughly two fingers' width above the soft cartilage of the nose to avoid restricting breathing or causing nerve damage.
While this hackamore is excellent for jumping and trail, it is generally not legal for USEF or British Dressage competitions where a bit is required. Always check your specific discipline's rulebook before heading to the show ring.
The 170mm shank provides moderate leverage by applying simultaneous pressure to the bridge of the nose, the poll, and the chin groove, offering more control than a sidepull but a milder action than longer-shanked German models.
