halter w/ clip on reins vs. bitless bridle

Oh I have no idea. I would have to look it up.

You'd also need something to melt the ends of the rope.

A lighter of course! Depends on the rope. Super glue also works pretty well.

Anyone ever use one? It doesnt slide up the horse's face, and there is no knot under the chin etc. here is a link:

The Aeron Riding Halter Natural Horsemanship

I've got an Aeron Riding Halter. It is OK, but nothing special. The same basic design is being sold by a number of people. At $35, it is overpriced for the market. I now mostly ride her using a less expensive halter with a thinner rope, and I can't tell any difference in effectiveness or durability. Please ignore me...this picture was taken shortly after I took up riding. Bad as I still am, I'm doing better than that.

Because of this thread and my constant search for a good hackamore, I'm actually making an Indian bosal today. Measured my horse's nose with a coat hanger (that he kept trying to eat), and I'm about to leave and get some good rope from the store. ;)

The Aeron riding halter looks like what I'd want to make. There is some nice green and black rope at walmart for cheap :)
ShinaKonga-Yay for cheaper homemade stuff! Lol. Let me know how it goes
