This is a great performance setup for the barrel horse that needs rate, lift, flex, and control, but still needs room to stay free and moving forward through the turn. The gag acti on gives you lift and added control, while the rope nose conforms across the bridge of the nose to bring in added rate and lateral guidance. This gives you different ways to communicate throughout the turn instead of depending on mouth pressure alone. When you need to get one rated and collected, you can pick up and get a clearer response through the bit. As you move through the turn, the noseband gives you another point of contact to guide and position the horse laterally, helping you stay soft in your hands while keeping the horse shaped around the barrel. It’s especially useful on a horse that needs you to get their attention going into the turn, then get out of their way and let them finish it. Best ForBarrel horses that need added rate, lift, flex, lateral guidance, and control without having to hold them together every stride. FeelResponsive, balanced, and versatile. The gag gives you lift and control, while the rope nose adds rate and another way to guide the horse through the turn. Rider NoteA great option for one that needs some whoa going into the turn, but still needs you to soften your hand and let them stay free on the backside. It gives you enough control to position them without feeling like you have to pull them around the barrel.
