The Dutton Eventing Team YouTube Channel published a video of Jennie Brannigan discussing her use of hackamores on Indie and Cambalda. While Mark Phillips has teased the True Prospect Farm team about their favoritism toward hackamores, Jennie said she finds this type of bit helps her horses jump better behind. While Phillip Dutton is a big believer in the “less-is-more mentality” when it comes to bitting and often uses basic snaffles, Phillip also uses hackamores regularly on his rides. Watch the video to learn more about how the True Prospect team uses hackamores. Weigh in, Eventing Nation. Do you use hackamores?
