The Use of an English Bridle

Sunday, May 4th, 2008 Subscribe To Our Feed

Thin, simple, and made of leather, English bridles are similar to the western ones, but they have an extra part called the “noseband”. The western style bridle has a “concho” that looks like small belt buckle which immediately let’s you know that it is indeed western. Both English bridles and their western counterparts, are used to control the movement of the horse you are riding. They are also used when exercising your horse, either to warm him up, or to cool him down. Bridles are a great way to have control over our large four legged friends. Horses would still be wild without them!
