Hi Everyone! Great to see so much going on with this bridle finally. I have 2 horses both in the bitless bridle for 3 years now. Anyone ever have trouble...
I felt - as a matter of fact I know - that the browband was too short on my driving bridle, but the deficiency was disputed and I ended up replacing it with my...
I just posted a couple of pics to the photo section in an album titled Barb Lee. One is a shot of my Morgan gelding, Gizmo, pulling a ca. 1920 Australian...
Hi Barb: Nice horse?!! Being a morgan owner I'm somewhat biased. Have you changed your mind re the placement of the lines? You had concerns about putting...
Top of the day to you all out there, Wanted to share the good news with you. As we all know, most people resist the "scary" idea of riding in a bitless bridle....
Hi Margaret, I actually put the lines through the terrets just for the photo. I was taking pics for the EasyBoot people and wanted everything to look tidy. I...
Hi Barb: Well I did sort of notice that the collar seemed to be pressing into his windpipe area, figured that the collar might be too small, but I sort of...
Margaret, "Chain draught" or draft is really where it all started. The yoke setup that we created to convert our meadowbrook was simply because the basket is...
Hi Cathie, I have been using EasyBoots for a couple of decades. I have never been an adherent to any philosophy of shoeing or non-shoeing. I just like the...
I don't know whether this list is dedicated only to the Dr. Cook bitless bridle, or if various other forms of bitless are included. But I'd like to open a...
Hi Barb, I actually own a sensitive headed paint, she is in the photo Gallery. When I first tried Dr. Cooks bitless on her for ground driving, she did NOT like...
Hi Dee, Thanks for sharing, I tried to respond to this last night, and I erased everything! I am a bit challenged when it comes to computers. Love to hear the ...
Barb, my older filly does get itchy with the Beta material and I've debated trying the leather to see if it helps. She is a buckskin and is generally more...
I did purchase a sheepskin noseband and tried it once, but I was afraid it was possibly affecting her ability to see the ground below her while picking through...
I am not a horse owner just a horse lover but i wanted to compliment the people who are using the Bitless Bridles on their Horses. I looked at the pictures in...

I have a horse that was started in a bitless 1 year ago. I'm woking on her to have a relaxed jaw and flexion at the poll, but with no success yet. Are you...
Yes, it is possible. Because both of the horses I ride with the Bitless (an Icelandic and a Fjord) can do both veritcal and laterial flexion in a relaxed...
I thought I would give an update on my experience with the bitless bridle. Some stroke of the Cosmos dropped a wonderful riding companion into my life just at...
Introduction time! I am happy to find your Group. I am a novice with horses, however I purchased this evening a Bitless Bridle from Dr. Cook for my 20 year old...
Hi: I would like to welcome you to the group. I myself am fairly new to this list. I only drive and have only done so for a few months with the bitless. I...
I would like ... Where are we, as in geographic location, or where are we, as in why aren't we talking?!! Sheree In Georgia, just riding and enjoying our two...
Got to have a job to afford the horses! LOL. I don't think I will ever ride with a bit again. My horse is really happy and relaxed with his bitless and I relax...
I'm in Michigan and I have the bitless bridle for my 8 year old Morgan mare that never was happy with the bit so she was always stiff and argumentative under...
Hi, I was just wondering if this group is just for the Dr Cook type bitless bridles, or all types? I ride with an 'S' hackamore. Is there anyone who has used...
