I really like a Jim warner cause you can get some rate and set, but also keep that bend!

I like the Jim Warner hack, I like how the shanks swivel but thats not the only reason, its just such a balance hack..

The Ugly hack and the Jim Warner...short shanked. I also had good luck with the Steivers combo hack with the chain mouth piece. Depends on the horse for me.

Thank you all for your input. This horse has a little bit ( according to the vet ) of TMJ going on and his first barrel is hit or miss. You can NOT touch him running to the first or he just shakes his head and goes by. If we don't touch him at all, he'll wrap it 80% of the time. So figured maybe he would like a hackamore better to eleviate the pressure on his mouth with the slight TMJ. So we just ordered both the Bozo and Jim Warner short shank rope nose. We'll see how it goes or which one he likes better. If any. lol

I like my clampit the best, I can get more flex with it than with any other hack.

I would be getting his TMJ problem fixed.

I love the Carl jack from l&w bits. It's more of a side pull and I love it

My Bozo hack fell apart the first run I made in it.  Scary when your hack falls apart on the first barrel . .

I use Stivers and JW, I'll use both on the same horse and see which one the horse works best in.

I've only used 2, Jim warner and little s. Never had a need to try others but they have worked great for when I've needed them!

Beetle hack. The one I have has a smaller space between the two shanks on it. The one I have has no makers mark but my mare loves it.

 Clampitt hack

The Clampitt hack looks interesting to me. What type of horses work well in it, and what makes a person decide to take the bit out of their mouth? I'm not a hack person, so any information is useful.

  First use was on an ex race horse. She was way calmer than with any bit. I've ridden several in it.

Thanks. I'm thinking about one for an ex-racehorse as well, and possibly for an older gelding just to give his mouth a break. Still have plenty of whoa if you need it?
