Bosal 5/8 Inch #HU2

Description & choices:

We have this hackamore available in a variety of patterns which may include all rawhide, all kangaroo, rawhide body with kangaroo nose button and heel knot or kangaroo body with rawhide nose button and heel knot. Call us at 832-529-9226 to learn which patterns we have available at the time of your order. If we do not hear from you, we will choose the pattern.

Bosal size: The 5/8 Inch Bosal is hand hand braided of hand beveled rawhide and or kangaroo for a smooth finish. The core is 12 plait and the 7 inch nose button is 20 plait. At 5 inches in width between the hanger buttons this bosal is available in 10, 11 & 12 inch lengths from top to bottom (see picture for a guide to sizing). General recommendations for bosal length: the 10 inch bosal will fit a horse with a small muzzle, usually those 14.2 hands and under that weigh 900 lbs. or less. The 11 inch bosal will fit a medium size muzzle and will fit the majority of horses. The 12 inch bosal is made to fit a larger horse, generally those horses 15.2 hands and over that weigh 1250 lbs. or more, but is dependent on muzzle size. Call to see if we currently have the size you need available.

Heel knot: The heel knots on all Dennis Moreland Tack Bosals are heavy to give instant release when the pressure on the mecate is released. A special addition to all Dennis Moreland Bosals is the spacer inside the heel knot, between the cores, which gives the mecate space to lay correctly. This is a very nice improvement over bosals with no spacer.

Hanger: This bosal comes with a handmade 3/8 inch Latigo California Style Hanger. The hanger is hand edged, rubbed, and waxed.

Mecates: You may buy the bosal without a mecate or with one of 3 mecate options: the DMR5 Nylon Mecate or the #DK3 or #DK5 Mane Hair Mecates (select in the dropdown above).

#DMR5 Mecate: The #DMR5 mecate is made of round 5/8 inch brown braid on braid or tri-color nylon rope with a tassel at one end and a 5/8 inch leather popper at the opposite end. It is 22 feet long. For more info click #DMR5 Round 5/8 inch Nylon Mecate.

#DK3 and #DK5 Mecates: These Mecates are made of six strands of horse mane hair. They have been firmly twisted by hand on a horse hair core to 1/2 inch (#DK3) or 5/8 inch (#DK5). They will meet the requirements of refined feel for even the most discriminating horseman or horsewoman. Either mecate is 22 feet long. There are various colors available including sorrels, greys, blacks and whites. Please call for color availability. If we don’t hear from you we will choose the color. For more info click #DK3 1/2 inch 6 strand Horse Mane Hair Mecate or #DK5 5/8 inch 6 strand Horse Mane Hair Mecate. We will be happy to tie your mecate to your bosal when you purchase them together but you may need to adjust the wraps to fit your horse after you receive it.

To summarize: we have a variety of patterns, sizes and cores available. When you order please call us at 832-529-9226 or email info@dmtack.com to learn what is in stock. If we don’t hear from you we will choose the bosal for you.
