Designed by leading barrel racing trainers and competitors, the 970 Johnson Hackamore Combo offers long gag action coupled with a rope noseband for lift and control. The rope nose conforms well and works on the bridge of the nose for added rate and control. The chain mouth reduces pressure felt across the bars but provides just enough pressure on the tongue to guide and aid in flex to turn your horse at performance level.
Ideal for:
The rider looking for added lift, rate, flex, and control.
The orse that does well in a combination bit, but doesnt need a lot of mouth pressure.

HELPFUL TIPS:
Applies pressure to the nose, jaw, and poll when pressure is applied to the reins.
Curb chain tightness allows for the customization of pressure.
A looser chain can apply little to no pressure-reducing signaling to only the nose and poll.
A tighter chain will focus more pressure on the jaw.
Start loose and increase tightness for additional control or increased signaling.
The waxed rope nose starts rigid and softens over time, so you may add vet wrap or mule tape to the rope nose until it fully breaks in to reduce severity. This is optional, especially if youre a heavy-handed rider.
MORE DETAILS:
The 970 Johnson Hackamore Combo falls under our Stage E bits. In Stage E we see combination bits, tiny twists, very high ports, and other highly complex components. When youre horse enters this stage, hes asking for some time with the pros!
All leverage bits should be used with a curb chain to function properly. Without a curb chain, a shanked bit can rotate back toward the rider. Curb chains should stop the shanks rotation at approximately 45 degrees.
Cheeks are made of medical-grade stainless steel to prevent rusting and guarantee longevity.
Each bit is closely inspected by a team of expert craftsmen who pride themselves on the quality of their workmanship.
Lifetime warranty thats right, we mean it. If at any point your bit is showing damage, call our customer service team to receive a prompt repair.
