Below are two diagrams of proper fitting halters.

Horse

Long Ear

1) The nose measurement should be done one inch below the cheek bone and completely around the nose.

2) The poll measurement is done at one inch below the cheek bone, up and over the poll to the same spot on the other side.

I like snug measurements from you and I will allow a couple of inches for comfort.

I suggest you take a few more measurements.

Although some horses have irregular shaped heads.  This mainly applies to mini horses and all long ears, as God made them special and each one unique.

One that is too low on the nose or one that is too high,
will not be as effective, as one that fits just right.

You can never go wrong taking measurements.
Just email them to me along with your order.
