Bozo Sidepull

No, this piece is specifically engineered for finished horses. It is designed to provide precise control during high-intensity runs, which can be overwhelming for a horse still learning the basics.

The design provides specific leverage that encourages the horse to maintain a straighter alignment through turns. By offering a more direct feel, it helps correct the tendency to collapse or over-bend during barrel patterns.

The 7.5-inch shank offers a balanced ratio of leverage to responsiveness. It provides enough signal to rate and regulate speed effectively without being overly aggressive, making it a versatile choice for competitive barrel racing.

Yes, we strongly recommend introducing the sidepull during several practice sessions at home. This allows your horse to adjust to the feel and leverage of the equipment before you rely on it in a high-pressure competitive environment.

While it is specifically designed and optimized for the demands of barrel racing, its mechanics are focused on speed control and lateral guidance. It is best suited for disciplines that require similar high-intensity maneuvering.
