Professional's Choice Ranch Split Reins

The added weight in the tail helps the reins hang straight and maintain a consistent feel in your hands. This balance prevents the reins from fluttering or feeling too light, which is particularly helpful when you need precise communication with your horse during ranch work.

The heavy oil treatment makes the leather feel supple and broken-in right out of the package, rather than stiff or rigid. It also helps protect the harness leather from drying out over time, though you should still clean and condition them periodically to maintain that longevity.

These are built specifically for daily ranch work. The construction focuses on durability and performance, utilizing heavy top-grain harness leather and a double-plaited design that can withstand the rigors of regular, demanding use.

These reins are 8 feet long, which is a standard length for Western split reins. This provides enough length to manage your horse comfortably while working from the saddle without having an excessive amount of excess leather to handle.

The Bleeding Heart refers to a specific double-plaited braiding technique used on the reins. Beyond its distinctive aesthetic, this braiding adds structural integrity and durability to the leather, ensuring the reins hold up well under stress.
