My friend would kill me if I put on a noseband like that, so would my
horse. Definatley too tight and I also agree with Mic that it is too
low.....
We use nosebands with some of our horses, some have moved onto other
things.....and I really try to make sure the noseband is fitted
comfortably, I want my horse to be able to eat grass and drink with
comfort, and I do not want it too low into the soft tissue of their
nose.....I need to at be able to put 2 + fingers under the noseband.
I also make sure that the piece is not close to their eye...some
nosebands are designed poorly and the strap comes very close to the
eye...so proper fit is important for a lot of reasons.
