Is the one? http://www.canadiantack.com/pics/sidepull.jpg Does it pull up into the horse's eyes? I've leaned towards getting the ones with the jowl strap (not the throatlatch), like this one: http://mossrockendurance.com/images/ChrisSidepull.jpg Lisa does good work with beta and biothane, and will customize them, and hers are very reasonably priced. She made the one I use for Tivar that has the turquoise stones in the overlay. (There's a layer of beta underneath, so the rivets don't touch the horse.) I also have several of her Freedom Bridles, which can be used as a bridle, sidepull, cross-over bitless bridle (I took the cross-over straps off), and a halter. The Freedom Bridle is the main bridle we use. Karen Thomas, NC
