MECATE REINS

 

Clinton’s Mecate Reins are a must-have if you’re serious about applying the Method! These 22-foot reins provide easy-to-adjust loop reins as well as a built-in lead rope you can use to tie or work a horse from the ground. Combine with our slobber straps to provide immediate relief from pressure for your horse, which will speed up the training process.

Key Features:

Built-In Lead Rope

• No need to carry a halter or lead rope on a trail ride.
• Use the end of the mecate to safely tie your horse up with the bridle – convenient for trail riding!
• If you’re riding and your horse acts up, you can safely dismount and move his feet from the ground to get him under control.

Constructed From High-Quality Marine Yachting Rope

• Feels soft, pliable and supple in your hands.
• Perfect weight, not too light and flimsy, but not heavy either.
• Will not get slippery when wet or sweaty.
• Durable and long lasting.

Easily Adjustable

• Adjust the reins to fit every horse, from a short-necked horse to a long-necked horse and everything in-between.

Weighted End

• Great to use as a spanker to encourage the horse’s feet to move when under saddle.

Hand-Crafted

• Each rein is hand-spliced to Clinton’s exact specifications and inspected to meet his high standards of performance.
