"Whoa" is an agreement - an agreed-upon "treaty" worked out between horse and rider, practiced until it becomes habit.

The terms of the "treaty" are simply, "I will stop, and in return, you will stop pulling on me."

When the rider's part of the "treaty" is violated by not easing the pull in return for the stop, you get the sort of irritation and fidgeting you see here. Eventually, all cooperation and trust is gone, and anger and war begins, leading to a series of bits of escalating severity.

@nameofthepen Great comment! I like the treaty to woah!

There is a popular misconception that bitless bridles put too much pressure on the sensitive part of the nose and can themseleves, cause damage. In fact, the vast majority of horses react to far less pressure and stop more easily and smoothly than in a bit. The patented Circle-X on the Nurtural bitless stops the noseband from tightening.

Ahaha ONE MORE comment :p

I'm sorry if this came off as bad mouthing this, it's not that I was trying to, it's just there is so many factors that make this video a little less of a perfect demonstration than it could be.

None the less, I felt like you claimed that a bitless was better for control than a bit, which in some cases, yes, in others no.

I respect what you do, but I have to admit, this horse wasn't treat right in a bit, that's why he went/goes so bad in it.

Thanks for your comments!

The thing about most horses and people is that they are not perfect. Horses are not as well trained as they should be. People are not well trained.

Our videos show reality, not perfection. Imperfect riders can do better with this bridle. It's a step in the right direction - not a magic panacea.

Each video shows different flaws and different responses. In our public demos, all horses did better in the Nurtural.

I feel like this was almost staged. Like 21amizzle21 said, the horse stops at the same point each time. And is losing energy the longer he is ridden. The horse seems to toss his head just as much. I feel as if you don't take into account the many many people who don't believe in this. It's kinda obvious you're just trying to market a product.

I call Bull CRAP... She keeps stopping the horse in the SAME place... Obviously the horse now knows to stop there automatically. So this video is now completely bunk on whether or not the Nurtural Bitless Bridle ACTUALLY works. Sorry.. But try stopping in different places. Any experienced horse rider knows that horses are Habitual creatures.

I would like to promote Dr. Cook's bitless bridle too!! It's AMAZING <3

I m turning racehorses thbreed,and Arabian, into riding horses all bitless , in the open and sometime the days after the race when they still full of chemicals steroids , complete junky poor thing.They act as if they've always been bitless !it's magic ! I have never had any one of them taking off ! ever. But many riders are just depending on hands and forget that sit,balance and most of all your heart are the main tools to connect and communicate any order to a horse .

[ziegelbaum1]

of course they does !! especialy hot horses !! great great !!

[saula111]

its true that your horse responeds better to the bitless bridlee but it dosen't mean bitless is better. by the way your horse is adorable!

[Juanucho13b]

@DeathKitty123456 as any other horse. Doesn't matter. it's all in the hands and the taming and teaching of the horse.

Bitless bridles put pressure on the senseitive part of the horses nose a horse may flip over on you , but this is just my opinion i couldent image my TB stopping with this,
