Must Have Training Tool
This is such a great product to have in your barn. Initially I purchased this to help with tie training for my 3 year old, but have since used it all around the barn and trailering. The carabiner snap makes it easy to relocate around as needed - until you realize how great these are and purchase multiples. The 'tie ring' works great with all different types of ropes and is so easy to latch. I currently keep one on a tie post, two as crosstie options and have multiples in my trailer for easy trailer loading and tying at the trailer. Highly, highly recommend this product to all levels of horses, but really such a great tool for those youngsters learning to tie!

Wonderful Safety Equipment!
I bought this item a few weeks ago. Even though my horses typically don’t spook at much, I bought two Blocker Tie Rings after one of my horses got scared and sat back and broke her lead rope. Thankfully, no one was hurt (horses or handler), but now I feel so much safer being able to tie my horses in a completely safe way, and I can safely leave them for a moment, and know both of my mares will be safe until I return shortly. The product seems to be well made, and it’s easy to use, too.

I was skeptical until....
It seems like it's very tight when you pull on it. Did not seem like it would slide through. Then, it happened. My mare spooked at something and pulled back. It worked like a charm! The lead rope slid all the way through the ring. She had a nylon halter with a breakaway on it. The halter did not even break. Once she pulled out she stopped in her tracks and I was able to pick up lead rope and take her to her stall.

Easy to Use
I bought this when we found ourselves with a horse who ground ties but does not hard tie. He tests it to see if there is give, then leaves it alone. It’s a game changer.

Chrome rusts quickly
Under 3 months and rust is affecting use. Bought two of these, one magnet works better than the other and tends to pop open. Rust affects use at joints. Really disappointed as I heard so many good things. Perhaps the stainless steel ones Clinton Anderson markets are better. Just really feeling not worth the expense.

Everyone should own this item!
I was tacking my young OTTB horse with him tied with my standard pony club quick release on a baling twine. He freaked out and the baling twine did not break and made things way worse. Ever since then he had been nervous to be tied and kept trying to break away. I got this. The first time he got nervous he pulled and it released and he relaxed. After using this for a week or two, he is back to his normal self and happy to be tied. It provides just the right amount of pressure. They know they are tied but that they can also get away if they need to. Not to mention, it is way easier than doing a quick release knot every time.

Great design
Feels like it will rust easily, but so far so good!

Very handy to have
I have several of these and use them every day. They are so handy for a quick tie up and easy to adjust the length . I do wish there was an option of purchasing the post screw or not

Sturdy, effective tie
Used these at a barn where I ride and loved them. Now have at my own barn. I love that the lead rope slides when my mare pulls--she panics if she can't pull away, and this ring has solved that problem for her.

You look at it and it opens
I was reallly looking forward to this. I tried it on all 5 and it is not working. Like I said, you look at it and it falls open. I didn't think it was supposed to do that. I don't know if it is defective or what. The one on youtube didn't do that. I very dissapointed that I spent 30 dollars for it. I will try it again but so far it has been useless.

Sturdy and works!
I have a mule who can untie anything and this tie ring has solved that! He looks frustrated that he can't open it and I am thrilled.

Tack Saver
Bought this after my Draft Cross sat back while being tied. This Tie Ring is easy to use & is teaching my horse to give to some pressure. No more freaking out to tie tension!

Caribeaner too small to use in my horse trailet
Hi, I like the Blocker tie ring, but it automatically comes with extra parts (eye bolt and a small caribeaner) that I don’t need or couldn’t use. I have to buy my own ‘beaner in a larger size to fit my horse trailer fittings, so I would rather be able to buy the separate pieces separately bc now I have pieces I won’t use.

Great for trailers!
My horse does not tie well which makes trailering tricky. I bought this for my trailer so I can tie her while I tack up. It works GREAT! I feel so much better knowing I can turn away for 2 seconds without having to worry that she is going to panic because she is tied.

Life Saver
I don't know what I would have done without this tie ring. My rescue horse had severe pulling back issues and he has been able to overcome those issues with the help of this tie ring. I will not tie him to anything without it!

Great idea for young horse
My young horse can sometimes get nervous being tied to the trailer at shows, and this tie ring has helped her stay more relaxed.

perfect solution
My horse stopped pulling back & flipping over. It’s only been a couple weeks. His injuries from flipping over 8/26/18 are healing. He flipped over between a rock wall & the trailer w/one leg under the trailer.

Great for my special needs clients
My clients sometimes struggle with knot-tying, so it is wonderful for them to be able to lead their therapy horse up to the grooming area and safely tie the horse using the blocker tie ring completely on their own :) A great step towards feeling more independent, and they beam with pride when they are able to tie their horse without help. Thanks!

Stopped the pulling back
Bought this because my new horse was pulling back when tied. I used this tie ring and he learned to stand without pulling back and freaking out since the ring allowed a little give. He eventually stopped pulling at all.
