The 5/8" harness leather is thick enough to last for years, yet soft enough to prevent rubbing or pressure points on your horse's poll and cheeks.Why Riders Choose the Stacy Westfall ProTack HeadstallBest ForPerformance riders and professional trainers looking for a high-quality headstall that's ready to use immediately and transitions seamlessly from training pen to show ring.Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: Will this headstall fit my horse?The Weaver Stacy Westfall ProTack Headstall is sized for the average horse, fitting most Quarter Horses, Paints, and Thoroughbreds between 14.2 and 16 hands. The bit-to-bit measurement over the crown is 43.5". We recommend measuring your current bridle at the cheek piece holes you typically use to confirm the fit before ordering.Q: How durable is the hardware on this headstall?Very durable. The headstall features custom Jeremiah Watt stainless steel conchos and buckles, which are specifically designed to resist rust and corrosion while maintaining their detailed floral engraving over years of use. The nickel brass spots add additional reinforcement at high-stress points.Q: Does this headstall really not need a break-in period?Correct — the four-step finishing process (oiling, butter-dressing, and hand-rubbing) is done at the factory, so the Hermann Oak harness leather arrives already supple and flexible. You can tack up and ride the same day it arrives without worrying about stiff leather causing discomfort to your horse's poll or face.
