22 Ft Mecate Reins

Twenty-two feet of hand-spliced double-braid rope, forming a closed rein and a lead in one piece.

The loop makes the rein; the tail is a lead, long enough to tie with, work a horse from the ground with, or carry as a connected spanker for a horse that needs backing up. Because it is one continuous piece there is no buckle to fail and nothing to drop when a rider steps down. The rope carries weight, and weight is what moves a cue down the line and returns a clean release when the hand softens. Rein length adjusts to the horse. Leather poppers at the end.
