One-ear headstalls are attractive and easy to put on your horse, making them a popular option for many Western riders. These simple headstalls consist of a single, adjustable headstall strap that runs from the bit over your horse’s poll and an ear loop that keeps the bridle properly positioned. The earpiece is not fixed to the bridle, so you can slide it to fit your horse. Generally, one-ear headstalls do not have throat latches.

 

We carry sliding ear headstalls that are appropriate as work tack as well as competition quality headstalls from your favorite Western equestrian brands, including Professional's Choice, Martin Saddlery, Circle Y, ClTory Leather, and Weaver Leather. Traditionally, one-ear headstalls are used in conjunction with leverage bits, such as Western curbs. The leverage action of curb bits puts pressure on the horse’s poll via the cheek pieces and headstall strap when the rein aids are used; this tightens the fit of the headstall and ensures that it will remain properly in place. We recommend using a browband headstall with a throatlatch for riding in Western snaffle bits.
