The California Hackamore Horse by Jeff Sanders is a definitive guide to understanding and succeeding with the traditional hackamore, for all riding disciplines. Rooted in six generations and more than 165 years of California vaquero horsemanship within Sanders' family, and over 265 years of combined experience on both sides, this book preserves a living tradition while making it practical for today's horsemen and horsewomen. Drawing on firsthand work with 300 to 400 hackamore horses and riders each year through clinics around the world, Jeff Sanders offers rare insight into what truly works, what does not, and why.
Blending deep historical knowledge with real-world application, The California Hackamore Horse goes far beyond theory. It provides clear, honest guidance shaped by thousands of horses, countless miles and decades of refinement. The result is one of the most comprehensive and authentic resources available on traditional hackamore use, written by a Californian Vaquero who lives the tradition every day.
