Bill prepares the rawhide from cowhides he personally processes. |
Every step of his process is time intensive especially cutting the strings by hand. |

Bill Black to me is braiding one of the best Hackamores today. He will use the best hides that produces the best strings along with several different cores that a horse likes and the rider will get the best response from his horse. A hackamore is all about the way it is made with balance and the right core. There are a lot of Hackamores out there that a horse has no use for. Bill has taken the time talking to horsemen that practice the Art of the Hackamore Training System. He makes a Hackamore that both the horse and rider will agree must be used on the horse if you ever would think you could finish him in the bridle.– Bobby Ingersoll NRCHA Hall of Fame 1996
