Why choose the Optiflex
-
The 12″ swell is slightly narrower, offering a more streamlined feel than the “bulky” roping trees.
-
The 6.5″ gullet is the “sweet spot” for many modern athletic horses that aren’t quite “wide” but aren’t “narrow” either.
-
The 21.5″ bar length offers a great compromise for medium-length backs.
