i was wondering can some one use in hand bridle the same ordinary for riding i need strong one with good control.

You might be able, I'm not sure, but it wouldn't be recommended. There are plenty of strong bridles and if you feel you have little control, I would try changing the bit, getting a bridle with a dropped nose band or using a kineton. I don't know much about the last, only that it is used mainly in racing for a horse that is difficult to control.

It really depends on the horse and the problem you're having.

What kind of bridle are you using at the moment?
What exactly is the issue?

Maybe get the horse's teeth checked to make sure they aren't causing pain and interfering with the bit. There could also be other issues with the horse too, back pain etc.

Have you tried other bits or using a Flash or Grackle noseband?

whats your budget for the bridle?

Jeffries do nice bridles. I quite like the Mackey bridles too and they're very reasonably priced.

This crowd make really nice handmade hand stitched leather work. I'm saving up!
