Three Types of Hobbles I Have Used, With a Secret Revealed

There is a secret to make hobbles unescapable, I reveal this simple secret to stop hobble escape. Hobbles, what do you use? Chain hobbles, ice hobbles, nylon hobbles, grazing hobbles, are just some to mention. I hobble my mules and horses when I graze them in the mountains I'll hobble them up. When I tie them up short over night I hobble them. When I tie them up for the day while off hunting or hiking I hobble them up.

Would love to know where you got those ice hobbles. The only ones on Google look a lot heavier.

[@donkrider9666]

I build my own, I have another video posted on how I make them

That was awesome info! We use hobbles when we're elk hunting and I've seen the string trick that is genious!! Thank you for sharing my friend!

Where can a person buy the ice hobble(chain hobble)?

[@nholbrook1682]

Is it best to hobble at the cannon or at the pastern in your experience?

[@donkrider9666]

I usually put them around the pastern, that where they tend to end up anyways

Had a horse learn quickly it could run in them. Didn't stop well, but could run, and jump off a 4' embankment. Haven't been brave enough to try it since.

Yes they usually figure them out and can easily outrun you. I would suggest a three-way hobble, or a single leg picket. I’ll have a video on these soon.

​@idahomountainbuilt By "they", do you mean horses usually figure out hobbles? What about burros? Do they do well with hobbles and not outsmart them? 😝
