A 'Bridle' is what goes on the horse's head, what you steer their head with. Most of the time bridles are leather but they can also be nylon and any material that halters are made out of as well.
There are a bunch of different types of bridles depending on what style of riding you do (such as Dressage, Western, Reining, general English, Hacks, and so on). See the Related Links section below for some images on bridles, complete with labels, to help make more sense out of them.

∙ 14y agoA bridle as a type of horse equipment that is used to ride the horse. You put it on their head, (it's similar to the halter) and most bridles have a bit that you put in the horse's mouth to control them. Except if you use a hackamore bridle, which I use with my mare, it does not have a bit, which my horse prefers. Instead it cuts off the air in their nose. So if you use it, be sure not to pull to hard or jerk the reins often. Anyway, the bridle is used to control your horse while you ride them. Without it, it would be very hard to control and steer your horse.

Well this would depend on which form of bridle path you are asking about. There are two.
