What is it called when you shave the horse's mane right behind the ears?
The bare spot where you shave a horse behind the ears is called a "bridle path". It has that name because it clears a path on the horse's neck for the bridle to be worn without getting tangled in the mane. There are different styles of bridle paths, from only cutting a tiny bare spot, to shaving the mane from ears to half-way down the neck. When the entire mane is shaved off, the mane is "roached." So when you shave the horse's mane right behind the ears, it's called "cutting a bridle path." And when you shave the entire mane off, it's called "roaching the mane."
When you clip or shave part of a horses mane what is it called?
When the whole mane is clipped this is called "roach" or roaching the mane. Arabians do a bridle clip half way back or about 1/2 the mane from the ears back toward the whithers is clipped. Because the Arab has a beautiful, arched neck this accentuates one of his best features. On most horses though, the 'bridle path' which is what it is called, trimming the 'bridle path' is about 2-4 inches. A good rule of thumb is to gently take your horses' ear and bring it back until the tip touches his poll (horse's head right behind the ears). Where the tip comes to, that's as far back to clip for the bridle path. This bridle path makes a smooth, flat place for the top of the headstall (top part of bridle) to rest while the bridle is on the horse's head. It is more attractive, more comfortable and the bit will rest in the horses' mouth better with a neatly clipped bridle path. Note of Interest:Roping horses used to routinely have a 'roached' mane. This kept the mane out of the way as the rider looped and threw to lasso the calf. Styles have now changed and roping horses have manes like other horses.
