A hackamore is a type of headgear used for horses that does not include a bit. It applies pressure to the horse's face, nose, and jaw, rather than the mouth, to control and direct the horse's movement. It is often used as a gentler alternative to a bit for sensitive-mouthed horses.
A Mechanical Hackamore has shanks and puts pressure on the poll and chin much like a curb bit does minus the pressure in the mouth. The mechanical hackamore is more severe. The hackamore hasa simple bosal nose peice. A bosal has no shanks. It is more like a halter with a very stiff noseband
A bitless bridle is often referred to as a hackamore or a bridle without a bit.
Yes, but keep in mind that a hackamore already puts alot of pressure on the horse. It would be better to stop substituting training with gadgets, because it will come back to bite you later.

A bitless bridle is a hackamore
Although many tack catalogs list Hackamores with the bits they are actually nosebands. The hackamore noseband can be made of several different things and that will affect their severity. A bicycle chain hackamore shouldn't be used by anyone. So long as the Hackamore is adjusted properly and used correctly then it's not going to be sever, but used in the wrong way and it can break a horses nasal bones.
the hackamore should fit on the horse where a nose band would go for an English bridle. not lower, not higher. the bar should touch the chin of the horse.
Hackamores are bridles without bits, so you do not put bits on them.
