The HAAS Pummel Curry comb is a great tool in your grooming box which serves many purposes. With its leather handle, it makes holding this tool easy. Used in circular motions all over your horse or pony's coat, it loosens caked on mud, dirt or dander which allows the rest of your brushes to whisk away the dirt that you've brought to the surface. The curry comb also serves to massage sore or tired muscles especially on the neck, shoulder and hindquarter area of your horse or pony. The Pummel curry also serves to remove dirt from your other brushes. By doing a quick few swipes across the brushes and tapping out the released dander, this curry comb keeps your other tools clean and ready to work their magic!
