Looked at it again and still love your hames!   Probably gives more than the 
'D' rings that move back and forth.   Wonder if that would work on a breat 
collar?

  Helen,

  Actually because they are turning in this picture, the neck yoke has swung 
over so it appears to be only inside on the right horse.  If you look on the 
other horse you can see the neck yoke is to her outside.  When they are 
standing the neck is is well wide enough to be center to center on each.  The 
wide kidney link allows  more movement which is nice when navigating obstacles. 
   Dave McWethy of Camptown Harness ordered my hames for me.

  Thnx,
  Jeanine

  Thanks for the picture, Jeanine.   That's exactly what I mean, but yours 
looks as if it only reaches to the 'off center' position.  (love your hames)   
I've been wondering if anyone uses a long one that would be attached to the 
'middle' position on the collar.   I"ve attached a pic of the one I've used.  
My new carriage has one that only goes to the 'off center', but want to get a 
longer one.   Was wondering if anyone else uses one that long...it would be 
from singletree center to singletree center, if it fits to the center 'D' ring.

  Helen,

  Here is the neck yoke and attachment that I use - is that what you mean?
