The whole horse looks so stiff and tense in this picture, he's sweating like hell and all those veins being visible is not a goo sign, either, his body language screams "take that asshole off of me".
Someone like that should not be allowed to ride horses, if you can call what he does riding... Poor horse. Hope he never had to bear that guy again. Or any other horse.

The bit is probably a curb which is one of the harshest bits out there, reason why must horses make the expression they are in pain (which technically they aren't-they react when the bit is pulled against there mouth).
A snaffle would have been fine probably, but it's obvious he's using leg cues which is better than just straight curb.
If you want to know the harshest bit (which a horse literally has to be trained for years just to have this bit in their mouth) is a spade bit. (Here: [link] )
Hackamores do in fact break horses noses, but it's also how you hard you pull, if you had a horse with the softest nose and/or completely leg cued trained then hackamores are actually the perfect type of bridle to use. Though if not set where they are suppose to be, that's when their noses get broken.
.... Sorry for drabbling on and on o-o

Haha oh thank goodness I didn't get in trouble xD
Well interesting fact, the spade bit doesn't hurt the horse, until you put one in without any training.
That doesn't sound good~ something must be wrong with the bit then~ sometimes a horse has a very sensitive mouth and doesn't need a curb bit (since it's the harshest bits in the Western riding). But I can't tell what bit he's using. It also may be if it's too tight at the mouth~ or something wrong with the horse's teeth.
Haha, at Westernaires we ride horses bareback with wires around their necks (does not hurt them at all) and then jump xD It's so much fun~ if you got to YouTube and type in Westernaires Red Liberty you can see what I mean~
Some reason I slip off fat round horses yet stay on the skinny ones quite well xD

Yeah, I used to ride in a Hackamore bridle, but someone told me that if you pull too hard, it can break part of their nose. I started using this. --->[link]

Yes, I use them but properly little camands no yanking on the bit or anything, thay work nicely in the right hands. But some horses don't take to bits and a bitless briddle is good, My mare is one of those horses that can't be with out a bit when I ride her.
