Still in the packaging.
Pretty for all occasions!
Some Uses and Benefits:
Rider:
- Great for 1 handed work.
- Good set of brakes or tongue pressure. Has authority if needed.
- The mouthpiece will apply pressure to the tongue ONLY when contact is made not before.
- The medium shank allows the rider to soften their hands (not needing to pull as you do in a snaffle).
Horse:
- Good for pushy horses or those that run through the bit.
- Great for fat tongued horses.
- The curb action (with a curb chain) will use leverage and therefore will ask for more attention from the horse while keeping your hands soft.
- The mouthpiece gives room for the tongue. It will not interfere with horse when there is slack in the reins. Horse is more comfortable. Able to swallow easily.
- When on contact, there is no nutcracker effect as in a jointed mouthpiece. Keeps the horse calmer!
Not Suitable for:
Rider:
- Is not forgiving with really rough or quick hands. Anyone with no patience would be better in a snaffle until better trained.
- Advanced riders will like the fact that the bit aids in softer signals.
- Horse that has not be been introduced to curbs or C ports slowly.
- Or a horse that is a beginner and doesn't understand leverage.
- Horse has to understand rein cues already.
- Mouthpieces are 7/16" thick and is sweet iron. ie. tastes good to the horse.
