The bit primarily works on the horse's poll, roof of the mouth, and the bars of the mouth.
The French link design is milder than a single-jointed gag, reducing the nutcracker action on the tongue and roof of the mouth.
No, this bit is not dressage legal.
You can use one rein, two reins, or roundings.
Attach the reins to the bottom ring to increase poll pressure.
This bit is made of Korsteel Stainless Steel.
Curb hooks can be attached to the top ring to use a curb chain, applying pressure to the chin.
Available in 5", 5.5", and 6".
Check the bit's fit and ensure it's the correct size. Review rein contact and your hand position. Consider a less severe bit if the resistance persists.
Evaluate the bit's size and design. Consider using a bit guard or a different bit style.
Check rein placement and adjust your hands for a more consistent feel.
Ensure the bit fits correctly, with the correct width to avoid pinching. The bit should sit comfortably in the horse's mouth, with 1/2 inch of space on either side of the lips. The curb chain (if used) should be properly fitted, ensuring it lies flat against the chin groove, and does not cause chafing.
After each use, rinse the bit with warm water to remove any saliva or debris. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust. Regular cleaning maintains the bit's performance and ensures the horse's comfort. Inspect the bit regularly for wear and tear, and replace it if necessary.
