* Bit Guards and Stainless Steel Curb Chain Included
* Even Ratio of Pressure
This bit features a fixed mouthpiece on ring sides, allowing for a slight delay before the bit fully engages, providing clearer, more deliberate communication.
Featuring a longer purchase, this bit reacts more slowly than our 7" option and applies increased pressure to the poll. It is designed to lift and control the shoulders, rib cage, and hip, helping the rider keep the horse elevated.
This bit works well for seasoned horses that need help maintaining shoulder control and lift. Horses that are harder-mouthed often respond well to this bit when lighter gag-style bits are not sufficient.
The shank promotes flexion and hip control, allowing the horse to stay balanced while keeping the shoulders elevated through turns. The longer shank is especially effective for hard-running horses that need assistance shutting down for the turn or alley.
Typical wait time is usually a few days to a week but can vary
