234 | 5" Mouth 3" Rings | ½” Raised Snaffle Recommended by Gaited horse trainer Ivy Starnes Used 2-3 times This bit is designed to decrease the discomfort at the corners of the horse’s mouth. It will not pinch. The extra 3” rings at each end of the mouthpiece float independently to disperse the pressure across the lip and cheeks to make the horse more responsive to the rider’s cue. The raised snaffle offers less tongue pressure for better feel at the bars and lips. Sweet iron naturally rusts into a light patina. The rust creates a sweet taste for the horse and makes the bit more acceptable and increases salivation for a supple mouth. Attach the reins to the floating dee outside the cheek rings.
