A moist mouth leads to a more supple, relaxed, and receptive horse, significantly improving responsiveness to aids.

Boosts Lateral Flexibility & Agility: Its innovative loose jaw design promotes greater lateral movement, while the swivel mouth encourages supple flexion and bending through the horse's body, leading to increased agility and overall suppleness. Frequently Asked Questions How does this bit enhance control and communication? The Equisential 7" Shank Correction Bit features a 7-inch shank that provides moderate leverage. This design allows for more refined responses to your rein aids, making your cues clearer and fostering a lighter, more precise communication between you and your horse. It’s ideal for experienced riders looking to elevate their horse's training and achieve quick, accurate engagement. How does this bit improve suppleness, flexion, and collection? This bit is specifically designed to promote greater suppleness and a desirable frame. Its unique "loose jaw" feature facilitates enhanced lateral movement, allowing your horse to bend and move more freely side-to-side. The "swivel mouth" encourages better flexion and bending through the horse's body, while the correction mouthpiece with its port can aid in achieving collection by applying gentle pressure to the bars or palate, improving overall body control and responsiveness. What about the mouthpiece design and how does it promote comfort and salivation? The 5 1/8-inch correction mouthpiece is crafted with a port designed to offer tongue relief, while also applying specific, strategic pressure. Beyond comfort, the bit's material is chosen to naturally develop a palatable, sweet taste when exposed to moisture (like a horse's mouth). This actively encourages salivation, promoting a "wet" mouth that is often associated with a relaxed, accepting, and more responsive horse, making them more receptive to your aids. Who is this bit best suited for? The Equisential 7" Shank Correction Bit is an excellent choice for horses transitioning from snaffle bits to more advanced leverage bits, or for already trained horses that require refined cues and improved collection. It is generally recommended for experienced riders who understand how to apply leverage bits correctly and humanely to achieve optimal results in
