Frequently Asked QuestionsIs this bit suitable for young or transitioning horses?Absolutely! The Professional's Choice Futurity Bit is highly recommended as a transitional bit. It provides a gentle yet effective step for horses moving from a snaffle to a shank bit, helping them understand new cues with comfort and confidence.How does the mouthpiece ensure my horse's comfort?Our futurity bit features a unique soft chain mouthpiece designed to lie comfortably across your horse's tongue and bars. It conforms to the contours of their mouth, distributing pressure evenly and significantly reducing the risk of pinching. This design promotes a relaxed jaw and better acceptance of the bit, making it ideal for horses with sensitive tongues or low palates.Is the chain mouthpiece potentially severe or harsh?While the chain mouthpiece is designed for comfort and even pressure distribution, like any bit, its severity depends on the rider's hands. When used correctly, it is a very effective and gentle bit that allows for clear communication. However, a "seesawing" action should be avoided as it can cause discomfort. This bit performs optimally when applied with a steady, sensitive hand.Why does this bit appear to rust, and is that normal?Yes, it's completely normal and intentional! The bit is designed to rust when exposed to moisture. This unique characteristic creates a natural "sweet taste" in your horse's mouth, which encourages salivation, promotes a softer jaw, and helps them accept and work comfortably with the bit.What size bit is best for my horse?The 5.5" size is a common fit for many horses, but for the perfect comfort and effectiveness, we always recommend accurately measuring your horse’s mouth. Consult with an equestrian professional if you are unsure.How do I maintain the bit?To ensure longevity, clean the bit with warm, soapy water after each use. Store it in a dry place to prevent excessive rusting, although some surface rust is part of its design and benefit.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): BRB-101Make the smart choice for your horse's performance and comfort today.
