Frequently Asked QuestionsHow does the smooth dogbone design ensure comfort for my horse?The smooth dogbone mouthpiece is a double-jointed snaffle design that gently distributes pressure across your horse's tongue and bars. This even pressure, combined with its smooth contour, minimizes direct pressure points, making it a particularly gentle option that encourages acceptance, especially for sensitive horses. As a snaffle, it works on direct pressure without leverage, further contributing to its mildness.Why is sweet iron used in this bit, and will it rust?Yes, the sweet iron material is designed to rust slightly when exposed to moisture. This is intentional! The oxidation process creates a sweet taste that many horses find highly palatable, encouraging salivation. The copper inlays also contribute to this effect, helping to keep your horse's mouth soft, moist, and more responsive to your aids.What are the benefits of the D-ring cheek pieces?The D-ring cheek pieces provide excellent lateral containment and stability in your horse's mouth. This design helps prevent the bit from being easily pulled through the mouth, ensuring your turning aids are clearer and more direct. Unlike some loose ring snaffles, the fixed D-ring also helps prevent pinching the horse's lips, enhancing overall comfort and communication.Is this bit suitable for training green or young horses?Absolutely! The combination of its gentle smooth dogbone mouthpiece and the clear, direct communication offered by the D-ring makes this bit an excellent choice for introducing young horses to the bit or for training green (inexperienced) horses. It helps them comfortably yield to bit pressure and establishes a foundation of clear communication, setting them up for success.How should I clean my Pro Choice Equisential bit?After each use, simply rinse your bit thoroughly with water to remove any debris or saliva. Occasionally, you can scrub it gently with a mild, non-abrasive soap and water to ensure it remains clean and hygienic for your horse.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): EQB-810Ready to transform your riding experience and deepen your connection with your horse?
