Frequently Asked QuestionsIs this bit suitable for all horses and riders?The Professionals Choice Long Shank Twisted Wire Snaffle Bit is designed for experienced riders with educated, soft hands. The twisted wire mouthpiece applies increased pressure to the bars of the horse's mouth compared to a smooth snaffle. While effective for sharpening focus, it requires careful and judicious use to prevent discomfort or the horse becoming dull to the bit. It is not recommended for novice riders or horses new to bit work.What type of horse is this bit intended for?This bit is primarily intended for finished horses that are strong or may have become less responsive to milder bits. The long shanks provide significant leverage, and the twisted wire mouthpiece helps to elicit quicker, more precise responses. It acts as a "step up" in communication and is often recommended for occasional use on strong horses rather than continuous everyday use, to maintain its effectiveness and avoid habituation.What material is the bit made from, and why?This bit is commonly made from sweet iron. Sweet iron is chosen because it is designed to rust when exposed to moisture (like horse saliva). This oxidation process creates a sweet taste that encourages salivation and helps to promote a more relaxed and accepting mouth in the horse. This natural rusting is a desirable characteristic of sweet iron bits.How should this bit properly fit my horse?For optimal comfort and effectiveness, the bit should fit snugly enough to create one wrinkle at the corners of your horse's mouth. The curb strap should be adjusted loosely enough to allow two to three fingers to fit comfortably between the strap and the horse's chin. This proper fit ensures the bit functions as intended without causing undue pressure or discomfort.Product Details: Ready to refine your communication and feel the difference?
