Reinsman’s Bit Stages approach focuses on the horse and rider in their specific situation, as different events and circumstances call for different bit choices. The bit you use to trail ride in, may not be the best choice for the arena, or for when your junior rodeo star steps up on mom or dad’s horse. Same horse, different situation or rider, different bit. It’s about achieving effective communication and control in each individual situation. The Bit Stages…

Coolhorse is proud to have Susan Pool heading up our Champion's Choice buckle and award division. Rodeo and stock show events are near and dear to her heart, and always have been.
