Classic Equine Performance Series Smooth Snaffle With Dog Bone Bit

• Mouth: 5”
• Purchase: 2 1/2"
• Shank length: 6 1/2"

Classic Equine carries a line of performance bits this smooth snaffle bit with a dogbone is a great choice. The cheek style is next in the lineup. Extremely versatile, this bit can be used for training drills, pleasure riding, or competition. The shank is swept back, like the 6” model, but to a lesser degree, which offers more leverage and control. When properly adjusted, it is still considered a mild cheek, but one with plenty of leverage for control at increased speeds. The dogbone mouthpiece wraps the tongue when pressure is applied. Pressure is also realized on the chin from the curb strap to the bars and corners of the mouth. This bit works well on well-broke young horses or light-mouthed older horses.
