The purpose of this combination is to give the horse more response time and mild leverage across the horse’s bars. This has made the Junior Cowhorse line a stand-up option as transition bits for colts, leisure riding bits, and performance bits for the softer, more supple performance horse.
IDEAL FOR:
• Transitioning a horse from a snaffle to a leverage bit.
• The performance horse that is soft, supple, and doesn’t require much leverage.
• Leisure riding.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT:
• The three-piece mouthpiece aids in the prevention of the “nutcracker” effect across the horse’s bars.
• The twisted mouth provides a slight “bite” for added control.
• Sweet Iron will rust and promote salivation to make a more supple-feeling mouth.
• Mullen relief mouth provides a slight curve over the horse’s tongue. This makes the bit more comfortable to carry and is considered gentler across the bars.
• One of Reinsman Equestrian’s TOP SELLING bits
• The LIFETIME warranty
HELPFUL TIPS:
• Applies pressure across the bars of the mouth when pressure is applied to the reins.
• Start loose and increase tightness for additional control or increased signaling.
• This 348 Junior Cowhorse Twisted Dogbone falls into our Stage B category of bits. Stage B is all about transitioning with the introduction of leverage and curb pressure. Short shank bits are common in Stage B.
MORE DETAILS:
• All leverage bits should be used with a curb chain to function properly. Without a curb chain, a shanked bit can rotate back toward the rider. Curb chains should stop the shank’s rotation at approximately 45 degrees.
• Cheeks are made of medical-grade stainless steel to prevent rusting and guarantee longevity.
• Each bit is closely inspected by a team of expert craftsmen who pride themselves on the quality of their workmanship.
WARRANTY:
• LIFETIME – that’s right, we mean it.
• If at any point your bit is showing damage, call our customer service team to receive a prompt repair.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
• Store indoors or in a tack room
• Wipe or brush off debris after each use.
• Check your bit before each use for wear.
