7-1/2" Performance Series - Dogbone Snaffle

Dogbone Smooth Snaffle Bit Classic Equine Bits The mouthpiece of the Smooth Dogbone wraps the tongue with applied pressure. 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.The 7-1/2" cheek style is the next line up in the tool box collection. Extremely versatile, this  bit can be used for training drills, pleasure riding, or competition. This cheek has a 2-1/2" purchase with a 5" shank. 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 on with plenty of leverage for control at increased speeds.
