    Control

    • Larger diameter mouthpieces give less control; smaller diameters give more control.
    • Wide ported mouth pieces provide tongue relief.
    • The longer the shank (more leverage), the more control the bit has.
    • A twisted mouthpiece offers more control than a solid mouth piece.

    Bit Terms
    Sweet Iron - Intended to rust, it actually has a sweet taste to it as rusting occurs.
    Stainless Steel - Very little taste. Gives a clean, neat look.
    Copper - Causes mouth to salivate keeping it soft and usable to the rider.
    Snaffle - Broken in middle. Most common.
    Double Twisted Wire Snaffle - Two small snaffles which are broken off-center from each other.
    Chain - Works lightly on the bars and corners of lips while adding some tongue pressure.
    Solid - Any mouthpiece that is not broken.
    Port - Center portion of mouthpiece. Both height and width are important in creating the amount of tongue pressure or tongue relief.
    Timing - Amount of time required from the moment the reins are pulled till the horse reacts.
    Poll - Top of the head behind the ears where the neck and head join.
    Curb Chain Pressure - Timing of the bit. Loose curb chain - slower. tight curb chain - faster.
    Mullen Relief - A forward curve in the mouthpiece that creates even pressure across the bars and tongue.

    I bought this bit because recommended for a flighty horse. I thought the quality of it was good, until after I used it for the first time. The bit has a pinch point where the bit connects to the shank, and it bloodied my horses mouth. I ended up purchasing bit guards, so I could use this bit. With the bit guards in place it seems to have the control needed, but it makes for a narrower mouth size.
