Western SS Stop N Turn Bit

I first borrowed one from a friend for my mare that suddenly gave me a hard time stopping. Along with groundwork, this hack definitely helped! She would stop the second I asked. You don't need heavy hands with this one and I like no bit in their mouth so long as it works for us. Ordered one now for a new mare that is easy going but still needs to be reminded who's boss when she doesn't get her way. I think I'll just wrap the noseband with vet wrap or something cause it is stiff and I don't want it rubbing out her hair.

Looks and works awesome got it way faster than I thought I would

Like, would recommend. Learned product from a trainer and also a friend. Very helpful training tool.

Very handy bit.

The best hack I have owned hands down. U only need light pressure for a response. Probably not the best for heavy hands.

Great for my gaited horse who likes to stick his tongue over the bit. No more mouthpiece means no more trickiness. It's strong enough to remind him he's not in charge but light enough on a loose rein that he relaxes into a nice floating gait. My horse is more focused on the task at hand instead of how to evade work. Definitely not for the heavy-handed rider. You could bruise up his chin or worse if you aren't mindful. Lightness, even when correcting, should be the idea. I would like to see an option for a padded nose instead of the rope, but it's a great little tool.

Love this bit! Would definitely recommend it. One of my horses in training didn't want to turn or stop good. With this bit she listens very well.

Durability: 5

I have used this hack for as long as it has been available. I would start horses and finish with this bit. YES you need to use a very light hand with this bit and the horse responds very well the very first time if you take the time on the ground to show the horse left, right and back. Less then a minuet. So please use only if experienced and have a soft light hand.

Cant say enough about it just awesome. I definately recomend this product.

I bought two bits a couple months ago for western riding. I ride both western and English so I had not gotten to this bit yet. I tried it for the first time today and it was so tight on the horse that the headstall could not go on all the way properly. He is a 15.3hh TB, weighing 1,063lbs.

I have used this on a free running barrel horse that needed a break from a heavy handed rider. You have the control, flex and bend that is necessary to work through a pattern at any speed. Can really help calm a nervous horse who needs a break from a bit....

A gelding I bought years ago came with one of these, and it sat on a shelf for years because I never used it. Then I bought a mare who wouldn't take a bit, and I'm as happy as ever. Takes very little pressure for response, and lasts FOREVER. Had mine for about 8yrs and sent it with the last horse I sold (thought about getting out of horses), but recently re-purchased the said mare who won't take a bit, and I'm buying another!

I bought this a few months ago for my 2 yr old horse. He is so soft-mouthed that we decided to try the stop n turn, and it works amazingly well! He seems to like it also, as he doesn't fuss like he does with a bit in his mouth. I will say, it's definitely not for an inexperienced rider, because it takes VERY little pressure to stop and turn the horse; I can easily turn mine with the pressure from my pinky finger on the rein.

My horse does not like having a bit in his mouth, but needs help with collection, & his whoa. This "bit" does wonders for him! He has an awesome stop to him & it takes VERY LITTLE pressure to stop him. I would recommend this to anyone that doesnt want to use a bit.

I bought this as a correction piece. Please only buy this if you are very experenced and know exactly how light your hand needs to be. This is a VERY severe hackamore and can cause a lot of damage and pain if used improperly!!! It does work extremely well under ther right circumstances though. I do love mine, but am very careful with it's use.

This hackamore is awesome. My horse responds to it really well.I bought this hackamore a couple of years ago and it works wonders. My horse isn't having a fit anymore and i think he likes it as well. I would tell people to get this. I like it and hopefully someone else will to.
