Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Equisential Route 66 Smooth Snaffle Bit so versatile, and is it suitable for training?

Absolutely! This bit features a unique design that artfully combines the direct contact of a ring snaffle with the subtle shoulder elevation characteristics of a gag and the foundational collection provided by a loose curb strap. This innovative blend makes it an exceptionally versatile choice, highly popular for training horses or during the crucial transitioning phases of their education, adapting to various stages of a horse's development.

How does the smooth snaffle mouthpiece work to ensure my horse's comfort?

The smooth snaffle mouthpiece is engineered for gentle yet effective pressure distribution. It applies optimal pressure to your horse's palate and bars, making it an all-purpose option that most horses find comfortable. Furthermore, its construction from sweet iron is key; this material naturally encourages salivation and keeps the horse's mouth moist, leading to a more relaxed and responsive ride.

What is the correct way to fit and adjust this bit on my horse?

For optimal comfort and effectiveness, we recommend fitting the Equisential Route 66 Smooth Snaffle Bit with approximately "one wrinkle" at the corners of your horse's mouth. The curb strap should be adjusted to be loose enough to allow 2-3 fingers to fit comfortably between the strap and your horse's chin. This allows the horse to respond to the snaffle before the curb strap engages, promoting giving at the poll.

How will this bit improve communication and control with my horse?

This bit is designed to significantly enhance communication and control by encouraging your horse to give at the poll more readily, often before the curb strap even engages. This clear signal helps foster trust and improves responsiveness, leading to a more connected partnership, refined maneuvers, and an overall more enjoyable riding experience.

I noticed the sweet iron bit might rust. Is this normal, and how should I care for it?

Yes, the slight rusting of sweet iron is completely normal and intentional! Sweet iron is chosen specifically because it oxidizes when exposed to moisture, creating a "sweet" taste that encourages your horse to salivate, relax their jaw, and accept the bit more readily. This rust is not a defect. To care for your bit, simply rinse it with water after each use to remove dirt and saliva, then wipe it dry. This helps maintain its condition and effectiveness.
