However, we always recommend checking your specific association's rulebook for the most current equipment regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eQ: How do I know if this bit fits my horse correctly?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5-inch width is standard for most horses. You should look for approximately 1\/8\" to 1\/4\" of space on either side of the lips. Because this is a single-jointed bit, ensure your horse has an adequate palate height to accommodate the \"V\" shape when rein pressure is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88-93105\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toklat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48099015360733,"sku":"88-93105","price":61.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/toklat-wes-3-brushed-engraved-offset-dee-square-slow-twist-horse-bit-5-mouth-88-93105.webp?v=1782612497","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/toklat-wes-3-brushed-engr-offset-dee-square-slow-twist-5","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
