Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I know if the 6-inch size is right for my horse?
A: This bit is specifically designed for Drafts and Draft-crosses. For a perfect fit, the bit should sit flush against the cheeks with enough room to fit one to two fingers between the bit ring and your horse's lip without it hanging too low.

Q: Why choose an eggbutt design over a standard loose-ring snaffle?
A: The eggbutt's fixed joints provide a much steadier feel in the mouth and are guaranteed not to pinch the lips. This makes it a superior choice for horses with sensitive mouths or green horses that are still learning to trust the bit.
