[QUOTE="hayray, post: 495599, member: 3046"] Ok, this horse board is about dead, so I decided to post a topic to liven things up a bit. How about bits? So what type of bits (including snaffel mouth pieces) or hackemores (bosals, mechanical hacks - etc.), gags, mulen mouths etc, does everybody use and for what reason and including what stages of training as most people will graduate to differnet levels? I myself usually train in a double bridle, I like to have the curb and the snaffle cause I feel pretty inefficient having one with out the other but If I had to choose only one bit I would pick a curb over all the other types of mouth pieces as most horses other than race horses respond and understand leverage type mouth pieces more than direct pressure mouth pieces such as snaffles when combined with inderect and neck rein type rein effects.
