What is the Breaking Bit?
Category of Bit: Snaffle
Action: The full cheeks on this breaking bit help to prevent pulling the bit through the mouth and help to teach the horse how to turn by putting gentle pressure on the sides of the mouth. The breaking keys give the horse something to play with which will encourage acceptance and salivation.
Advantages: This is an ideal bit for breaking and training young horses. There is safety from the bit pulling through the mouth thus giving the rider some reassurance and the horse confidence in what he is being asked to perform.
