Description
Premier Equine Port Mouth Weymouth Bit Set
- This Weymouth and Bradoon set is specifically designed for use on double bridles which are often worn for showing or dressage (Elementary level and above).
- The set includes a loose ring Bradoon with a single joint that allows more movement than a fixed cheek bit and is ideal for horses that are prone to leaning and fixing.
- The single joint Bradoon has a nutcracker action which works on the bars of the mouth and the lips.
- The Weymouth has a straight bar mouthpiece that offers a more consistent action and acts on the tongue and the bars of the mouth; the port allows extra room for the tongue.
- The Weymouth has some poll pressure and used in conjunction with the curb chain, applies curb groove pressure.
- The Weymouth is also used to refine aids and to encourage a horse to sit back on their hocks in order to perform more advanced movements.
- This set requires two reins, one attaches to the snaffle Bradoon and one attaches to the Weymouth bit.
- A curb chain is included and can be used with a lip strap (not included) in order to keep the curb chain flat.
- Double bridles should be used by experienced riders and are designed for horses who already perform well in a snaffle.
Stainless Steel Horse Bits
- Stainless steel is the most commonly used material for horse bits as it is durable, easy to clean and does not rust.
- Some of our stainless steel bits feature copper mouthpieces which help to create a warming sensation and encourage the horse to salivate and accept the bit.
- Stainless steel bits are suitable for a wide range of horses and are available in many designs so that you can choose the right bit for your horse and discipline.
