The Horze Jointed Apple Loose Ring Snaffle Bit is crafted to balance effective rein aids with horse comfort. Its jointed apple-shaped mouthpiece distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, reducing hard contact often associated with simpler mouthpieces. The loose rings allow the bit to move freely in the mouth, promoting flexibility and encouraging the horse to soften at the poll and relax its jaw. This bit is versatile enough for everyday flatwork, schooling rides and general riding disciplines where clear, responsive communication is desired without harsh leverage.
Target Species: Horses
Application: Used under a bridle during riding for flatwork, schooling, hacking, and general riding to support subtle, balanced rein communication.
Method:
Fit the bit in the horse’s mouth so the jointed apple mouthpiece lies comfortably across the tongue and bars with minimal wrinkles at the mouth corners.
Adjust the bridle’s cheekpiece so the bit sits evenly and is not pulled too tight.
Use soft, consistent rein aids in combination with leg and seat to encourage responsiveness and relaxation.
After use, rinse the bit, wipe dry to remove saliva and dirt, and store in a dry tack area.
Frequency:
Suitable for daily training and every ride where a basic snaffle is appropriate.
Inspect regularly for wear or rough edges and replace if necessary.
