The Schneiders FES Jointed Training Horse Snaffle is a gentle bit that provides an ideal start for both young horses and riders. The long shank design enhances leverage, quickening response from the hand. This snaffle features stainless steel shanks and a sweet iron mouthpiece with a copper inlay. The copper inlay promotes salivation, while the sweet iron taste intensifies as it oxidizes, providing a unique and appealing flavor for the horse. The loose cheek pieces of this snaffle ensure that the corners of the horse's mouth will not be pinched, prioritizing horse comfort while training. With a 5" mouthpiece, 7 1/4" cheeks, and a 3/8" bit diameter, this horse snaffle, represents the Schneiders FES brand's commitment to quality and effective equestrian training tools.
