Why You Should Use a Snaffle Bit to Train Your Horse

Regardless of a horse’s training, when starting the Method, Clinton recommends using a snaffle bit when riding regardless of the horse’s prior training. Why? Because snaffle bits encourage lateral flexion and allow you to get your horse softer and more responsive to your cues as opposed to using a shank bit. Clinton and our clinicians train their horses in our sweet iron snaffle bits. The best features of the bits: ✅The D- and O-ring combination design ensures that the bit doesn’t harmfully pinch the corners of your horse’s mouth like many snaffles do ✅Made of sweet iron, the bit encourages your horse to salivate, which keeps his mouth soft and more responsive ✅The 3/8” mouthpiece teaches your horse to stay light and not lean against your hands ✅The design makes it easy to attach slobber straps and mecate reins 𝗟𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱-𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿: 𝗕𝘂𝘆 𝟭 𝗦𝗻𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝗶𝘁, 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝟭 𝟱𝟬% 𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟮𝟴𝘁𝗵.
