This is a premier transition bit. The combination of the 5" snaffle mouthpiece and 6-3/4" cheeks provides the moderate leverage needed for refined communication as your horse moves toward advanced Western training and neck reining.Q: Why is the copper plating important for my horse’s performance?A: Copper is a "sweet" metal that encourages the horse to salivate and "mouth" the bit. This prevents a dry, unresponsive mouth and encourages the horse to relax their jaw, leading to a softer, more willing response to your rein cues.Q: Will this bit fit my Quarter Horse or Paint?A: Absolutely. The 5-inch width is considered the industry standard for light horse breeds, providing a comfortable fit that prevents the bit from sliding excessively or pinching the sensitive corners of the mouth.Item Number/SKU: 25-5126
