Function: Utilizing various pressure points, Combination Bits offer simultaneous interaction of the mouthpiece, curb strap and noseband. When rein pressure is applied or released, the combination bit automatically disperses or releases direct action and leverage pressure to the horse's mouth, chin, nose and poll.
Pressure is spread between the four areas instead of concentrated mostly on the mouth as with traditional bits, allowing the rider to send a softer and kinder message. Light pressure is applied to the mouth as the mouthpiece slides on the ring.
After contacting the "ring stop", the mouthpiece will engage completely and apply more downward pressure. Also, the backward and downward pressure of the noseband and the forward pressure of the curb strap are extremely effective at asking a horse to relax at the poll.
For custom fit, the noseband can be softened in water and contoured to an individual horse's nose.
Level: Two-Three
Usage/Solution for: because all pressure areas engage and release at the same time, the horse is offered a pressure-free reward whenever light and relaxed at the poll. This makes the Combination Bit an excellent training tool, for horses ranging from youngsters to well-schooled campaigners. Used in both English and Western disciplines.The Combination Bit is applicable across a wide range of horses. It works well for young or green horses but can also be used on older horses being retrained to a new sport or for horses competing in events that require speed, agility and maneuverability such as:
- barrel racing
