Classic Equine Bit: A necessity in any horseman's toolbox, the D Ring Snaffle from Classic Equine has a nice weight, balance, and feel. Its slightly heavier design not only makes it durable, but it takes a deliberate action to cue the horse. When released, the bit returns quickly to a resting state, providing release of pressure and adding consistency to your hands. The Smooth snaffle is the softer of the two D ring styles. 5 inch wide and curved to shape the mouth. Inlaid copper promotes salivation and greater sensitivity to the bars. TBBITDR20
