Horse Eden : Incorrect Rating on Breeding History

That's a hard camp to be in, eury. So many people think obedience means their horse likes their bit. I promise you, your horse does not like your double twisted wire gag bit

agree to disagree. No horse should have that bit in their mouth. but go ahead and torture the poor creature if you wish

Ehh still doesn't justify it for me

I don't necessarily agree with it, as I'm in the "if your horse can't go in a snaffle then you're not training it very well" camp, but I do respect the culture behind it

It's a spanish tradition, Eliot. Only the most well-trained horses are allowed to 'graduate' to them. One of the tests they do is tying horse hair to the bit instead of reins, and if you can ride the horse without breaking the hair (aka not needing a lot of pressure on the reins) then the horse is sensitive enough to go in a spade.

I know I'm in the world myself, I still would never use one. But it's not my horse so my opinion doesn't matter.

My statement about the stepdad still stands. actually educate yourself before you go and torture's a horse with a bit like that

I know what the bit is, but still I personally don't believe in having one. My reiner is fully finished super light mouthed and only ridden with legs and she goes in a small correction while showing.

a finished bridle horse shouldn't need a bit like that. as someone that has 26+ years of horse experience

they use bits like that so if they need to pull they don't have to pull hard just a little bump as if you pull hard in the show pen you will be fined with "abuse"

That's a spade bit and it's designed to literally never be touched. It's for finished bridle horses.

I prefer no bit at all when I ride. But some horses need it because they lack the training or are just highly temperamental and need constant correcting.

your examples are about the same, but I guess I can understand
