Frequently Asked Questions About English Horse Bits

What is an English horse bit?

An English horse bit is used to control and communicate with a horse through the metal mouthpiece that goes in their mouth and is connected to the reins a rider holds.

Is an English bit right for my horse?

If you ride with an English bridle then an English bit is right for your horse. English bits are used for English disciplines such as show jumping, fox hunting, hunters, Dressage, trail riding, and Hunt Seat Undersaddle.

What are the types of English horse bits?

The two main types of English horse bits are snaffle bits and curb bits. English snaffle bits come with different styles of cheek pieces such as loose ring, eggbutt, D-ring, and full cheek option. Curb bits are commonly Pelham bits and Kimberwick bits.

How to choose the right type of English bit for my horse?

You should choose the English horse bit that suits your horse’s current training level and is designed to solve the problems you are looking to improve on. If your horse is young and just learning how to wear a bit, using something mild like a rubber snaffle bit or Happy Mouth bit can be a great option. If you want something for general riding or jumping a d-ring snaffle is a popular choice for hunter riders whereas full cheek snaffles may be better for show jumping or eventing. Loose ring snaffles are commonly used for Dressage riders whereas a Pelham bit or Kimberwick bit with curb chain action can be found on Fox Hunters for the added control when needed.
