Frequently Asked Questions About Eventing Bridles & Bits

What bridle should I use for eventing?

When it comes to eventing, most riders use two different bridles - one for dressage and one for the jumping phases. The dressage bridle is typically a plain snaffle with a flash noseband, as the goal is to have a horse that is relaxed and responsive to subtle aids. Many riders opt for a more substantial bridle and bit combo for the jumping phases to offer more support. A figure 8 or drop noseband can provide extra stability and help keep the horse's attention focused on the Jump. Ultimately, choosing a bridle that you feel is right for you and your horse is important.

What bits are legal for eventing?

Eventing is a thrilling horseback riding competition that combines the disciplines of dressage, show jumping, and cross-country riding, but there are a few key rules that all riders must follow. For example, only loose-ring and eggbutt bits are allowed in lower-level dressage, and bit guards are not permitted at any level. In the show jumping and cross-country phases, however, riders have much more leeway regarding bits. Hackamores are not allowed in any phase of eventing.
