Schneiders® Bit Sweet Iron Snaffle 5" Full Cheek

A sweet iron mouth helps the horse to salivate, keeping the mouth moist. Full cheek bits help to lighten the horse up on the bit and be more responsive. Snaffle mouth on full cheeks combine to be a good "starter leverage" bit. To get the best results from your full cheek bit, use "Bit Loops" (#01023 or #15114) to attach the bit the bridle securely, keeping it in the most effective position.
