Medium Shank Correction Horse Bit - Responsive Training Control

This Hilason medium shank correction horse bit delivers balanced leverage and responsive control for western training, daily riding, and arena work.

Stainless steel construction resists rust and withstands repeated exposure to sweat, water, and barn environments without corrosion.
