Professional Choice Equisential Performance Short Shank Bit Twisted Wire Snaffle

The Professional Choice Equisential Performance Short Shank Bit with Twisted Wire Snaffle is designed for horses with a soft mouth, offering precise communication and a subtle lift in the shoulders during training and schooling.

• Cheek length: 5 inches — a short shank gag cheek that promotes elevation in the shoulders for improved carriage.
• Mouthpiece length: 5 1/8 inches — balanced for a comfortable, responsive feel in the mouth.
• Twisted wire mouthpiece: Twisted wire adds targeted bar pressure to help sharpen focus on a finished horse.
• Design: Short shank with gag action to enhance lift while maintaining a soft feel on a gentle mouth.
• Fit guidelines: Adjust fit with one wrinkle in the horse's mouth and a loose curb strap to allow 2–3 fingers.
• Functionality: Behavior similar to a smooth snaffle, with twist for added responsiveness without harshness.

This bit enables nuanced communication for riders working with horses that respond best to gentle, precise cues. The gag cheek supports better shoulder elevation, aiding in smoother transitions and improved head-and-neck carriage. The twisted mouthpiece delivers focused pressure that can refine responsiveness in a finished horse, while the overall design emphasizes comfort when properly fitted. Following the fit guidance helps maintain safety and effectiveness during daily training and competition prep.
