Description
The Showman® Argentine Shank with Medium Port Copper Rollers delivers a mild, balanced feel with quick pickup and an easy reset, making it a dependable everyday choice and a natural step up from a snaffle. The Argentine cheek provides light leverage and a clear, direct signal for responsive yet forgiving communication.
The medium port with copper rollers offers tongue relief without palate pressure while keeping steady bar contact. At 2" tall, the port clears the tongue while the copper rollers encourage salivation and a quieter mouth. This design promotes softness and relaxation, making it an excellent option for shaping rate, bend, and collection while maintaining clear lateral control.
Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.
