Description
The Long S cheek delivers a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage—clean pickup, clear release, and a balanced feel in the hand. Its design helps shape rate, lift, and collection while keeping cues soft and readable without getting heavy.
The mouth features copper-wrapped bars for warmth and acceptance, along with a ported correction center with copper rollers. The port provides tongue relief and defined vertical lift, while the rollers maintain moisture and a quiet, responsive mouth. At 3 ¼" tall and 1" wide, it rides decisive in experienced hands and is ideal for tuned horses needing respect without dulling responsiveness.
Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.
