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 with rate and lift while keeping signals readable and consistent without getting heavy.
The floating spoon engages to provide clear vertical cues, then releases as the horse softens, keeping the mouth quiet instead of braced. Copper rollers on the spoon encourage moisture and acceptance, helping horses stay soft while you shape collection, bend, and lateral response. Best in experienced hands, this bit delivers a moderate-to-firm feel ideal for broke horses.
Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.
