Description
The S cheek delivers a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage—clean pickup, clear release, and a steady feel in the hand. This design offers a clear, balanced communication while maintaining a responsive mouth feel.
The single-joint twisted wire snaffle adds definition on the bars compared to a smooth mouth, helping to lighten horses that tend to lean. It keeps lateral cues straightforward and clear, making it useful when you need more boundary and respect than a plain snaffle provides without moving to a correctional port. Best in experienced hands, it’s a solid choice for tuning and training broke horses.
Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.
