If you would describe your horse as something with the following;
Heavy in your hands.
Tries to avoid the bit, fussy in the contact
Strong, usually lean/pull on the bit
The effect of a Kimblehook is more direct than curbs with longer shanks. The lower the rein is placed on the sides, the sharper this bit will be.
The joints will never interfere or push against the palate. A very comfortable bit that shapes naturally around the tongue and reveals the bars from constant pressure. This design is ideal for sensitive horses that easily get wounds.
