Experience the benefits of Fager's Sweet gold bits:
Introducing Fager's latest innovation: the Sweet Gold™ Bit. Crafted to address common challenges faced by riders with horses unsteady in the contact, prone to dropping the bit, or lacking in their instinct to seek out contact, this bit offers a solution for enhanced connection and performance.
*Valued by many horses, particularly those struggling to maintain a consistent connection. *Tends to resist the reins *Needs increased freedom for the tongue to establish and maintain a stronger connection.
Function: The Sweet Gold™ Bit functions by providing a comfortable and enticing experience for the horse, encouraging them to maintain consistent contact with the rider's hand. The sweet taste of the bit helps the horse relax and accept the contact, while the design and angle of the shape ensure maximum comfort. By promoting a steady and forward connection, this bit empowers riders to achieve a more consistent and responsive ride. The chain is a key feature which acts to distribute the pressure between the mouth poll and chin.
The sweet gold material contains copper which makes the material a bit softer. If you have a horse that tends to chew a lot on the bit, this may cause bite marks on the surface.
