It features a simple design with a smooth, two-piece mouth that sits comfortably in the horse's mouth. The seven-shank design provides additional leverage for the rider, allowing for more precise communication with the horse. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eThis bit is commonly used in western riding disciplines such as reining and cutting, where the rider needs to have a high level of control over the horse's movements. The smooth snaffle bit is a mild option that is recommended for horses that are sensitive to harsher bits, and is an excellent transition bit out of a o-ring or d-ring. It is important to choose the right bit for your horse's individual needs and to use it correctly to ensure a safe and comfortable ride.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eSeven shank provides extra leverage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eSmooth independent side-to-side movement\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eQuite a bit of weight behind the mouthpiece, allowing a quick release from the rider's hands\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eSmooth snaffle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eTwo-piece snaffle allows for collection, flexion, and bend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eMouth: 5 in \/ stainless-steel \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003eCheeks: 6 1\/2 in \/ stainless-steel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eExperience the craftsmanship of a handcrafted Showman ® bit - each component is expertly welded, formed and ground by hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cscript\u003evar TabbedPanels1=new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels(\"TabbedPanels1\");\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Showman Saddles and Tack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42165203828796,"sku":"SST-jk65","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/4086\/files\/JK65.jpg?v=1725976537","url":"https:\/\/texansaddles.com\/products\/sst-jk65","provider":"TexanSaddles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
