A write up from Fran Turner from Diamonds in the Rough Dressage and bitting her ponies through
As training progresses, and ponies develop they often need to change or alternate bits……hence I one again found myself relying on Kirstie’s huge knowledge of the Bombers range to help me!
Sprout has a tiny mouth with a narrow jaw and a short smile ,so it’s a real struggle to find a bit with minimal tongue AND bar pressure, but slim enough not to crowd his mouth.
Kirstie has worked with me, hiring out numerous snaffles until we hit on the Bomber Blue Eggbutt with bradoon rings. This bit has a non metal mouth and offers the space and stability Sprout prefers. This encourages him to relax and take the contact forward. I couldn’t have done this without Kirstie, I just want to say a huge thank you from myself and Sprout.
