-
currently one of the most po****r
overall designs, but
several years ago the
eggbutt and dee-ring were
quite common.
There are also
differences in the po****rity...
- A
snaffle bit with a
jointed mouthpiece and "
eggbutt"
style bit rings...
-
Loose rings (left and right),
eggbutt (center)...
- simple, with
riders usually using a
classic snaffle bit,
either a dee-ring,
eggbutt, or full ch**** design.
Milder bits are
preferred in
hunter classes. Pelham...
- horse's mouth, and thus bits that do not use bit
keepers (e.g., a D-ring or
eggbutt) do not have this
milder option. This bit can put
pressure on the tongue...
- gag,
which has a loose-ring design, and
Cheltenham gags
which have an
eggbutt design. A "gag snaffle" is not a
snaffle bit,
although it can be adjusted...
- single-jointed, and the bit ring is
usually a loose-ring, less
often an
eggbutt, or baucher. The
rings are
smaller in
diameter (maximum 8 centimeters)...
