The Brass Waterford D-Ring Bit is designed to provide a balanced connection and flexibility for horses needing refined direction. The brass composition encourages salivation, promoting a softer mouth and improved acceptance of the bit. The multi-link Waterford mouthpiece adapts to the horse’s mouth, distributing pressure evenly to prevent leaning. The fixed D-rings offer stability, providing clear and steady guidance.
Key Features of the Brass Waterford Mouthpiece:
- Flexible Pressure Distribution: The multiple rounded links of the Waterford mouthpiece conform to the horse’s mouth. This ergonomic contouring exerts even pressure therefore reducing the risk of discomfort.
- Prevents Leaning: The flexible design of the links discourages horses from leaning or bracing against the bit. This encourages proper contact, promoting better balance and control.
- Encourages Salivation: The brass material naturally stimulates salivation which softens the horse’s mouth for improved acceptance of the bit.
D-Ring Design Features:
- Lateral Stability: The fixed D-shaped rings provide lateral stability, preventing the bit from sliding through the horse’s mouth and offering more precise control during turns.
- Direct Communication: The D-Ring allows for a more stable and direct connection between the rider's hands and the horse’s mouth, making it suitable for horses that need clearer guidance and more consistent contact.
- Gentle Guidance: While providing stability, the D-Ring design ensures smooth and gentle communication between horse and rider, encouraging responsiveness without discomfort.
