The Brass Waterford Full Cheek Bit combines the flexible Waterford mouthpiece with full cheek design, offering enhanced lateral stability and precise steering. The brass composition encourages salivation, promoting a softer mouth and better acceptance of the bit. This design is particularly effective for horses that tend to lean or become strong, as the Waterford mouthpiece discourages this action, while the full cheek provides clear directional 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.
Full Cheek Design Features:
- Enhanced Stability: The full cheek design prevents the bit from sliding through the horse’s mouth, providing more stable lateral guidance.
- Direct Contact: The extended cheekpieces offer more direct cues, helping horses maintain better balance and stay on track.
- Encourages Responsiveness: The full cheek bit design promotes consistent, gentle guidance, making it easier for the horse to stay engaged and responsive during rides.
