The best-selling Bombers Happy Tongue loose ring snaffle is now available in Titanium, which makes it a lighter weight bit.
The Happy Tongue is a solid mouthpiece uniquely ported to give maximum tongue relief. This relieves tongue pressure and allows the horse to relax.
This mouthpiece is often suitable for horses with sensitive or large tongues. Signs of sensitivity include the horse shaking his head when bit pressure is applied, putting the tongue out of the side of the mouth or putting the tongue over the bit.
It is curved to be softer on the bars and slow in applying tongue pressure.
The titanium mouthpiece adds a number of positives to the proven Bombers horse bitting philosophy. It is anti-bacterial and bio-compatible, whilst boasting superior durability and remaining extremely lightweight in the horse's mouth.
It increases salivation, is warm to the touch and encourages acceptance of the bit. Low maintenance and easy to clean, it is also hypoallergenic for the benefit of sensitive horses.
The loose rings keep the bit mobile in the horse's mouth, encouraging gentle mouthing and discouraging 'fixing' against the contact. They also allow for immediate relief from tongue and bar pressure when rein aids are relaxed, thus rewarding the horse quickly for a correct response.
