Professional's Choice Equisential Performance Long Shank Lifesaver Bit

Performance Long Shank Lifesaver Bit

Mouth: 5-1/4"
Cheek: 8"

This shank will give more leverage while maintaining a soft feel. A step up from the short shank allowing the rider to move forward to the next level of training. All of these bits should be adjusted to fit with one wrinkle in the horse’s mouth and a loose curb strap to allow 2-3 fingers. 

This mouthpiece is a nice transition from the snaffle mouthpiece. The mild copper wire twist keeps the horse’s mouth moist allowing the bit to move freely. It works off of tongue and bar pressure to achieve more break at the poll, lateral movement, and more collection.
