The Hexagon Copper Roller Loose Ring Bit, is designed for riders seeking a deeper understanding and better communication with their horse. This bit is distinguished by its innovative hexagon mouthpiece, which provides a unique sensory experience for the horse.
The hexagonal shape of the mouthpiece creates multiple contact points in the horse’s mouth, offering varied pressure distribution and a distinctive feel. This design can be particularly effective for horses that have become desensitized to traditional bits, as it encourages them to pay more attention to the rider’s cues.
A standout feature of this bit is the copper cricket roller located in the center. The copper material naturally encourages salivation, which helps keep the horse’s mouth soft and responsive. The cricket roller adds an auditory element to the bit’s function; as the horse plays with the roller, it produces a subtle sound, often referred to as a ‘cricket’ noise. This sound serves as an excellent feedback mechanism for riders, allowing them to gauge their horse’s mouth activity and level of relaxation.
This auditory feedback can be incredibly valuable during training and riding, as it helps riders develop a better understanding of their horse’s mouth movements and responses. When the cricket noise is heard, riders can adjust their rein pressure and communication accordingly, fostering a more intuitive and harmonious connection between horse and rider.
