Simon Sweet iron Fullcheek gag

An anatomical straight bit designed with specific pressure distribution to ensure complete comfort for the horse.

Simon's design to provide the best shape for a horse that a straight bit can have, following the natural contours of the horse's mouth. This unique shape, in combination with the sweet taste, will give the rider a stable, consistent contact in the hand.

A bit with tongue relief suits horses with large, sensitive tongues who can open their mouths, pull the reins, and play with their tongues.

Material
Sweet iron is a covering on top of a bit made of stainless steel. The purpose is to disguise the metal taste from stainless steel and create a pleasant, sweet taste, encouraging the horse to seek more contact and hold on to the bit. Following use, sweet iron will start to oxidize and turn brownish grey, this is to be expected.

Sweet iron is a good choice for horses who need to seek more contact with the bit.

Fullcheek gag
Fullcheek sidepieces give a framed and stable feeling. It can help with steering and bending, keeping the horse's shoulders in place. It also protects the mouth corners from getting pinched or rubbed.

When using a gag rein through the rings, you will get a flexible, soft feeling in the hand. This can also be good for horses that get long and low, heavy and strong where you need a lighter feeling in the hand.

When using a gag rein through the rings, we recommend using a second rein connected to the snaffle ring as well.

Observe, gag reins are not included.
