Tips for training horses - Bitting Info

The horse is curbed with a "correction bit". Byte used for tunning. Which bits to use and when to use them. My dear friend and rider, welcome to another horse training tips insider. I would like to try to clear up some of the misunderstandings about bits and how to use different kinds of bridle bits and kerb bits to their best use.

Let's begin with bridle pieces. The majority of stallions should be launched in a snaffle. And many older stallions that have to be retrained should also be trained in a snaffle. In my opinion, a horse should be rode in the gentlest way to which it will answer for the work it is supposed to do.

With increasing age, most ponies loose some of their sensibility. Two-year-old colts have a much more delicate jaws than ten-year-old foals. As the horse's jaws are exposed to more stress or abrasivity, they will harden and become less susceptible.

That'?s why I would like to apply as mildly as possible on the horse. I' d like to keep the horse's muzzle as sensitive as possible. When a horse totally rejects to react to a very soft-bit I will go to the next one in the series.

Well, do not mistake a word that is only "sensitive" with a word that is "educated". The horse's jaws can be very delicate, but if they are not also informed about how to react to stress, the sensibility really doesn't help much. You should want both..... an formed lips that reacts to collotype and is sore.

Usually a foal with an O-ring and a 7/16 " mouth piece is used. Do you want them to go to a snaffle teeth with more "bite" or to a kerbstones? In general, the horse should remain in some kind of O-ring snaffle teeth until he feels comfortable in his workouts.

In the ideal case, the horse should be trained to do anything you want while being bridled. So if you want your horse to be a reinin horse, you should educate him to stop, spider, switch leaders, etc. in the snaffle teeth. As soon as he knows how to work, you can take him to a kerb.

Curve bits are for "refining" the workout you have done with the snaffle. The same applies to a cut horse. It should be in a snaffle while learning to stop, turn and evaluate the cows. The snaffle bite is, I think, the best way to teach a horse how to get in the right positions and how to use his own posture.

Every competitive horse must teach to give his mind to the immediate reins, to distract his shoulder from the central reins and to place his chest and hind legs in front of the legs' pressures. This is the order of the different kinds of snaffle bits I use: I' m trying to do most of the basic workout with an O-ring snaffle with a 7/16" mouth piece.

I' ll stick with it until the horse is too light and I can't get it to react as easily as it should. In order to get the horse to relax and react, I will try to train it with a snaffle that has a smaller diametre mouth piece.... usually a 3/8" one.

That' all I need for some really delicate cats. However, for most of our equestrians it will not be enough. One of my favourites is a thin, slippery 3/16 " head. It is what I call a "thin, slippery snaffle". Cause it achieves the results I want, but it's not hard or abrasives on the horse's jaw.

I use this bit to brighten a filly for a few day and then I change back to the normal snaffle. But after a while this is the part I will use to do most of the work. I' ll stick with the snaffle as long as I can.

Most of what the horse needs to know is learnt in this set of teeth. But at some point during the workout a horse needs to be brightened even more. Above all the older dressage and tuning ponies. So, to get the work done, I go to a skewed snaffle.

They have a certain "bite" and will also persuade an older, tough horse to react and brighten up. Although it works well, you should be conscious that a "twisted" tip is abrasion and can hurt a horse's jaws if used too many consecutive and overused.

It is recommended to ride the horse for a day or two to cheer him up and then return to the plain bridle. By the way: One of the frequently asked question is why I do not use a "running martingale" with my snaffle teeth to place the horse's face.

When adjusted briefly enough to urge the horse to bend to the adjustment for perpendicular inflection, it is too brief and disturbs the side one. It was 15 years ago, and I haven't driven one since. When you want to try a device that helps a horse, you' ll need to keep your hand flexible and smooth.... use a English MartingaI.

This is the best horse exercising help there is. Brightening a horse with a thicker set of teeth and then changing back to a softer set of teeth for each and every working night really works well to protect the horse's jaws and make it work properly at the same time. Well, some dressage shoes just don't get as bright as they should.

You have to go to the "next level" of the bitterness curve earlier with these ponies than with an ordinary horse. As the horse has a good understanding of what is required of it and is quite far away, I begin to ride the horse in a "transition piece".

Change over bits are medium bits with which the horse passes from the snaffle to a normal kerbbite. Adapters are the step stone between the horse and the final horse. If I have the feeling that the horse is prepared to exit the O-ring snaffle, I will ascend to a gentle transitional piece.

Next bit in the series is my favourite transfer-bit. It is a detached shaft (Bob Loomis shaft) with a so-called "Billy Allen" nozzle. Billy Allen was a top coach who created this mouth-piece many years ago. It has proven to be one of the best bits of all time).

The thing I like about this piece is that it gives the horse the "feeling" of being rode with a kerbstone without frightening the horse. This is because the Billy Allen nozzle is moving and is like a snaffle. It differs in that the Billy Allen nozzle has a "roll" formed over the centerpiece.

The role "limits" the motion of the mouth piece. A horse gets the feeling of a mouth piece that is almost "firm" like a normal kerbbite, but still has some "flex". It gives you a great deal of freedom without frightening or disturbing the horse. The majority of ponies like this set of teeth and you can keep a horse in it for most of your time.

I use the 8" shafts for most of my work. That' also the main element I use to train a horse to reins. Slack thighs and the flexible mouth piece allow me to place the horse's forehead with a straight reins before applying the collar reins. You can see how I do this in my movie "Teach Your Horse to Naughty Rein".

There''s a great deal to learn at Billy Allen. Some of the dressage stallions work so well that you can keep them there for years. However most of the ponies have to be brought into a fixed, steady jaw. Next I will use a low-port mouth piece with 8" detached cheek for these cats.

I' m using the low end as the first sound horse's nose piece, because it is relatively soft. Bite pressures are more evenly spread over the horse's jaws and toes. Caution: Even if I push the horse forward while biting, I would still like the kerb teeth to have "loose" legs.

Relaxed legs make it easy to take the horse's forehead to one side and bend sideways. Once the horse has advanced in education, "solid" shafts with good results can be used. I' m gonna go horseback riding for a while and see how he reacts.

Now it' s all about experimentation with different bits to see what the horse reacts to best. You know, some ponies can be in the low harbor for years. Most of the ponies will react well. Remember that when I encounter a bite I sometimes return to an O-ring snaffle during the entire workout and biting cycle to straighten out the problems and restore the horse's trust.

Usually a few horse riding in the snaffle fix the horse and I can go back to the kerbs. Also note that some of them cannot bear the wealth. Horseback these ponies with a bite and they'll take your best use. I' ve got one of those ponies in school.

Whenever I return to a gentler part to give the horse a good return, he will cheat on me and will not work properly. So, I'm compelled to rid him harder most of the while. Well, this particular horse that behaves like that is disappointing, but I don't blame it on the horse.

It is part of the horse's character to take the simple way out and let up. The truth is that most of our ponies will fade from season to season, not reach their full capacity. They either deny themselves any kind of illumination or they will get a little bit of illumination and then become heavier again.

You want to go riding with your own TOUNING IT one or two days before the show or maybe even during the show. Tune bits are every bits that the horse respects and REALLY listens to. It is usually a thicker piece than the horse really needs in everyday life.

However, NOT so powerful that it frightens the horse. Yes, I want the horse to have a great deal of reverence for that part of the voice, but I don't want him to be so concerned that it concerns him. Keep in mind that a horse that is frightened or concerned cannot reach its full capacity.

I use two main "voice bits". One' for a horse that's still in the O-ring snaffle. I use the other with a horse that is in a temporary dentition or a normal kerbbite. I use a kerb bite with a "correction" mouth piece and very small, bent, "Argentinean" shafts (loose shafts) for the horse, which is normally rode in an O-ring snaffle.

It will really appeal to the horse.... especially for the stop. It is easy to use on a bridle bite because the legs are so small and bent that there are almost no bridles. There is no lever effect which allows you to take the horse's helmet sideways without frightening him.

For my horses, which are usually rode in a kerb or transitional dentition, I use a vocal bite with a "correction" mouth piece and seven (7?) inches, lose legs. It has some levering effect, but it is still simple to get sideways bending because the legs are relaxed.

But I should also say that on some of the heavyweights I will use a kerb necklace that has more teeth than the ones I use. Usually a kerb works well. Usually I mount the horse with a one or two rides tuned up ( "or show it inside") and then go back to the part where I normally mount it.
