4 Ring 5 3/4" Mullen Mouth Happy Mouth

4 RING GAG with two sets of reins gives a rider the ability to send both horizontal and vertical signal. The first rein is attached to the largest middle ring which works to give a horse direct pressure to turn. The second rein is connected to the lower ring, and gives gag action. When the second rein is pulled the lower cheek tilts at the fulcrum point of top ring to which cheekpiece is attached, and slides in the mouthpiece. It gives pressure on both the poll and the corner of mouth simultaneously. It exercises strong control by leverage and works to elevate a horse. Useful bit for a strong horse who tends to lean on bit or in need of retraining. Severity is greater than three ring, if the lowest ring is used. This shaped mouthpiece is very mild and ideal for mouthing young horses. A twisted wire core passes through the centre of the elastic polymer which bows in the direction of pressure. This flexibility sends preliminary signal for the horse to prepare the movement of rein. She can be in relaxed and neutral state. This light weight mouthpiece acts equally on the bars, the tongue, the lips and corner of mouth. This mouthpiece is constricted in the middle with a twisted wire core passing through the centre. The thick 24mm mouthpiece creates space in the middle to keep tongue free. Flexible as Mullen, but more direct pressure on the bars than the tongue. This light weight mouthpiece is suitable for thick tongued horses.
