Twisted Copper Fixed Gag with Dr. Bristol Link

The Twisted Copper Fixed Gag with Dr. Bristol Link Bit combines a twisted copper mouthpiece for increased responsiveness with a Dr. Bristol link for even pressure distribution. The gag design offers a gentle lift, making this bit ideal for horses needing improved head carriage and refined balance.

Key Features of the Twisted Copper Mouthpiece :

• Enhanced Responsiveness : The twist in the mouthpiece creates additional contact points on the tongue and bars, encouraging quicker reactions to rein aids.
• Promotes Salivation : Copper encourages natural salivation, keeping the horse’s mouth soft and responsive.
• Designed for Skilled Riders : The sharper action of the twist is best suited for riders with educated hands.

Key Features of the Dr. Bristol Link :

• Even Pressure Distribution : The flat, angled link spreads pressure evenly across the tongue and bars, preventing pinching and discomfort.
• Improved Communication : The angled design provides a more refined feeling, helping horses respond promptly to riders’ guidance.
• Promotes Acceptance : The Dr. Bristol link encourages horses to accept the bit and maintain consistent contact.

Fixed Gag Design Features :

• Encourages Responsiveness : Even with the added lift, the design encourages smooth communication between the rider and horse, helping the horse stay engaged without tension.
• Consistent Lift : The fixed gag cheekpieces provide consistent lift without any sliding action giving riders steady control.
• Added Lift : The gag action applies upward pressure, encouraging the horse to lift its head, making it ideal for horses that tend to be heavy on the forehand.
