Bomber Bits Loose Ring Happy Tongue
The loose ring allows for immediate release and relief from tongue and bar pressure. The bit is immediately reset to a neutral position in the horse's mouth.
The Happy Tongue is a solid mouth piece. It is curved and ported to give tongue relief. The Happy Tongue would be a good place to start is your horse is:
Shaking it's head
Sticking it's tongue out
Sucking it's tongue back and as a result making an intermittent coughing noise
Trying to put it's tongue over the bit
Going behind the bit to avoid the contact
Snatching the reins forward and down
The rider will know immediately if this is the correct bit, as a horse with a sensitive tongue will finally begin to work into, and accept the contact
