Expert opinion : The Waldhausen copper snaffle bit is a simple bit with a simple contact. It allows a good relaxation of your horse's mouth by a smoother transmission of your aids. Unlike the double bit, which acts on the tongue, the single bit acts on the palate. It is important to know that the palate of the horse is a sensitive area that should not be neglected. It can be recommended for horses that are relatively easy on the mouth, not very sensitive on the palate or have a hollow palate. Loose rings offer a gentle contact to the mouth. They allow a slight indirect contact compared to fixed rings, which makes it easier to play in the fingers and limits excessive tension.
Copper : The copper alloy has a pleasant taste for the horse when it comes into contact with the mouth, stimulating chewing and salivation.
