Gustav Sweet Iron Baby Fulmer - Fager

Gustav is constructed with a 100% super smooth surface, even around the joints which are designed to never interfere with or push against the palate. It is a very comfortable bit that shapes naturally around the tongue and relieves the bars from constant pressure. Thanks to the smooth joints, this bit is a good option for horses who can overreact when you take the reins and have a hard time keeping a consistent contact with the bit.

Gustav is an ideal design for sensitive-mouthed horses who need to lay more on the bit and can overreact when you take the reins.

NOTE: Gustav can be used in two ways: Either with tongue relief or with bar relief.

For tongue relief - If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact.
• Pulls away or up when you take up the reins.
• Attempts to put their tongue over the bit.
• Fussy mouthed.

For bar relief - Turn the bit upside down. If you would describe your horse as the following:

• Inconsistent in the contact.
• Stiff or rigid to ride.
• Bites on the bit, attempts to pull it back.
• Doesn’t seek the contact towards the bit.
• Drops the contact.
• Falls behind the hand.

Baby Fulmer is a registered design by Fager. This sidepiece will give you a mix between the loose and fixed rings. The Fulmers will lay close to the horse’s side, helps with steering, and keep the mouthpiece steady. The loose rings are placed further away from the mouth corners, and this will put the pressure further down and inwards, encourage the horse to lift in the front, come back to your hand, and avoid a stiff feeling towards the bit.
