Bombers Pony Classic Dee Square Twist Snaffle
The Dee Ring is very similar in action to the Eggbutt, it will prevent pinching of the lips and gives a slightly more solid feel against the side of the face. It also prevents the bit being pulled through the mouth. The release is slower and some slight poll pressure is introduced. The fixed cheek piece is designed to sit closely to the horse's lips and encourages flexion. A light pressure is applied to the bars and tongue by the mouthpiece and is generally accepted by the horse, achieving a better positioning of the head.
Bomber's snaffle is a popular bit due to the curved mouthpiece, which distributes pressure more evenly over the tongue and bars and reduces the nutcracker action. The offset center link avoids the usual pressure point on the tongue. The nutcracker action results in the horse lifting its head, thereby offering a solution for the horse that runs with its head down. The addition of the square twist will create more pressure points on the mouthpiece, making it stronger than the usual smooth snaffle. This mouthpiece is made from blue sweet iron, meaning it is warm and sweet, helps with bit acceptance, oxidizes easily, and encourages salivation. Please note, the blue color will fade with use, but the sweet taste will remain.
