ive had a few, but none of them have really witnessed the problem because he does it when we're having normally and with my instructors ive mostly been jumping

he definitely not scared of taking the bit forward, its only an issue i face when he gets excited, normally hacking on a field. ive had a number of instructors who've taught me for showjumping and for this it suits him but i was just looking for something abit different to hack and school in.

hi everyone i have an excitable 14.2, he has a trick of tucking his nose into his chest then taking off with me and the bit i have now isn't really helping. he is in a gag which i feel isn't helping me to be able to get his head back at all, any ideas?

I guess I just need to give a few things a go and see what works, thankyou!

Sorry everyone I think it was unclear what I was trying to ask, I have a little 14.2hh, he's a bit of a nutter but I've had him for 3 years and I'm still facing the same problem, he has a little trick of tucking his head into his chest and taking off, he can be very head strong especially in...

anyone know any effective bits for strong ponies with soft mouths

Thankyou.

Hi everyone, I have a little 14.2hh pony, unsure on his breed but he is 13 and i need some advice on a new bit for him. I've had him for 3 years now and still facing the same issue. He has quite a soft mouth and therefore has to be in a happy mouth however he has a problem of tucking his nose...
