AFFILIATED SHOW JUMPING BITS?!

[nationalsteed]

HEY THERE!

THOUGHT YOU GUYS COULD HELP ME WITH WHAT BITS ARE ALLOWED/PERMITTED IN AFFILIATED SHOW JUMPING IN THE UK?

I'VE LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR THE BSJA RULE BOOK AND CANNOT FIND IT ANYWHERE!

PLEASE HELP!

MUCH APPRECIATED!

I may be wrong but I thought it was pretty much anything goes for bits in BS. I can't remember reading anything in the handbook when I joined, although I have to say I was a bit shocked to see someone jumping a pony in a market harborough at a BRC novice area qualifier the other day.

Ok thanks Abi!

I've got the majority of rules, just wasnt too sure about bits.

I found that ponies arent to be ridden in market harboroughs.. surprised they weren't pulled up for that..

But yes, thanks for your reply

No bit rules, anything goes.
