bit advice needed!!!!

[show_jumper]

hi everyone.

i was wondering if you could help me.
i have a horse who is very 'off the bridle' - what bit can i get that actually encourages him to take a hold of the bit (its not because he's over bitted - he even does it in a rubber snaffle)

thanks!

Nathe straight mouth. Lovely bits, really encourage them to go forward, but can cause them to go slightly dry in the mouth. Have you had teeth/back etc checked? What noseband do you ride in?

Ditto that - the nathe mouthpeice is a lovely material and often helps where rubber & other synthetics have failed.

yes definatly try a nathe straight mouth piece.Have you tried an hackamore yet?Some horse just don't like bits so the hackamore mite suit him to jump with.
