Bit trials, clinics..?

[tobiano1984]

I'm trying to find a suitable bit for my horse, and have been looking at trialling bits from online shops. However I would rather have an expert come out and try the bits with them, does such a thing exist? I'm in Kent (Canterbury). It just seems like it could get very expensive trying tons of bits, even trialling them, and I would rather have some help from someone who really knows what they're talking about!

If anyone has any tips whether it's trialling facilities or experts to come out - please let me know!

If there is nothing like this, you could be onto something. ITs a good idea, as someone could come out with a selection of bits, see your horse go round in their normal bit and then suggest alternatives. Bit like a saddler!!

I would definitely be interested, as although Toby goes better in the bit a friend has lent me, I can't help but think there is an even better one out there!!
