You mean a butterfly flip bit - a butterfly bit is something different that clips on.

Anyway what you are after is a very glammed up kimblewick with an extra forward hook to give extra leverage and poll action

My advice - try a double jointed or happy mouth kimblewick first - about 23% of the cost of this bit and will soon tell you whether your neddy likes a kimblewick.

If you have one a pelham with rounding is not disimilar, but a kimblewick is quite unique and tolerated where a pelham is not. However if your horse hates a curb chain better to test out before spending £90......
