Does this look ok? Drop noseband

[WishfulThinker]

I jsut wanted to check - as there arent many pics to refer to online - Is this fitted ok??
Its a Full, as a Cob size wont do up!

ive never seen drops with drop bits before

Nor have I, but I was assured by a few folk on here they they use that combination and its ok.

But I am still unsure of how high/low it should be, and also how tight it should be.

My drop noseband sits lower than yours. Fitted correctly there should be about 4 fingers width between the top of the nostrel and the bottom of the noseband.

Echo vicm2501 that was how I was told to fit it and yours does look a little high.
Must admit I have never seen them used with a hanging cheek.

Lol, I must have HUGE hands as that IS 4 fingers from his nostril!! Its on the bit with the bone in the middle and fleshy at the side.

I don't think the angle of my pic has helped. lol

nope, it's too high. 4 fingers' width above top of nostril is right, just checked with my hand and it's 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 inches, no more.

Ok, just measured my 4 fingers together and i get 3 1/8 inches. So its 3 1/8 inches above his nostril.

That isnt a side on pic as he wanted his haynet.
