Im going to change from a loose ring french link to an eggbut french link snaffle.

Im posted about my mare swinging her head side to side in trot and have been told that its my hands that are causing the problem. I did think it was me;0)

Im hoping that an eggbut will help as well as my training myself to keep damn hands still.

She is currently in a 5.5inch bit with a good little finger width space at the corners of her mouth. Does an eggbut need to fit more snug and would I be better going for a 5inch eggbut?
 
Ah ok, I just guessed that as there didnt need to be space between the lips and the rings then an eggbutt didnt need the space either side??
