Where do the Drs Bristol and Christian get their ideas for bits do you think?

And what about that Dr Cook and his bridles?
What are they Drs of do you think?

 

[JustKickOn]

ooh lol. looks liek a weymoth, but they don't have the loose ring in the middle, i think

learn something new everyday

 

[piebaldsparkle]

'Dr' put there to make it sound like it was designed by a professional, thus can double the price tag, then double it again as it is equestrian!!!!!!! - Could have doulbled again if produced in PINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PapaFrita]

*Picks PF up by the legs and starts shaking her to get her awake again* (I have NO idea if this is how to wake someone from fainting.)

I've seen that bit but not sure what it's called.

Thats what I thought but then found a breaking bit and the keys where jointed to the bit not on a ring.
I guess you can get different types though?

Nope, the weymouth is a curb bit. I think you mean looks like a bradoon?!

[Irishcobs]

Slightly only the same as a normal snaffle.
