Loose rings provide direct contact with immediate release, where the pressure on the tongue and bars ceases as soon as the rider releases the rein and the bit returns to a neutral position in the horse's mouth.

Happy Tongue is a stable mouthpiece. It is curved with a port that provides tongue relief. Happy Tongue is a good bit to try if your horse:

• shakes its head
• sticks out its tongue
• pulls the tongue back so a coughing sound is created
• puts the tongue over the bit
• goes behind the hand to avoid contact with the bit
• pulls the reins out of the rider's hands, forward-downward

The rider will immediately notice if this is a suitable bit, as a horse with a sensitive tongue will finally begin to make contact and accept the bit. You can then choose the side (rings/cheeks) to adjust the sharpness of the bit.

Bombers bits are made in South Africa and are completely handmade, which gives a unique opportunity to choose exactly how every little detail of the bit should be designed. You can choose the type of mouthpiece you want, the type of rings/cheeks, the thickness of the bit, and even if you want different lengths on the right and left side of the mouthpiece. The mouthpieces are made of sweet iron and brass and are shaped to distribute pressure over a larger area, rings/cheeks are made of stainless steel.
