Over the years, the Reinsman Junior Cowhorse bit line has proved to be riders favorite, time and time again. These bits are known for their slight slide/gag action and short 5 shank. The purpose of this combination is to give the horse more response time and mild leverage across the horses bars. This has made the Junior Cowhorse line a stand-up option as transition bits for colts, leisure riding bits, and performance bits for the softer, more supple performance horse.
Ideal for:
Transitioning a horse from a snaffle to a leverage bit.
The performance horse that is soft, supple, and doesnt require much leverage.
Leisure riding.
Why you will love it:
The three-piece mouthpiece aids in the prevention of the nutcracker effect across the horses bars.
The twisted mouth provides a slight bite for added control.
Sweet Iron will rust and promote salivation to make a more supple-feeling mouth.
Mullen relief mouth provides a slight curve over the horses tongue.
This makes the bit more comfortable to carry and is considered gentler across the bars.

Helpful Tips:
Applies pressure across the bars of the mouth when pressure is applied to the reins.
Start loose and increase tightness for additional control or increased signaling.
This 348 Junior Cowhorse Twisted Dogbone falls into our Stage B category of bits. Stage B is all about transitioning with the introduction of leverage and curb pressure. Short shank bits are common in Stage B.
More details:
All leverage bits should be used with a curb chain to function properly. Without a curb chain, a shanked bit can rotate back toward the rider. Curb chains should stop the shanks rotation at approximately 45 degrees.
Cheeks are made of medical-grade stainless steel to prevent rusting and guarantee longevity.
Each bit is closely inspected by a team of expert craftsmen who pride themselves on the quality of their workmanship.
Care instructions:
Store indoors or in a tack room
Wipe or brush off debris after each use.
Check your bit before each use for wear.
