Aster Buffer Golden Copper-Nickel Alloy Dee Baucher Bit The Aster Buffer Golden Copper-Nickel Alloy Dee Baucher Bit is designed around the relationship between mouthpiece profile, oral space, and pressure distribution. Featuring a straight-bar mouthpiece with a unique forward-facing port, the Buffer creates additional tongue accommodation while encouraging a more stable, comfortable connection between horse and rider. Rather than relying on movement within the mouth, the Buffer is designed to provide a secure and consistent feel. Its profile allows the tongue to occupy more available space beneath the mouthpiece, helping to reduce unnecessary compression and encouraging the horse to remain relaxed and confident in the contact. Crafted from premium Golden Copper-Nickel Alloy, the mouthpiece offers exceptional strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. Its smooth, polished finish provides a refined feel in the horse's mouth while delivering long-lasting performance for training, schooling, and competition. The forward-facing port is carefully shaped to provide tongue relief while maintaining communication through the mouthpiece. By changing the relationship between the tongue and bars, the Buffer helps avoid excessive concentration of pressure in sensitive areas and can be particularly beneficial for horses that are uncomfortable in more conventional ported or straight-bar designs. The straight-bar construction offers stability and predictability, making it an excellent choice for horses that dislike excessive movement within the mouth but do not respond well to traditional ported mouthpieces. The stable design can encourage horses to confidently seek the contact rather than avoid the hand. The Dee Baucher cheekpiece provides additional stability by reducing unnecessary movement of the mouthpiece. The large Dee-shaped ring supports a consistent position in the mouth, while the hanging cheek design creates a quiet, balanced connection that many sensitive horses appreciate. This makes the Buffer particularly suitable for horses that prefer a more secure feel without a loose or mobile mouthpiece. Ideal for horses that drop behind the contact, intermittently come above or behind the contact, or resist conventional mouthpiece designs, the Aster Buffer encourages a steadier, more forward connection while respecting individual oral anatomy.
