A lifter bit is a balanced shank bit that applies even pressure with equal purchase and shank ratios to prevent harsh leverage. Designed to improved shoulder engagement, and smoother, more controlled turns. Ideal for barrel racing and general training, lifter bits help keep a horse squared up and athletic through maneuvers. They provide clear, refined communication without added harshness. CRICKET ROLLER: Great for a nervous type horse with the cricket provides a pacifier and also allows the rider to hear when they are rolling it thanks to the cricket like chirp it creates when rolled. GERMAN SILVER BEADS: provide a pacifier for nervous horses and increases salivation which naturally relaxes the jaw promoting more effective response to the bit. The beads also roll on the bars of the mouth preventing over reaction to bar pressure. SQUARE MOUTH: The square mouth provides a little more "Bite" than a smooth mouth. CHAIN BITS: For a more sensitive horse or a horse that is resistant to bar pressure PORTED MOUTH: provides faster response and natural break at the poll. Great for a pushy or strong horse. Cheek: 6" Mouth 5' COMES WITH CURB CHAIN Our bits are made from high quality marine grade 316 stainless steel, copper and German Silver
