CS BNWT Sweet Iron Tom Thumb Dr Bristol / Dog Bone 5.5" 14cm

This auction is for a Brand New Sweet Iron Tom Thumb Bit

This bit is 5.5" 

This is an unusual bit that is hard to find in the UK. It is a version of a Tom Thumb curb bit with a short shank and 'dog bone', which although called a Dr Bristol is not a true english Dr Bristol joint as it does not dig into the tongue, having no flat edge.

This bit can be very useful for excitable horses and can help keep a lower head position. The double joint helps prevent the horse from leaning on your hands.

This bit can be used with one or two reins or roundings.
