CS BNWT Sweet Iron Tom Thumb Dr Bristol / Dog Bone 4.5" 11.5cm

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

This bit is 4.5" (11.5cm)

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.
