[S  & Steel 5.5  ]

The Shires hanging cheek snaffle with a copper snaffle works due to the angle of the bit inside the horses hem. The bit encourages the horse to lower its head when properly fitted and equipped with a sturdy reins contact as the mouthpiece puts pressure on the tongue when it raises its head too high. The diamond of this hanging cheek snaffle or abdomen removes the nutcracker action within the mouth and makes it more comfortable for the horse and promotes true contact and higher responsiveness.
