The Shires Full Cheek Snaffle with Copper Peanut Bit is a practical and effective choice for everyday schooling and flatwork. Designed to promote steady contact and lateral guidance, the full cheek design helps improve turning aids—making it especially useful for young horses or those needing clearer directional cues.
The copper peanut link in the center encourages salivation and a softer mouth by introducing a warm, inviting metal. This multi-jointed mouthpiece reduces the nutcracker effect found in single-jointed snaffles, offering a more comfortable and responsive feel for the horse.
With a 13mm mouthpiece and 165mm full cheek arms, this bit offers a balanced, stable fit that promotes clear communication between horse and rider.
