Title:
Default TitleAbout the Bit
The Merrill Long Gag with Chain Dogbone Mouthpiece is crafted for riders who need maximum leverage and clear, responsive communication while maintaining softness. The long gag cheek provides powerful lift and authority, keeping the horse elevated, balanced, and attentive through turns and fast-paced runs.
The chain dogbone mouthpiece naturally flexes across the tongue and bars, offering a softer, more forgiving feel while still delivering precise cues. Combined with the dogbone center, this bit evenly distributes pressure to prevent discomfort, making it ideal for sensitive horses that need guidance and control without harshness.
