Re: [IceHorses] Bit Sizer/Bit shopping

Hi Judi,
     I'm a bit confused.   You said your stallions likes the snaffle you are 
using now,  but he doesn't like the dropped noseband.   Okay, forgive my 
simplicity, but why not just discard the dropped noseband if that is what 
the problem is?   I use snaffle bits and I don't use a noseband at all.   I 
like to use full-cheek snaffle bits and so DO use the bit keepers with 
those, but on plain "O" ring snaffles, I'll add a chin strap if I'm worried 
about the bit sliding around too much.   Is that your concern in wanting a 
noseband -- bit stability?
