Anyone ever used these bits? I've seen them on fb and ppl go crazy over them. Are they really worth $100? I have a mare that drops really hard in turns. Hard to get a clean run. I've yet to find a bit that gives me enough lift. Would this work?

I bought one mostly out of curiosity. I went into it not really expecting to like it much, I am used to riding in mostly O rings and a lot of times feel like my hands just don't "work" with lots of other bits that well. I LOVE it. I was really worried about spending the money (I went all in and had Lauren bead a headstall for me too for it) and I've been thinking about getting another one.

However... I think there are lots of very similar bits with the same effect that are priced better. Being the bit hoarder that I am I just had to have one.

I tried one of my friends. I didn't think it was anything different than a glorified Loomis gag or a long shank simplicity bit. Not worth the $100 imo

 I absolutely love mine. They promote bend and flex. I tell people it's like a hyped up draw bit lol. 
As for the price...the workmanship is great, very smooth and should last forever. And great customer service to boot. I was very pleased as soon as I opened the box :)
I went with the small square port with twisted sides. It's a super low port. One day I'd like to get the smooth dogbone also. 

I love my draw bits, but theirs one just has a different "feel", even though it's a very similar action.

 I like mine a lot too. I had one horse that was scared of it but I think it was just how high the cheeks were because its not a very harsh bit at all. I have the smooth broken mouth piece.

I love mine! I have a mare that hates running in bits and likes to kind of flip her head and fight. I put the no hit on her and it was a completely different horse. I love it and recomend them!
