I have recently come cross an ad in a magazine for the tinning tongue Plate bits and I was wondering if anyone has used one or ever heard of them?! My mare has an issue with displacement of the soft palate, and I have always wondered if there was something other than surgery that could fix it??? If anyone has used any of these buts pleased let me know! Thanks!

 I bought one for my horse. He doesn't like many bits, but this one keeps him collected, he respects it but I can't run him in it, he gets anxious.

I have a horse that displaces and I use a WTP bit on her. I have more than one type and it took some consistent riding for the bit to really make a difference and her to adjust. It was worth the investment in my opinion.

I have the WTP Western Universal NP (no plate).  I really like it for my one horse.  The more I ride him in the better he is.  I thinks it takes them some time to get used to it cuz the mouth piece is quite thick.  But he seems very comfortable and responsive in it.  This particular horse I think would displace when he was stressed some times, and would even make noise/roaring.  The bit I have doesn't have the tounge plate, but I think just the thickness of the mouth piece on the NP is enough to help him keep his tounge down.
