Location: NE Texas | That they want to let me "borrow"? I have a horse I think would like the mullen rubber mouthpiece, but dang I don't want to buy one to then turn around and sell it! |

Location: NE Texas | Yay! Very exciting! Give me a pat for him. Love how great minded he always looks in the pictures you post. I grew up with one like him and they are invaluable. No doubt he will pass that on to his babies. :) |

Location: NE Texas | You're not deranged....i'd prefer the short shank. I'd eventually like to try the gag too, but I think the short shank is the one i've had in the past and would work well for this particular horse. |

Location: NE Texas | Sure, he's a really hard running, hard turning 5 YO. He's light mouthed but prefers a mullen mouthpiece over anything broken, so I currently run him in a mullen mouth bit I had made years ago that i've gotten along with on other horses who prefer a mouthpiece that isn't broken. I find that as hard and quick as this horse is, that my hands get a little quick when/if I need to make a corretion. In the past horse I used it on, the rubber mouthpiece just took that jolt out of my my hands when they got a little quick, but still gave me the feel I want. I'm not heavy handed, and I hate any gag bit because I can't "feel" a horse's mouth, but my hands do occasionally get "quick" when a horse steps up and makes a run....probably from riding colts and young hroses for the last 7 years or so. It will just ease the communication between us.
