I really like this little bit I had Klu Bits make me. It's chain mouth and it resembles the short shank sue smith bits the way the shank is. I would like to get a real Elliot Sue Smith bit just like it.

I love my Kathy James, my mare gets strong and it really helps me rate her. I also have a #179 L & W lift bit with a setback curb that offers more woah.

I have a ed wright chain and like how it is. There's a middle ring so they chain flexes both ways instead od laying just one way across if that makes sense. I have a molly powell chain that rides good too.

Just saw the molly powell that was posted. My molly powell is different, it's the shorter shank one with maybe 1.5 gag and the rope trim on the side.

Love the Paul Petska bits.   Have a great feel and seems to help one break at the poll, or it did my OTQH that was a little heavy on the bit.  They can come in medium or long shank, and can have a port too.

I agree the original Petska bits are the best on the market.

I have this Dutton Bit in pretty much every mouth piece available, including a chain. I love it.

Paul has made 2 bits for me and the one I use now is a very short shank chain bit, very pretty and unique...if I remember, I'll get a picture...I also have one similar to this and it has great control and stop...
