Elite Veteran Posts: 863	I have some 2pc O-rings, and a 2pc D-ring on hand. However I'm wondering if a 3pc would be best for a young horse in learning to bend and flex and so on? It's a 4yr old that will ride in a smooth mouth or thicker twisted mouthpiece. Anyone have some favorite snaffles you care to share and why you like them? I was wondering if and offset O Ring would be ok to work with a martingale as well? Thanks!
