Just wondering if anyone has tried, used or is using this Pozzi bit. If so, what did you like or not like about it?

I have it and have maybe used it 5 times. I didn't like the weight of the bit itself. It's very light made.

I use it most of the time, in competition only
It's plenty of bit for Brother Dave, and I get control when he gets going! ;)

I agree with this.
I'd rather have something with some weight to it

I have the non twisted wire version of this. It gives me plenty of lift but I don't ride it consistantly because its not quite enough bit for my big jug head. Works well enough for tuning sessions. I just personally cannot apply this bit with a ton of gas or Ill have a run off. :)

My same thoughts. I've used it maybe a handful of times and now it just hangs in the trailer.

I agree with the weight. It seems very flimsy and light. It actually looks better in the picture than it does in real life. The metal looked more 'flattened' to me versus round like how it is in the picture. I was pretty turned off by it. I am curious how people like the Elliott version, since those have a great weight to them.

This is how it looks in person.....which IMO looks nothing like the picture you posted.

I use the short shanked version of the non-twisted one. It is very light, but it is enough bit for my mare who is gonna turn or rate if you touch her face at all. I like it for what I need it for.

I like the JD Morrow version better. His is pretty dang close to the Dave Elliot.

I use it on my little horse and like it.  It has a nice feel to me and he seems to like it the best of everything I've tried.  I don't think it has a lot of whoa behind it.  

I am going to order the Elliott version (which from what I've heard the Pozzi is a China knockoff of his) because I know it is something that works with my hands and my horse likes that reverse gag.   And I'm sure the Elliott is better balanced and higher quality.

Overall, I don't think it's a bad little bit for the money.  I do think there are better quality versions out there but they are also quite a bit more expensive.
