Bridge the gap between a snaffle and a curb bit with a design that fosters confidence and soft, clear communication. The Professional’s Choice Bob Avila Daisy Straight Roller provides the perfect amount of lift and lateral collection without the intimidation of harsh leverage.

Meticulously engineered for the transitioning horse, this bit features a sweet iron mouthpiece and a copper center roller that work in harmony to promote a moist, relaxed mouth. The straight bar design is hinged to allow for subtle independent movement, helping you achieve precise cues while the shorter 6-inch shanks offer a mild, forgiving leverage that suits sensitive horses, seasoned veterans, and those in training alike.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Ideal Transition Bit: Specifically designed as a "starter" leverage bit for horses moving from a basic snaffle to a curb bit.
• Sweet Iron & Copper Roller: The mouthpiece is designed to rust over time, creating a sweet taste that stimulates salivation and encourages a soft, responsive jaw.
• Lateral Collection and Lift: The hinged straight bar design encourages your horse to lift their front end and respond with grace to subtle lateral cues.
• Mild 6-Inch Shanks: These shorter "little shanks" provide gentle leverage, making this bit a top choice for Western Pleasure, Reining, and trail riding.
• Standard 5-Inch Mouthpiece: Sized for the average horse to ensure a comfortable fit with proper clearance to prevent the shanks from pinching the lips.

• Elegant Daisy Detailing: Features a beautiful, timeless daisy design on the shanks that combines professional-grade performance with classic Western style.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why is the mouthpiece starting to rust?
A: Rusting is a beneficial feature of this bit! The sweet iron is designed to oxidize when exposed to moisture, which creates a sweet taste that horses love, encouraging them to salivate and accept the bit more readily.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse that is sensitive to leverage?
A: Yes, this is an excellent choice for sensitive horses. The 6-inch shanks provide mild leverage that is communicative rather than intimidating, allowing you to guide your horse without causing resistance or discomfort.
