Full Cheek Snaffle Bits
Description
A full cheek snaffle bit is a type of horse bit with long cheek pieces that extend above and below the mouthpiece. These cheek pieces prevent the bit from sliding sideways in the horse’s mouth, offering more lateral control. It is commonly used in training young or green horses to improve steering. The mouthpiece can vary—single-jointed, double-jointed, or mullen—to suit the horse’s needs. Full cheek bits provide gentle pressure on the sides of the mouth and face. They are often used with bit keepers to hold the bit in place. This bit promotes better communication and balance between horse and rider.
