The Reinsman Josey Mitchell Gooseneck Go Around Shank Gag Bit is a co-designed bit by the Hall of Fame and World Champion Barrel Racer, Martha Josey and her leading instructor, Ty Mitchell. It features stops on the 8 1/2" shanks that help the copper wrapped dog bone mouthpiece stay in place for the right amount of gag action, while the longer shank increases leverage for added control. The 3 piece mouthpiece offers additional leverage to the corners of the mouth, providing a more responsive feel. This bit is ideal for those seeking more control and help with shaping their horse for turns. The longer shank offers additional leverage, while the slide cheek piece enables shaping and rounding out the horse in the turn. It is recommended for intermediate to advanced level horses in competition. The large ring at the top of the bit is the headstall ring, with the curb chain ring off the back of it, sitting slightly higher up on the jaw. The small ring on the purchase just below the headstall ring serves as the stop for the slide of the mouthpiece and is not intended for curb attachment. The lower ring is the rein connection ring. It is important to use this bit with a curb chain or strap to prevent the shanks from twisting beyond a 45 degree angle when engaged. As your horse progresses into Stage E, they are indicating a readiness to train with professionals. This stage requires the use of tiny twists, very high ports, and highly intricate mouthpieces as essential components. The product number for this gag bit is 0119-2000 and comes with a lifetime warranty.

 

Reinsman Bit Stages

Stage A= These bits are great for starting horses, training, or maintaining steady contact. Aspects include direct reining, non-leverage Loose Rings and Dee Rings with mouthpiece diameters 5/16” and over.

Stage B =Moving from Direct Reining to Neck Reining? Stage B is all about transition, with the introduction of leverage and curb pressure. Short Shanked bits and Half-Gags comprise Stage B.

Stage C =Horses who respond well to poll pressure are in Stage C. Features include solid mouthpieces and cheek attachments, and swivel cheeks with jointed mouthpieces or low to medium ports

Stage D =Stage D is about refinement, subtle cues and quick communication. Characteristics include increased leverage, more sophisticated mouthpieces, and may also incorporate higher ports.

Stage E =When your horse enters Stage E – he’s asking for some time with the Pros. Here tiny twists, very high ports, and highly complex mouthpieces are key components
