 The Reinsman Josey Mitchell Skinny Arch Short Lifter Gag Bit is designed to lift and stabilize horses that have a tendency to drop their shoulders. The bit has a 5 1/2" mullen mouthpiece with 7 inch stainless steel shank cheeks. Tightening the curb increases leverage for shoulder lift and rate. This bit is a valuable addition to any tack room as it helps control the rib cage by preventing a naturally bendy horse from bending too much at the neck. It stabilizes the shoulder for turns and provides a moderate amount of "Whoa" with its shorter shank. The slight gag action ensures quick responses, making it suitable for intermediate to advanced level horses in both practice and competition. The round ring is for the headstall, while the tear drop ring is for the reins, ensuring faster response. Proper fit involves the mouth resting at its lowest position on the cheek, allowing it to float upward with rein pressure. Correct curb chain tightness involves spacing the chain two fingers away from the horse's jaw. Tightening the curb beyond this point increases leverage for more lift and rate. Checking curb chain tightness can be done by pulling on the reins; the proper beginning tightness is achieved when the cheeks do not rotate beyond a 45-degree angle. Stage C bits are designed for equestrians and their horses who prefer neck reining. These bits are most suitable for horses that are responsive to pressure on their poll.  The product style number is 0119-1000 Reinsman Bit StagesStage 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 portsStage 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
