The Reinsman Martha Josey Go Around Low Port Mullen Gag Bit features a brown iron, low port mouthpiece that is very comfortable to many horses. This bit provides excellent handling qualities. The "stops" on the 7 5/8" stainless steel shanks help the mouthpiece stay in place, giving the rider the right amount of gag action. The benefit of using a mullen mouthpiece is that it provides stability, can help straighten up your over-turny barrel horses, and is considered to be more gentle than a jointed mouthpiece as there is no pinching effect when the reins are pulled. 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 number for the Reinsman Martha Josey Go Around Low Port Mullen Gag Bit is BIT0113-0000 and has 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
