Improved Comfort +Improved Communication +Improved Control = Informed Bitting
The sum adds up!

Private Bitting Days are suitable for a group of friends or associates wishing to learn more about Bitting and who would like individual advice for their own Horses.

The day will start with a short informal General Bitting talk which is designed to make the group think about their own Horses and what sort of issues we are looking at when we look at Horses to re-bit it.

At each talk we will discuss:
" General considerations before we talk of changing bits.
" Conventional Bit designs and how they work in the Horse's mouth.
" Myler Bit designs and how they work in the Horse's mouth.
" How to understand Resistances.
" How to access the structure of a Horse's mouth.
" The Myler Bitting System and Philosophy.
" How to fit Bits and Combination Bits.
" How to select the right bit for your Horse.
" How to transition him into his new bit successfully.

A full range of bits will be displayed, literature is provided and there is an ongoing Bitting help line as backup

After the talk we will look at each Horse ridden individually in the tack it normally goes in and then make an assessment of what both Horse and Rider need based on the way the Horse goes and the information the Rider/Trainer gives.
Each Horse will take approximately one hour.
