Barry & Laurel Denton Bits 

Personally, I think horses themselves may not agree with you.

Tell me you’ve never trained a horse to a high level without telling me. I reckon you’d put Cytek shoes on your horse and brag about it.

@@andrewcameron1346 You are showing your ignorance. Bits were designed to be used for pain compliance. Do what is best for the horse. Or are you afraid you can not control a horse without a bit? Many do not use a bit and have achieved the highest level of horsemanship.

@@gerrycoleman7290 there are a whole variety of bits, specifically within the vaquero tradition (which NRCHA parodys) that offer the rider no leverage and sometimes negative leverage. Spades and ring bits are actually so mild that horses often take off with them, a testament to how light they are on a horse. Some bits are shit, but to lump every bit into that pile is ignorant.

@@johnnyflores8870 Bits are pain compliance devices. Period. Some traditions are best left behind as in the case of the use of the spade bit from the Vaquero tradition. True horsemanship would not need the bit. There are plenty of working cowboys that use rope halters or traditional hackamores or no head gear at all. You need to get out more.
