Just a few thoughts I wanted to pass on from my experience with Ring Bits or Chilleno Bits. Use CODE : FFSave10 for 10% off my book "A Started Colt" readerhouse.com/products/the-... To get alerts from new videos please subscribe
This video turned up in my suggested so I watched. One time when I was young and even more confused, a guy a lot smarter than me traded me a halfbreed converted to have a detachable ring. No maker on bit, but was repaired with an Al teigen cross bar. Anyway, that was the only real bridal set up I had for years(Romal reins etc.) . Eventually the threads stripped out for the ring. I’m no hand with a bridal and I guess I never will be, but I will vouch for how good of a tool a ring bit is, and that it works in a different way than a lot of people first think.
Bret, that was excellent! I have often wondered about ring bits and how/why they were used. BTW, if you ever put on a clinic, this ole lady wants to be on the list. Thank you!
Good info Bret. Ring bit was the next on my to build list until I started climbing under horses more than on top. Been hearing good things about your book. Keep it up
@@HorsemanshipAsAnArt Thanks! I'll get ahold of you through fb in the future on those measurements. I've been getting the itch to start another bridle prospect.
Thank you for the great explanation. Do the loose rings for the purchase account for the 0 leverage? What makes the 2 have negative leverage? Is it the fact that the rein to shank connection sits in front of the mouth piece? It was hard to tell watching on my phone
How does the ring bit work? Do you still use a curb/chin strap? Is it inserted into the mouth with the ring under the port & everything over the tongue?
