Showman® Premium Bits

Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use. The Argentine cheek offers a quick pickup, mild leverage, and an easy reset, keeping signals light, direct, and easy for the horse to understand. This makes it a reliable choice for riders who want balanced leverage without adding weight or intimidation to the cue.

The mouthpiece combines slow-twisted bars with a three-piece lifesaver center. The slow twist provides added definition on the bars without the harsh bite of a fast twist, while the lifesaver lies flatter on the tongue to reduce palate pinch and distribute pressure more evenly. Independent side movement helps deliver clear lateral cues, making this bit especially useful for shaping bend, shoulder control, and straightness.
