Showman Long S Shank with Smooth Dogbone - 5 inch
Product Details
Forged and Finished by Hand!
- Mouthpiece: 5" three-piece smooth dogbone.
- Shank: 8 ½" Long S Shank.
- Hand-forged steel.
- Bit Severity / Feel: Moderate; clear, lateral-focused cues.
- Used for Softening, lateral control, shaping bend and body alignment.
Each Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use. The Long S cheek offers a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage that provides a clean pickup, clear release, and balanced feel in the hand. This design helps maintain steady communication without adding weight, making it ideal for shaping bend, guiding rate, and keeping a horse soft through the body.
The smooth dogbone is a three-piece mouthpiece that lies flatter across the tongue, reducing the nutcracker effect common in two-piece snaffles. Its independent side action allows each cheek to move separately, giving riders crisp lateral control, clearer shoulder placement, and a more refined feel for shaping turns and softness.
Size: 5"
