Lunging with common-sense
Barefoot has invented a sensible
lunging-bit. When taking a look at the commonly used lunging straps Barefoot discovered a few things that bothered them:
- The snaps with which they are normally hooked to the snaffle, rattle and jingle all the time and are annoying.
-
The lunge can only be attached in the middle, causing the snaffle to be pulled out of the mouth on the outward side which in return applies a wrong cue, aside from dulling the horse's sensitivity. (This also
happens when lunging without a snaffle!)
We can do better than that:
The Barefoot Lunging Bit - Expert does away with annoying snaps and offers a smart Quick-Change fastening made from real leather. The ring for attaching the lunge turns and moves freely so it doesn't jerk the horse's mouth - the horse can easily be directed into a different direction.
