0113-1000 JOSEY GO-AROUND WITH NOSEBAND

Introducing our 0113-1000 Josey Go Around with Noseband. This bit features a three-piece twisted wire dog bone mouthpiece and a rope noseband. The copper dog bone keeps the mouth moist, while the twisted wire provides a slight bite for the horse who tends to get heavy on the bridle. Equipped with 7 1/2" cheeks, this bit is an excellent option if you want more bend, lift, and moderate rate.

IDEAL FOR:
• The horse that needs additional help with rating down when approaching the barrel.
• The horse that tends to get heavy on the bridle.
• People looking to achieve more lift and bend in timed events.
• People looking to give their horse more response time in timed events.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT:
• The noseband conforms well and works on the bridge of the nose for rate and added control.
• Three-piece mouthpiece offers a more even distribution of pressure while also aiding in preventing the “nutcracker” effect on the jaw.
• Copper dogbone promotes salivation for a more soft supple mouth.
• Twisted pieces for added “bite” for the horse that gets heavy on the bridle.
• Gag action sends pre-signals before pressure is applied.

HELPFUL TIPS:
• Applies pressure to the tongue and bars when pressure is applied to the reins.
• Curb chain tightness allows for the customization of pressure.
• Start loose and increase tightness for additional control or increased signaling.
• The waxed rope nose starts rigid and softens over time, so you may add vet wrap or mule tape to the rope nose until it fully breaks in to reduce severity; this is optional.
• This bit falls into our Stage D category; Stage D bits are used to achieve refinement through subtle cues and quick communication. Characteristics in Stage D include increased leverage, more sophisticated mouthpieces coupled with rope nosebands, and may incorporate higher ports.

MORE DETAILS:
• All leverage bits should be used with a curb chain to function correctly. Without a curb chain, a shanked bit can rotate back toward the rider. Curb chains should stop the shank’s rotation at approximately 45 degrees.
• Cheeks are made of medical-grade stainless steel to prevent rust and guarantee longevity.
• Each bit is closely inspected by a team of expert craftsmen who pride themselves on the quality of their workmanship.
• Three-piece twisted mouthpiece with copper dogbone center
• 7 1/2" Cheek
• 5 1/2" Mouth
