The Complete Book of Bits & Bitting

Merely changing a bit can transform a balky, hard-to-control horse into a smooth, contented partner. With this comprehensive, practical guide, every equestrian will experience the rewards of using exactly the right piece of equipment. Descriptions cover every known bit -- from the simple snaffle to the double bridle. And, because the he paraphernalia can't be isolated from riding practice, there are suggestions for making the best use of the information and for bridle and bit combinations that solve specific problems.
