The Eggbutt snaffle is characterized by a fixed ring. The sides should lie about one centimeter closer to the corners of the mouth compared to a loose ring snaffle. The Eggbutt prevents the corners of the mouth from being pinched by the rings. The horse cannot lift the bit with its tongue, so the mouthpiece stays calmer in the mouth and is somewhat more stabilized laterally. Since the ring does not rotate, there is a minimally more direct action with a slight effect on the poll. However, the difference from a loose ring snaffle is hardly noticeable for the horse or most riders. The double-jointed mouthpiece distributes the pressure evenly over the tongue and bars. The Eggbutt provides slight lateral stabilization and guidance, creating calmness and stability in the horse’s mouth. The sweet-tasting SWEET Copper is particularly well accepted by horses and promotes chewing.
