A bitless bridle is a term that describes a wide variety of headgear for horses that controls the horses without placing a bit in the horse's mouth. A bitless bridle allows the rider to steer the horse more smoothly and reduces pain for the horse.

A bridle with no bit is called a what?

A bit is the part of the bridle that gets put in the horse's mouth. It is usually metal. It's used for control. The reigns are connected to it. A bridle without a bit is built differently to put pressure on different pars of the horse's head to give the rider control with the reigns. Though many riders use bitless bridles for many many reasons, I like them because when my horse and I go on trail rides, we can stop and take a break and I can let my horse eat grass without the hassle of changing from bridle to halter.
