A ( gentle) bit for a horse
An egg butt bit is a type of snaffle bit (a bit that has no leverage effects on the horse's head position). "egg butt" refers to the shape of the ring. This bit is very mild, with the same effect as a loose or "o" ring snaffle, except it is less ikely to pinch the horse's lips.
I'm not that good with bits, but I can tell you that a kimberwick bit is a lot harser than a snaffle and a snaffle is generally referred to as a training bit.
A snaffle is midler. A pellam is a combination of a curb and a snaffle. It has a curb chain and can be very harsh. Of course, a bit is only ever as harsh as the hands that hold the reins.
There are many kind snaffle bits available at the moment, but the French Link snaffle bit, a bit that has two joints in the middle rather than one, is considered one of the kindest.
The snaffle is a type of bit. A similar word is stifle, which is a hind leg joint in the horse.

A snaffle with two joints reduces the "nutcracker" effect to a degree because it comforms more to the shape of horses' mouths compared to the V of a single jointed snaffle that pinches on the bars and may even send the point into the roof of the mouth. So, the snaffle with two joints is less severe than a single jointed snaffle.
Yes it is as a D ring bit is always a weaker one.
A D-ring bit can be a snaffle bit. A snaffle is any type of jointed bit. But not all snaffles are D-rings; a D-ring is a bit where the ring is shaped like the letter D.
A kimblewick bit has a slight curb action. A snaffle can be plain or jointed but a kimblewick is normally plain.
the beginner rider should be riding a beginner level horse. a beginner horse should be able to go in a snaffle. our beginnger horses go in a full cheek copper twist or a snaffle double jointed
Hi It depends what you want your horse to do. If you arte having trouble stopping and your horse has a plain snaffle you could try a 3 ring snaffle on the lower rings or a dutch gag. For dressage a doiuble bridle is allowed in certain levels but a french link snaffle or and eggbutt snaffle would be better if not a double. Hope this helps.
