Eggbutt Gag Elliptical Ultra Comfy

The Eggbutt cheek piece prevents pinching of the lips and gives a solid feel against the side of the face. It also prevents the bit being pulled through the mouth. The release is slower than the loose ring and also introduces light poll pressure.

The mouthpiece has been ergonomically shaped, offering a generous curve, to follow the shape of the horse’s mouth.

A gag works by lifting the bit in the mouth in order to encourage the head to be raised. Often used on strong horses that like to lower their heads in order to escape the action of the bit in the mouth and get very strong.

When pressure is applied to the rein, the bit is lifted in the mouth and poll pressure is applied. The bit also rotates slightly in the mouth putting more pressure on the tongue and bars.

Cheekpiece

The cheekpiece is available in 2 sizes, standard and a slightly smaller model for a pony.
