Crafted with precision, this bit features a unique design that transforms from a double broken mouthpiece to a straight bar when pressure is applied to the reins, thanks to the Nelson Gag cheek piece action. The Nelson Gag cheek piece provides a leverage effect, encouraging the horse to respond to rein aids more effectively, making it an ideal choice for horses that tend to go against the hand. Once the pressure is released, the bit seamlessly changes back to its original double-jointed mouthpiece.

Our Twisted Locking Dog Bone Nelson Gag Bit is specifically designed for horses that become strong or pull against the hand. The locking mechanism engages at a certain angle, providing added stability and control, further supported by the Nelson Gag cheek piece action that amplifies the bit’s impact through leverage. The Nelson gag cheek piece also assists the rider with steering and turning. 

The double-jointed dog bone mouthpiece, resembling its namesake, significantly reduces the nutcracker effect on the horse’s mouth, promoting a comfortable and relaxed riding experience, especially for horses with a low palate. As the bit locks and operates like a straight bar, it delivers a sharper action than a smooth standard double-jointed mouthpiece, making it ideal for horses who have become unresponsive to rounded mouthpieces.
