Sonora Pearl Ball Correctional

Just like most of the bits we offer, the slider concept came trying to address a need.  I was helping a friend who had been riding Cutting horses and moved over to riding Reiners.  She had really fast hands.  Fast hands and Reiners do not go together.  I simply put a port in a gag shank, hopefully, to help slow her hands down, but once I rode in it I could see a use for it in a lot of places.  The gag works as a shock absorber between the horses face and the riders hand, giving a horse time to understand what the rider is asking it to do.  The slider shanks come with a horizontal bottom ring that adds to the lateral pull. Helps with more leverage than the 4.5, this shank is 5.5.

This mouthpiece is a 3/8" spherical bar and is more aggressive than a straight 3/8" round bar.  Does not create a shocky response.
