Happy Tongue Cherry Roller 2.5 Ring Eggbutt

The Happy Tongue Cherry Roller 2.5 Ring Eggbutt by Bombers Bits prevents pinching of the lips and give a slightly more solid feel against the side of the face. As a result, it also prevents the bit being pulled through the mouth. The release is slower and also introduces some poll pressure.

A Ring cheekpiece introduces poll pressure as well creating leverage on the mouthpiece, the 2½ Ring version is the softest version of ring bit as the ½ ring softens the leverage on the mouthpiece and poll.

The Happy Tongue is a solid mouth piece. It is curved and ported to give tongue relief. The Happy Tongue would be a good place to start if your horse is:

  • Shaking its head
  • Sticking its tongue out
  • Sucking its tongue back and as a result making an intermittent coughing noise
  • Trying to put its tongue over the bit
  • Going behind the bit to avoid the contact
  • Snatching the reins forward and down

Furthermore, the rider will know immediately if this is the correct bit.
