I’m going through the biting process with my new horse so this was really really interesting to watch & has given me some ideas for what she might like! Love your videos thank you! X
This is just amazing to know! Now I really want to try different kind of bits on the Fjord horse I'm riding! :D
Thank you!
With your fjord you do eventing ? I really love the breed but don’t know if they are good eventers and what level they can reach ..
@@Zzz-ql5tn Sadly not started yet, but we have been XC'ing and jumping him. But with my fjords endurance he could do eventing easily. It all just depends on the horse. :) Good luck!
This was AWESOME! I am fascinated by the logic behind bitting, I love that you make sure they are in something they find comfortable- if you have to have a foreign object crammed into your mouth, it might as well be something you find tolerable, haha! Your horse children are very lucky!
(I love how you compared stretching the bit ring to childbirth, haha- I haven't had kids either, and won't, and that is one of the reasons, and although I do have many more valid reasons, OUCH!)
I love seeing the equipment and tack you use, it is fascinating!
And as always, you are super fun to watch!
Anyway, WHO can resist bubble wrap?😝 I know I can't, haha!
I did wonder whether I should’ve mentioned the part about childbirth lol!
Just love Bombers bits all of my horses are ridden in them and I can notice a big deferance!
Isn’t it amazing!!
I would love to know more about these bits please! 🤓 What differences have you noticed? Thanks in advance!
Your such an inspiration
Hi Amanda hope you are OK not seen you here for a while live your utube channel hope to see you soon x
I tried the dc morgan with my horse who's over sensitive to any type of pinching. He got the bit guard into his mouth...somehow. He also just doesn't like ports as they can pinch skin over his narrow bars. Hes in a single joint eggbut now. He takes a 140/5.5 for his lips but his bars are so narrow that if he had normal lip flesh he could take a 115/4.5 bit. He's a special dude. He was a whole crash course in bitting. Lol
I tried the DC Morgan on my boy who is very sensitive but also gets quite strong and I've never found anything better! He goes so, so nicely in it and I didn't even know there was an issue there until I tried it out!
Hi Amanda! Thanks so much for the super informative video! I just took on a very green project horse, and she is VERY sensitive to the bit (throws/tosses head, pulls at the reins, protests almost any movement/aid from the hand). I’ve been experimenting with different bits to see what she prefers. Currently I am riding her in a pretty thin loose ring French link as apprised to the thick barred double jointed snaffle she came with (to see if she prefers less in her mouth, although I worry about the pressure points this thinner bit puts on the bars of her mouth). She doesn’t seems to like or dislike the French link anymore than the thicker snaffle, yet she still isn’t too keen on any sort of contact/movement in her mouth (again she is still green as grass so I know this is also a learning curve for her in general). I am wanting to try her in a happy mouth bit, or wrapping her current French link in latex...any other suggestions for this oober sensitive greeny?? Thanks!!
Maddie, maybe a Bombers cable snaffle?
Hi Amanda!! Absolutely love your videos. I was wondering if you could do a video about your nutrition and how you keep healthy!
I dont even ride with a bit, but still watched the entire thing haha, very informative and educational! Never knew there were sooo many options :o
I'm such a bit nerd so I loved this video even though I don't ride anymore
Brilliant video, really informative. Thank you ☺️
Hugo loves his DC Morgan Dressage he has a small mouth for such a big boy & he’s very tongue sensitive, it’s the only bit I’ve tried (& you know I have a few bits... I have a bit of an obsession 😂) that he not only accept it he reaches for it, we love it 😊
Great video 👍
haha the comment about having kids!!!
Amanda many thanks for great info with your Bomber Bit choices. Could you suggest a choice for my heavy forehand Friesian ., some tongue relief would be good and also bar relief also. I thought the DC Morgan? As it gives a lot of choice for my big lad 17-1 + with how he might like it. But would love you opinion🙋🏼♀️.
Great content!!
Do you have any experience or advice for a horse that sticks his tongue out?? Only really a problem in the dressage. Tried loose Ring happy tongue and various other ported bits that has been advised to me but all to no avail! Very tired of having the extra marks added to the test just because of this!!
HOPE all OK ???? Missing you on the TUBE !!!! Hope all the horses are ok ?😘
Great video id love to try a bomber bit is there a way to try them? Also does every horse wear a cavesson and flash nose band and why ?
Kelly if you contact TheBitFitter on Instagram, Gary may be able to help you out with Bombers trials/fitting?
I use a cavesson because they’re simple, & a flash if they are a bit wiggly in the mouth. None of them are tight though.
@@amandarosseventingfit6803 ok thank you .
😃😃😄😄😁🐴🐎🐎
Hello Amanda, how’s things going we are missing new content on your Chanel any new stuff coming???
Kaz a big fan
Hi...
I’m in need of buying two new saddles from bates (show jumping and dressage ) what ones would you recommend??
Grace it depends what you like to ride in? Personally I love the Artiste for dressage, followed by the Innova. I jump in the Victrix & absolutely love it! Will you be ordering them online?
@@amandarosseventingfit6803 yeah I would probably order online
Awesoem!! So, if you order online IN AUSTRALIA, you’ll receive a 10% discount by using the AROSSVIP720 !! And that certainly adds up!!
Love the vid!!! What happened to diesel?? Will he go back to competing??
Tara he’s retired from too many niggling injuries! I still work him at home, & he can do a bit of jumping, hacking out etc. Just no official competitions. It’s a huge pity but I had to do the right thing by him.
@@amandarosseventingfit6803 Yer, I will definitely miss watching him go-round at the shows and events.
I just can’t get over how harsh they look!! But I’m sure you wouldn’t hurt your horses!
Only as harsh as the hands that use them :)
As always, great video! 🤩🤩🤩
I’m desperately trying to find the right bit for my sensitive mare. I’ve got a few questions for you:
1. Does the DC Morgan’s actions resembles a Baucher at all?
2. Is it a coincidence that all your horses go in a Mullen/ported mouth piece (as opposed to double-jointed)?
3. I’ve always heard that a non-articulated mouth piece wasn’t ideal for dressage. Your video clearly contradicts this! Can you explain how so?
Many thanks in advance!

***EDIT*** I only now realise that DC stands for Drop Cheek! Haha so The DC Morgan is a type of Baucher, just with swiveling top rings for the cheek pieces. Correct?
When are you going to post again? It’s been 8 months!!!! CZcams is missing you!!!!😭
