Showman S Shank with Jointed Twisted Wire Dogbone

 The S cheek gives a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage. It picks up clean, stays balanced in the hand, and resets without getting heavy. This design provides a steady, readable feel while keeping signals consistent through rate and collection.The twisted wire dogbone mouthpiece adds definition on the bars for horses that tend to lean, while the jointed center allows each side to move independently for clearer lateral cues and less palate pinch than a single joint. Copper rollers at the center encourage moisture and acceptance, helping horses stay softer and more responsive while you shape bend and balance. Best suited for experienced hands, this bit gives extra respect without sacrificing clarity.Showman® Premium BitsEach Showman® bit is forged and finished by hand with solid welds and balanced leverage for professional use.Twisted wire sides for more defined bar contactJointed dogbone center for independent side movement and clean lateral controlCopper rollers promote salivation, acceptance, and a quieter mouthS cheek (7 ½) for progressive leverage with a smooth pickup and releaseBest in experienced hands or for horses that lean on a smooth mouthpieceDetailMeasurement MaterialMouthpiece5 twisted wire with jointed dogbone and copper rollersPort HeightNA (dogbone)Port WidthNA (dogbone)Shank StyleS ShankShank Length7 ½FinishHand-forged steelBit SeverityFeelModerate to stronger; best for experienced handsUseHorses that lean on smooth mouths, tuning, or adding respect
