Members Gypsy Posted February 2, 2011 Members Report Posted February 2, 2011 Does anyone know how much shorter a gag bit headstall needs to be?? Quote
Members Aggiebraider Posted February 3, 2011 Members Report Posted February 3, 2011 I think it depends on the bit. Some gags have longer shanks than others. I have also seen some that wouldnt work with a leather headstall very well, because they use a nylon cord that actually fives the slide action of the bit and it moves up the headstall to gag the horse. Sorry I dont have real numbers for you, I would start with getting the bit or at least measurements for the bit, and maybe even put it on the horse with a piece of cheap nylon cord and when you get it where you want it, make that measurement your center hole. Hope this helps, CW Quote
