My ex, Sterling White, hasretired from the show ring and is selling a few of his best bits.

This “sweet mouth” bridle is afavorite with horses because of the copper inlays. The inlays cover the entirebit where it touches the tongue and the cricket is also copper. (There is somerust on the top of the bit which I did not remove. For newbies, horses lovethe taste of rust.)

From the Vogt website:

Typically Argentines are our best sellers because anyone can use them. These are the quintessential example of \"user-friendly\" bits for both horse and rider.Usually fairly low in leverage and very flexible, the shanks are seven inches or shorter, and are often made with broken mouthpieces and swivel cheeks that make for a primary schooling bit. They are used to introduce leverage to young horses or to rectify certain problems of mature horses. Also, they are really handy to have around because one works on all horses.Unless you are trying to reach higher levels of performance, this type of bit will serve you well. If you are on the way to higher performance, one of these is as necessary to your \"tool box\" as a screwdriver or a pair of pliers.

The initials “SW”lightly etched on the inside of the purchase above the floret. Rust on the metal on the backside of the floret.
