A gag bit is a specialized bit designed for riders who need extra control and more direct communication with their horse. At Unamari, we offer a carefully selected range of gag bits for horses, developed in Denmark by our own brand Horse Guard. Our gag bits are ideal for riders who have strong, forward-moving horses - or horses that tend to lay heavily in the hand and hang on the bit.
What is a gag bit?
A gag bit differs from traditional bits by distributing pressure differently and reinforcing the rider's signals. When you pull on the reins, the cheek pieces slide up through the rings of the bit, causing the bit to lift in the horse's mouth. This creates a more direct pressure on the gums, resulting in a sharper contact than, for example, a regular bridle bit.
This feature makes gag bits for horses particularly suitable for disciplines such as jumping and field riding, where it is necessary to correct quickly and effectively without losing refined contact. Remember that gag bits are not allowed in dressage competitions.
