This option has the bridoon (smaller) cheek. A standard size cheek is also available. The smaller cheek is suitable to use as a bridoon or as a snaffle on a smaller head.
The Turtle Tactio (With flex) mouthpiece was specifically engineered to accommodate the larger or sensitive tongue.
In conjunction with the Eggbutt cheek, this design adds stability often proving a confidence giver leading towards a more consistent contact. The Eggbutt reinforces the turning and straightening aids. Particularly useful for the young horse in order to establish bend etc. Also highly recommended for the novice rider who may not fully support the inside rein as the Eggbutt will not allow the mouthpiece to slide across to the inside (a neat snug fit is required).
The hire period is 30 days from the date you receive the bit and if you have any queries or questions during this time, please contact me.
The full price is paid at the time of purchase and if the bit is returned, a refund less the hire charge (£14.50 per bit * NS Turtle Tilt is £35.00 hire charge) and postage is processed.
Please take care of the bit and keep it in good condition during the hire period. Damaged or broken bits cannot be returned.
Don't worry about teeth marks - this sometimes happens with warmer sweeter metals - or oxidation - this happens with sweet iron and has a rusty appearance.
Both are perfectly normal and will not affect me accepting the bit back.
It is your responsibility to ensure that the bit is kept safe from damage, theft and loss during the trial period.
All bits must be returned in clean condition and we ask that you wash
the bit gently but thoroughly in warm water to remove any grass, food
etc.
