Description
This Herm Sprenger® Sensogan® Bemelmans Weymouth Bit has a 14 mm mouth and 13 cm shanks (7 cm lower shanks). Sensogan, a proprietary blend of copper, zinc and manganese, has a pleasant taste that encourages salivation and bit acceptance.
This Weymouth bit has a high, smooth, rounded and forward-angled port that eliminates tongue pressure. The mouth is shaped to the sensitive palatal arch and tapered towards the center. The design virtually neutralizes the horse’s impulse to put its tongue over the bit, and it enables particularly sensitive rein aids.
The Bemelmans is ideal for horses with fleshy tongues and horses that evade tongue pressure by pulling up or sticking out the tongue. Due to longer shanks, this bit provides a higher poll pressure, and the leverage effect is slightly delayed.
