Re: [RC] [Guest] Bits - Stephanie E Caldwell

I don't really know, so if someone DOES, set the record straight please
and stop flaming each other for your different practices.

I, too, grew up with a trainer that refused to allow her horses to eat with
a bit in her mouth, but I don't see any way that it could affect their
eating much. A properly fitted bit sits on the bars between their teeth, may
not be the most comfortable thing to wear all the time, but I don't see it
choking a horse unless the bit is so large that they can't close their mouth
or sharp enough to damage their tongue.

I'm sure I made a few enemies with this post, but for a helpful,
knowledgable group, you peeps seem to sling a lot of mud at each other.
JMHO.

I haven't seen any mud flinging or flaming going on...

Steph
