Are You Ready for a Double Bridle?

A double or Weymouth bridle uses two bits; the double bridle bits are the Bradoon bit or snaffle and the Weymouth bit or curb. Using the bridle correctly improves collection and self-carriage and therefore refines and finesses communication between rider and horse. However, when used to soon this bridle can cause anxiety, mouth problems, and irreparable damage to the horse. The article “Are You Ready for a Double Bridle?” in Dressage Today reviews important factors to consider before making the transition. Most importantly, always consult with an experienced trainer or USDF Certified Instructor before introducing this type of bridle for the first time.
