Quick win! Have a better ride TODAY by making sure your bridle fits! Thank you bit and bridle fitter @comfortfitequine for teaching me these tips!

 

1.) Check your crown piece - it should comfortably fit between the horse’s first cervical vertebrae (aka the Atlas) and their ears

 

2.) Make sure the TMJ has clearance from the brow band and cheek pieces

 

3.) Double check the noseband isn’t too tight- you must be able to fit two fingers between the nose band and the nasal bone!
