Why wouldn't you?? Studies have shown that bitless bridles are as safe as using bits, and are less stressful and painful to horses. Click Here for links to Research and Articles about bitless horses.
Any horse can go bitless, but not every rider (or driver). It takes courage to trust that you are in control and safe the first time you try bitless. Most people are surprised to discover what a non event their first trial of bitless is for their horse, and but it can be such an exciting milestone for the rider or driver. Just like any other tool or piece of tack, as long as you prepare your horse properly, you will find the transition straightforward, and enjoyable for both you and your horse. Ensuring your horse is safe comes from good training, not equipment.
With the huge variety of bitless bridles now available, there is one to suit you, your horse and your chosen sport. Bitless Inc has established a Bitless Bridle Bank, so you can test different styles at home with your own horse, making it easier than ever to choose the right bridle for you. Its a great low cost opportunity for the bitless-curious to give it a go and see what all the fuss is about, without having to commit to a purchase.
Additionally, Bitless Inc will be offering our Enthusiast Members access to new online courses to help them transition to bitless with guidance support and encouragement. Check our newsletter or follow Bitless Inc on Social Media to join in as soon as this begins.
The Bitless Bridle Bank, and our upcoming online courses are offered as an independent service for the benefit of our Members, and to help make transitioning to bitless easier, and safer.
