The Full Cheek Bit features two extended bars on the sides, preventing it from being pulled through the horse’s mouth while applying gentle pressure to the cheeks. This design enhances straightness and lateral stability, making it an excellent choice for training young horses.

The effectiveness of a Full Cheek bit depends on factors such as type, thickness, and material, ranging from mild to more pronounced. To improve stability and prevent the bars from getting caught under the noseband, full cheek loops can be added to the bridle.

With its stable and direct contact, the Full Cheek Bit encourages responsiveness and balanced communication, helping the horse stay engaged and on track in a soft, supportive way.
