Episode #51: Bit Fitting With Diana Giles

Your horse’s comfort in the bridle affects more than its mouth. The level of trust your horse has of your hand, ultimately makes or breaks its entire self carriage.

And, a well fitted bit affects the movement and shape of the horse from head to tail.

Join me for this episode where I chat with bit fitting expert Diana Giles. We look at considerations for fitting a bit conformationally, all the myths about bit fitting we’ve been told in the past, and how to work with a professional bit fitter to ensure your horse is in the correct equipment.
