Why the Greeley Bit Belongs in Your Tack Room

• Maximum Vertical Lift. The 9 1/4\" long shanks provide the leverage needed to pick up a horse's shoulder, preventing them from leaning or 'diving' into turns.
• Refined Collection. The limited-travel gag action allows for subtle communication, helping finished horses stay round and engaged through their topline.
• Immediate Response. Designed for high-speed maneuvers, the mechanical design ensures your cues are felt instantly, which is critical for barrel racing and pole bending.
• Controlled Gag Action. Unlike standard gag bits, the limited travel cheek ensures the mouthpiece engages quickly without sliding too far, providing consistent pressure.
• Professional Grade Durability. As part of the Professional's Choice lineup, this bit is crafted to withstand the rigors of daily training and weekend competitions.

Best For

Barrel racers and pole benders looking for increased lift and collection on seasoned performance horses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How should I adjust the Professional's Choice Greeley Horse Bit on my headstall?

For the best results, adjust your headstall so the mouthpiece sits with exactly one wrinkle in the corner of the horse's mouth. This ensures the gag action is ready to engage correctly.

Q: Do I need a curb strap with this bit?

Yes, a curb strap is essential. It should be adjusted loosely enough to allow 2–3 fingers of space, allowing the gag action to engage before the curb pressure takes over.

Q: Is this bit suitable for a young horse?

Because of the high leverage provided by the long shanks, the Greeley bit is recommended for finished, seasoned horses rather than green or 'starter' horses.
