Mouthpiece

The BW Gag is a short-shank favorite for the horse that needs a little help getting picked up and staying together without a lot of bit.

The short 3 1/2" shank keeps the feel quick and manageable, while the gag action gives you a softer rate and enough lift to help bring the shoulders and body through the turn. It gives you support when you need it, then releases quickly when you soften your hand.

It’s versatile enough for young horses learning the ropes, but still handy on a seasoned horse that just needs a lighter reminder to stay balanced and responsive.

Best For
Young or seasoned barrel horses that need soft rate, moderate lift, and help staying balanced through the turn without a lot of leverage.

Feel
Soft, quick, and forgiving. The short shank keeps it manageable, while the gag gives you movement, lift, and a quick release.

Rider Note
A good choice when you need to pick one up and help them stay together, but don’t want a long shank or a big reaction. This one gives you enough without feeling like too much.

Build Info
3 1/2" shank with approximately 5.5" overall length. Gag action for added lift and release. Comes standard with a curb chain. Handmade in our Tennessee shop with stainless steel hardware and your choice of mouthpiece.
