Bridle bit

A bridle bit for horses comprises a mouthpiece to be received in the mouth of a horse. A head stall ring member is rotatably mounted through the outward ends of the mouthpiece member has a portion extending through the mouthpiece outward ends secured to a cylindrical cheek piece member which rotates therewith. The cheek piece members extend forwardly from the outward ends of the mouthpiece member and reside closely adjacent the cheek of the horse and a rein ring member is rotatably mounted on each cheek piece member extending forwardly therefrom and the forward end is adapted to receive rein apparatus. The head stall ring member may also have a slot adapted to receive a curb chain. The mouthpiece members move independently of one another, the head stall and cheek piece members rotate about their longitudinal axis as a unit relative to the mouthpiece members, and the rein ring members rotate about their longitudinal axis relative to the mouthpiece members and the cheek piece members. The fully rotatable shank may be used with any suitable mouthpiece, including mouthpieces of a fixed construction and two and three part snaffle mouthpieces.
