The Jerry Beagley Braiding Company Teardrop Snaffle Bit (Model #52508) delivers light leverage, balanced control, and signature Western style in one effective design. Built with a 5-inch snaffle mouthpiece and short teardrop-shaped shanks, this bit is ideal for transitioning young horses from a standard snaffle to leverage or maintaining softness and refinement in more seasoned mounts. It provides a clean, balanced feel in the rider’s hands—allowing for precise, responsive communication without being overly harsh.

Its mild snaffle action, paired with subtle leverage, makes it versatile enough for a wide range of disciplines while maintaining horse comfort and control.
