Half Moon Gag | Used

The Barry Half Moon Gag is designed to elevate the bit in the horse's mouth, encouraging them to lift their head. It’s particularly effective for strong horses that tend to lower their heads to evade the bit’s action and gain strength.

When pressure is applied to the reins, the bit rises in the mouth, applying pressure to the poll while also slightly rotating, which increases pressure on the tongue and bars. This combination of effects helps establish better control and responsiveness.

A favorite among polo players, this gag bit is ideal for enhancing communication and discipline on the field.
