Diamond Short Shank - Square Bar Lifesaver

Sherry Cervi’s Signature Collection bits have an excellent feel for quick pickup and release. Mouthpieces are stainless steel and available in many options and degrees of control. This is a bit for starting my barrel or training horses that have a sensitive mouth that do not need much bit, It is nice and soft, offering complete rate and body lift for turns.

“I see a lot of barrel racers who reach for the most severe bit in the trailer at the slightest resistance rather than following a natural progression. You should always start mild and work your way up only if needed. I recommend starting a colt or charging horse with mild bits to teach them to yield to pressure while building confi dence and establishing correct body position. That’s why I start with my smooth D-ring snaffle before anything else, and then move up to the Diamond Draw series.”-Sherry Cervi
