I was just wondering if anyone uses a nathe snaffle? my instructor has recommended I try one in Wayne, but when Ive looked on the internet they seem quite hard to get hold of (and expensive, £80 for the ones Ive seen) He just isnt tolerating a metal bit anymore, his teeth and back have recently been checked, so I know its nothing to do with that. If anyone could recommend somewhere I could get one from, or how their horses go in one I'd really appreciate it!  |

I used a straight bar Nathe in Coral for a time - I quite liked it and so did she - I was at the age of lets put anything and everthing in tehir gubs.
They are highly recommened though./

My instructor reccomended the nathe as apposed to a happy mouth, although im not actually sure why.... for the sake of £20 i might just try a happy mouth and see how he goes in it before splashing out on a nathe, because they are so expensive and not so easy to get hold of! Thanks for everyones help!

I actually didn't realise that Nathe was a make until I looked it up for you! I think some people must use Nathe and Happymouth and Flexibit interchangeably! x
