Helps identify issues earlyIntroducing Bit Right Equine bit BUTTER The bit is one of the most sensitive points of contact between horse and rider. Each time we ride, the bit rests against delicate tissues — lips, tongue, bars, and corners of the mouth — all of which can be easily irritated by movement, dryness, or pressure. Using bit butter every ride helps protect these tissues and support comfort in several important ways: Reduces friction Bit butter creates a smooth barrier that minimises rubbing, helping prevent rubs, sores, and callusing at the corners of the mouth. Supports soft, hydrated tissue 100% Natural ingredients help keep the lips and mouth supple, especially important for horses ridden frequently or in dry, cold, hot or windy conditions. Vaseline (made from gasoline) traps moisture and weakens these delicate tissues. Encourages acceptance of the bit A comfortable mouth allows the horse to relax, soften, and respond more willingly to the rider’s aids — improving communication rather than resistance.

Helps identify issues early applying bit butter each ride encourages riders to check the corners of the mouth before every ride, making it easier to spot changes, sensitivity, or early signs of discomfort. Using bit butter isn’t about masking discomfort; it’s about preventing it. When combined with correct bit selection and fitting, it supports a calmer mouth, clearer communication, and a happier horse.
