    Cada que veo videos como este en el otros paises replican los usos, costumbres, herrameinteas y demas cosas Mexicanas me llena de orgullo ser Mexicano. Me da mucho gusto ver a este muchacho flores que siga conservando los arreos, indumentaria Mexicanos asi como procurar seguir la manera de arriendar caballos a la Mexicana. Que gusto ver que Mexico sea apreciado por su rienda y manera de trabajar los caballos en otros paises. Muy bien Juanito Flores, aqui sigo viendo tus videos y como compartes tus conocimeintos de la rienda Mexicana.

    Nice video. Where would you suggest I go to purchase a well balanced spade bit?
    Thanks for your advice.

    any thoughts on ring bits?

      It depends. Chilean ring bits work very well as a using bit and signal bit, primarily because they have the option for 1:1 leverage, and 0.5:1 which would be negative leverage. Those are cool, I don't have any now but the mechanics work very nicely to create a feely horse.
      Mexican ring bits are a different story. They generally have a huge port and longer shanks, if the height of the port is equal or almost the same size as the bottom half of the shank, they are good. Also, they should not have a purchase, they should have rings that allow the bit too float. They work very well as signal bits but were generally reserved for hardened charro or spade horse as a correctional. Think of how a twisted wire snaffle is the softener for a smooth snaffle, at least how they are used....or a horsehair hackamore.
      Cavalry ring bits have too much leverage and should not be used on horses, maybe a particularly bad mule. They have 1:7 leverage, too much. I don't know much about Racehorse ring bits but I assume they aint much of a signal bit.

    I can get as subtle a response from my horses as I want using a rope halter and lead line converted to reins without the fear of pain.

      That's great! My spade bit horses can ride without a bridle or rope halter, completely bridleless. The spade is a refined piece of equipment for the highest level of training.
