With the reining cow horse discipline one of the fastest growing facets of the horse industry, Capron created this bit to fit a horse and rider in that arena. He chose the Santa Barbara-style bit because it is fun to make, he said, and it presents a canvas with endless possibilities for decorating. This bit features sterling silver inlays and 24k gold flower centers.
