Centre Bitting Days
I often struggle to fit everyone in that contacts me so I am devising another type of day so that you can travel to a venue with good parking and good safe arenas to bring your Horse or Pony to see me
So I can still chat to you and actually see your horses, get to know you to try to pick out the most suitable bit to help or to improve or to move you on
Centre Bitting Days are suitable for anyone wishing to learn more about Bits and Bitting and who would like individual advice for their own Horses and cannot for what ever reason organise a Bitting Day on their own yard.
We will look at each Horse in turn, looking at individual conformation, discuss your Horse or Ponys training and bitting history and then ride it in the bit it is normally in and then change bits maybe once or twice to see if we can achieve enough difference to merit a change of bit.
I charge £75 per Horse [£65 is my usual fee and £10 for the hire of the arena] and it takes between approx an hour per Horse to do for a snaffle Horse and longer if we are doing Double Bits
With each Horse we will discuss
Brands Carried
In order to assure that we have enough variety to bit a broad spectrum of Horses and Ponies we have always carried a variety of brands
I only made my own bits because I could not find all the mouthpieces and all the cheeks that I needed to do a good job
But we also carry
Bomber Bits
Happy Mouth Bits
Rotary Bits
Myler Bits
and my own
Informed Designs
Bridle Work and Saddle Checks
We have always for years automatically in the course of a consultation checked Bridle work [bridle fit, head pressure points and noseband tension] and Saddle [discussing saddle fit and balance] Girth fit and suitability and give recommendations for all if needed
If you think you might have a suitable venue Why not try to organise your own Centre Bitting Day ?
Charges
I charge £65 per Horse [plus £10 for the arena] and it takes approx an hour per horse and then the bit we agree upon stays on your bridle just as we fitted it together
The bits range from £65 to £85 for Snaffles and £90 to £100 for Weymouths and Jumping Training bits so the average spend is approx £155
I do need to be paid on the day for everything please
I can take Cash, or Cards that should be sufficient for all to have a payment choice
House keeping and general considerations Please be on time you dont have to be worked in I prefer to see you work in
Please tidy up after your selves we are so lucky to be at these venues
To discuss anything or book yourself into a day that has been advertised please e mail: charlotteinformedbitting@gmail.com
