The Professional's Choice Laramie Shank Bit with Solid Spoon is part of the exclusive Laramie Collection and is designed for riders working at a higher level who seek precise, balanced, and effective communication with their horse. This bit combines classic western design with advanced features.
The bit is equipped with a 6½" swept-back shank, providing an ideal balance between signal delay and leverage. The slightly curved shape allows the horse time to respond to cues while still offering sufficient influence for precise adjustments.
The " mullen-style bars ensure even and consistent contact in the horses mouth. This creates a more stable feel and makes it easier for the rider to work with refined signals, while distributing pressure comfortably.
The bit features a 1¾" correction port (solid spoon), adding an extra level of precision, while the integrated ball-joint construction reduces the risk of pinching and enhances comfort by allowing more room for the tongue. This makes the bit more comfortable for the horse.
This bit is the ideal choice for riders seeking a combination of precision and comfortperfect for advanced training and competition, where small details make a big difference.
The story of Professional's Choice started back in 1976 when founder Dal Scott broke his leg in a riding accident. Hoping to recover faster, he developed neoprene orthopaedic products. This was the start of Dricast Orthopedics, Inc - what we know today as Professional's Choice. Dal had a passion for horses, so naturally, it wasn't long before the focus shifted from people to equine equipment. The development and production of therapeutic products for horses began in 1986, when the brand was renamed Professional's Choice Sports Medicine Products, Inc.
After the brand was renamed Professional's Choice, the research and development team began working on what is now known as the original Sports Medicine Boot. Since the popular Professional's Choice gaiters made their debut in 1990, the development of equine leg protection has continued apace - the latest being the groundbreaking 2XCool gaiters with cooling effect. However, Professional's Choice does more than just make gaiters for horses; for example, Professional's Choice fly masks have also become very popular with their great fit and beautiful patterns.
