| I'll be buying two to try out on T when he gets working again, I've heard very positive things about them, Unless i considered that they were great bits, i wouldnt even consider trying one because T dislikes metal mouthpieces |

I got one for stan when I first got him and was trying out bits. I have a huge collection now! He thought the neue schule was great because he could do whatever he wanted haha! I passed it on to Bicky and she probably found it just as useful as I did with her strong cob!
I really like the idea of it and would have loved to continue with it. I'm glad that Goldie is better in it. Stan just doesn't go with jointed bits at all. |

| yes, i use a trans-angled hanging cheek. W hates metal bits and has a great big tongue, so the lozenge and the 14mm bit is the best I could find. Hes not great in it, but its better than all the rest we tried out. Expensive, but worth it. |

Cannot recommend them enough. I have to use them with my horse as he is super sensitive and has a big tongue - he won't settle in anything else.
But what impressed me more is when I treated Mr P's horse to a Neue Schule - we did not have a problem with him as he was working 'fine' in a sweet iron, but the improvement in him has been very noticeable he does not just work 'fine' (dressage scores 64-65%) anymore, he now works 'superfine' as one of our instructors described it (dressage scores 70-75%)!! As you said - softer, rounder and more relaxed through the jaw, poll and neck. |

Absolutely fantastic, cant praise them enough. Expensive yes, but there are more expensive ones out there and in my opinion not as good quality.
Took me years of buying and trying various bits and although my lad was ok, I knew he wasnt ultimately happy with what I was putting in his mouth. I found the NS website by accident, located a stockist, tried the bit they recommended and didnt look back. It's the one piece of tack I would never ever change again. I have the hanging cheek training lozenge snaffle. |
