Goats and Bits
#2
A 3 1/2" bit! I used 6 1/2" bits for my Fjords. That bit must be teeny!

Your application of horse driving principles to goats is spot on! Like any other driving animal - I would think different goats would respond differently to a bit. I really enjoy reading your detailed analysis.

I think if a goat is going to have a bit in its mouth you would need an extremely light hand on the lines. If more pressure is applied I can see a goat rearing up trying to get away from the pressure. That wouldn't bode well for anyone.

Once again Cuzco proves he's still the greatest goat of all time!
