A classic combination that never gets old. 🤎
Our Short Ballhinge© shanks paired with the Correction© mouthpiece, finished in brown with stainless dots for that timeless Tom Balding look.
At 6 3/4" overall, the Short Ballhinge offers a great option for riders looking for a shorter shank, while the sweet iron Correction© mouthpiece features copper inlay.
The best part? You don’t have to choose this exact combination. Mix and match our shanks, mouthpieces, finishes, and details to build a bit that works for you and your horse.
Handcrafted one at a time in Sheridan, Wyoming.
Baseline or Advantage ~ which one are you reaching for? 👀
Our Advantage shanks have quickly become a customer favorite! They offer a little more weight than our classic Baseline shanks, giving riders a different feel while keeping the quality and craftsmanship you expect from Tom Balding.
The Baseline continues to be a tried-and-true favorite, while the Advantage has been gaining plenty of fans of its own.
Two great options. Two different feels. Which do you prefer?
