Dave Elliott is a co owner of Elliott Bit ‘n Spur. Custom bit and spur maker for the past 28 years, for the past few years I have been involved in offering education to horse owners on how and why bits work, or not. This involves bit mechanics and equine anatomy and as many aspects in getting the most out of your equipment and your horse. My educational seminars are NOT about selling you a bit they are about educating you about the bits you already own and how to shop for new bits that will help you in communicating with your horse.
