I appreciate your input, the non jointed Kimberwick I use does not cause any
other problem with him, he takes it just fine, doesn't throw his head any other
time except when I mentioned, and when I disconnect the bit from the halter
bridal he still holds the bit in his mouth and I have to tug on it for him to
release it.  Go figure that one.
