[RC] Bits - Ashlee Wakeman

I started my horse with an eggbutt jointed snaffle. 
he did really well until i started to try to make him
give more to me for one-rein stops.  then, he started
opening his mouth really wide, yawing, and the bit
actually slipped through his mouth.  clearly, the bit
was the problem.  i assume that it was just too loose
and that i need to tighten his bridle, because i think
the bit is the right size.  this won't damage my
training so far, right? that's not enough to lose his
respect, i hope.
