Showman Argentine Shank with Correction Port Rings

The Argentine cheek offers a quick pickup, mild leverage, and an easy reset, keeping signals light, direct, and easy for the horse to understand. This cheek style provides enough leverage to shape rate and balance without overwhelming the horse, making it a versatile option for horses that ride best with a light hand and clear communication.

The mouthpiece features a traditional correction port paired with loose rings that encourage movement, moisture, and acceptance. The correction port promotes vertical lift while allowing each side to work independently, giving riders cleaner lateral cues and more refined positioning. The rings help keep the horse’s jaw soft and busy, reducing tension and helping maintain a relaxed mouth throughout the ride. This setup offers a firm yet fair feel, ideal for riders who want precision without excess intensity.
