I've ridden Peds in a French link full cheek snaffle for the last three years. He went into this bit on the recommendation of an instructor I had at the time as I had steering problems in the school.
He is much better now though and steers a lot more through my leg than my hand now (practiced this the other day in the school by guiding him with no rein contact and he was great!)
So I think it might be time to ditch the full cheek, but what do I go for?
I'm thinking of keeping the same mouth piece as he seems to be happy in it, so I guess my options are loose ring, D ring, eggbut, or hanging cheek.
I'm not all that educated on bits so could really do with some help!
