Bit Test Ride Program

Is there a bit you would like to try for your horse but are worried it's not the right one and you will be out the cost of the bit? The Paddock Saddlery Test Ride Program takes the hesitation out of buying a bit for your horse.

Purchase any bit with the Test Ride Program logo on it and try it for up to (14) days with the ability to return it with minimal cost to you. If the bit works for you, simply keep it and you will not be charged the Test Ride Fee. If you wish to return the bit, contact The Paddock Saddlery within (7-14) business days and get an RMA (return authorization) number. Then simply return the bit. When The Paddock Saddlery receives the bit back, we will refund you the purchase price of the bit, less a $14.95 test ride fee.

Returned Bits are cleaned, thoroughly disinfected and returned to the Bit Test Ride Program. If a bit is returned with excessive wear and tear, a restocking fee up to 50% of the purchase price will be charged at the discretion of The Paddock Saddlery. Please use the bit gently and clean it before returning if it is not the right bit for you. This will ensure you are eligible for the full refund of the purchase price, minus the cost of the Test Ride fee.

- Any bit kept longer than (14) days is considered a final sale and is no longer eligible for return.

- Any bit returned without packaging and tags may be subject to a 20% restocking fee.

- Because of the difficulty of sanitation and risk of damage, rubber, plastic and leather mouthpiece bits are not eligible for The Paddock Saddlery Bit Test Ride Program. 

Please note - If you are certain of the bit that you would like to purchase, and would like to order a bit that has never been out on the test ride program... please call us at 800-321-2142 and we will be happy to special order the bit for you (special order bits are non-returnable).
