The bigger or more severe bit will not help, as you have seen. You need to train your horse with beginning ground work basics. Only when you have mastered those tasks will you have laid the ground work to commnicate and control your horse's feet on the ground so you will be prepared to control him under saddle. Learning a one-rein stop is something every rider should know as well as an emergency dismount. Pulling on two reins only reinforces stronger pulling and usually faster speed from the horse. You can't win and you don't want to win by using pain, and force, and cruelty. You must know what you are doing to bring your horse to a one-rein stop. Achieving lateral flexion from the ground will teach your horse how to bend and when he does this well, it is impossible for him to be silly when he has his nose on the girth line. Quickly jerking at a fast gait, you run the risk of your horse going over on you. If your horse begins to go faster than what you asked for, shut him down immediately within the first two steps. Don't wait until there is so much momentum in his feet that it becomes more dangerous. And be in a round pen or smaller controlled area. If he tries to bolt, where's he going to go? Pretty quickly he will get it. Basic ground work taining is what he needs
so he can be a good horse for you. Don't take chances. Better to always be safe Remember, a snaffle bit is to be used only one rein at a time. If you pull both reins, it has the nutcracker effect on the horse's mount as the bars are crushed and the joint of the snaffle is stabbed into the soft palate. Not a good thing for the horse. Puts him on guard to try to protect himself from the pain. You have to make your hands better and improve the ability to use the reins. first and foremost though, gain the trust and respect of your horse and that must be from the ground first before it can be translated to under saddle. Be patient and take your time. Get some help if possible.
good luck.
