Loading... Please wait...Designed to communicate with the horse with basic training, learning the gaits, transitions and obedience.
- Features a curved mouthpiece for dispersed pressure and ease of swallowing.
- Uses tongue pressure and bar pressure- working mostly off the tongue. Myler bits distribute tongues pressure more evenly than traditional designs.
- Features the Myler "pinch and restrict with release"- the bit collapses on the sides of the bars and comes down into the tongue. When the horse relaxes in the poll, the pressure is released. The horse then learns to come into the "comfort zone".
- The bars of the Dee ring measure 3" long for the pony size, 3.5" long for the horse sizes.
-This Myler snaffle bit is dressage legal for competition.

Over the past 2 years I have switched all of my horses to Myler comfort mouth bits and I can not go back to a regular snaffle. All of the horses - from mature to unbroken have accepted these bits so well. There is a greater degree of communication and softer contact and the barrel joint allows you to move the cheek independantly which seams to help to encourange the horse. If you are looking for an alternative to the nutcrack, give a Myler a go.

We bought this bit in 4.5" for a welsh pony but found it too big (she is fine in the muzzle) so since we have so many horses tried it on a sensitive, soft mouth, fussy QH mare. She has been going lovely in it since. A happy, comfortable horse who hated the nut cracker of regular snaffles. I highly recommend this style of bit just find they run a bit big.
