The Myler 03 Lynn McKenzie Bit is more than just tack; it's a tool for improved connection and performance.Frequently Asked QuestionsHow does the Myler 03 mouthpiece ensure comfort and clear communication?The Myler 03 is a Level 1 comfort snaffle, designed with a curved shape that rotates gently onto the tongue, distributing pressure evenly across the tongue, bars, and lips without pinching. This design, incorporating Independent Side Movement™, allows for clearer and more refined communication between the rider and horse by working each side independently.What are the benefits of the Sweet Iron and Copper Roller combination?The combination of a sweet iron mouthpiece and a copper roller is highly beneficial. The sweet iron naturally oxidizes (rusts), creating a sweet taste that horses generally enjoy, which, along with the copper roller, encourages salivation and a softer, more relaxed mouth. The roller can also help to soothe restless or nervous horses and deter them from leaning on or grabbing the bit.Is this bit suitable only for barrel racing?No, while part of the Lynn McKenzie Signature Series and specifically tailored for barrel racing, its design also makes it a versatile tool for general training, re-schooling, and everyday riding for a variety of Western horses. It's excellent for green horses or those transitioning to a Myler system.What kind of leverage does the 5" MMB Shank provide?The 5" MMB shank provides mild to moderate indirect (curb) leverage, meaning it applies pressure to the horse's mouth, chin (via a curb chain, sold separately), and poll. The shank's design often includes a "sliding action" that gives the horse an opportunity to respond to lighter signals before the mouthpiece fully engages, aiming for effective control while promoting a softer response when used with light hands.Which types of horses would benefit most from this bit?This bit is frequently chosen for young or green horses, those beginning foundational Western training, or more sensitive horses. Its comfortable design, which minimizes pinching and encourages relaxation, makes it a thoughtful option for horses learning to yield to the bit and respond softly to cues.Product Details Level: Myler Level 1 Product Item Number (SKU): 89-L52035 Manufacturer: Myler UPC: 635901356958Don't just ride, communicate!
