It applies direct tongue pressure to teach basic cues. If your horse is further along in their training and requires more tongue relief, you might consider a higher Myler Level bit (Level 2 or 3) that offers more nuanced communication.How does the mouthpiece design contribute to my horse's comfort and acceptance?The MB 03 Comfort Snaffle mouthpiece features a curved design that wraps around the horse's bars and lips, preventing pinching. It's made of sweet iron, which oxidizes to a sweet taste that encourages salivation, and includes a copper roller on the center barrel. This roller helps comfort restless or nervous horses, promoting a softer mouth and better acceptance of the bit by kindly distributing pressure across the tongue.What are the "hooks" on the Western Dee cheekpiece for, and do they add leverage?The "hooks" on the Western Dee cheekpiece are designed to fix the headstall and reins securely, preventing the bit from sliding and increasing stability. This design allows riders to easily switch between direct and indirect rein actions without needing to change bits, enhancing versatility. Importantly, these hooks do not add leverage to the bit. A Myler Leather Curb Kit is recommended for use with this bit to introduce curb pressure if desired.How does Independent Side Movement (ISM) benefit my horse's training and responsiveness?Myler's Independent Side Movement (ISM) is a core technology that allows each side of the mouthpiece to move independently. This feature enables riders to provide clearer and more precise cues to the horse, enhancing lateral flexion, shoulder control, and overall communication. The result is a more responsive, relaxed, and willing horse that understands and reacts to your signals with greater ease.How do I choose the correct size for my horse's mouth?Myler bits are designed for a specific fit. While they can sometimes run slightly larger than other brands, the general rule is to aim for 1/8" to 1/4" of bit on either side of the horse's mouth. Always measure your horse's mouth carefully or consult with an experienced equestrian professional to ensure the perfect fit for comfort and effectiveness.
