About this item
Highlights
- Stainless Steel Dee with Hooks: Experience superior durability and a stable, secure fit. The Dee ring provides consistent contact, offering clear and unambiguous signals to your horse, promoting confidence and responsiveness.
- Forward Tilt Ported Barrel (MB 36 Design): This revolutionary design provides significant tongue relief, encouraging your horse to relax, accept the bit, and swallow more freely. It cleverly reduces the "nutcracker" effect, distributing pressure gently and evenly across the bars and lips. Ideal for Level 2-3 horses, it promotes balanced control and ultimate comfort.
- Independent Side Movement (ISM): A hallmark of Myler bits, this feature allows each side of the mouthpiece to move independently. This translates to clearer, more precise signals for lateral flexion, bending, and lifting a shoulder, without confusing your horse or causing unnecessary pressure.
- Copper Inlay: Promote natural salivation and enhance bit acceptance. The subtle, sweet taste helps keep your horse's mouth moist and comfortable, encouraging relaxation and a softer response to the bit.

This design prevents the "nutcracker" action of traditional snaffles, distributing pressure more evenly across the bars and lips. It allows your horse to swallow more freely, promoting relaxation, acceptance, and a more supple response to your aids. The forward tilt also encourages the horse to stay on the bit and "give" rather than leaning, leading to more refined communication.What is Independent Side Movement (ISM) and why is it important?Independent Side Movement (ISM) is a core Myler innovation that allows each side of the bit's mouthpiece to move independently. This provides clearer, more precise signals for lateral flexion, bending, balancing, and lifting a shoulder. It prevents the entire bit from moving at once, which can confuse the horse or drive the center joint into the tongue, leading to more effective communication and a happier horse.What is the purpose of the copper inlay and stainless steel material in the bit?The copper inlay is designed to encourage natural salivation in your horse's mouth. Copper has a subtly sweet taste, which helps keep the mouth moist and comfortable. Increased salivation promotes relaxation, makes the bit more acceptable to the horse, and can lead to a softer, more responsive mouth and jaw. The stainless steel construction ensures superior durability and rust resistance, providing a long-lasting, sturdy bit with a neutral taste.How should I approach sizing for a Myler Dee Snaffle Bit?Myler bits are known to sometimes run slightly larger than other bit brands. It's often recommended by users to consider ordering a slightly smaller size than what your horse typically wears in other bits. This helps ensure a proper and comfortable fit, preventing the bit from being too wide and therefore less effective or potentially causing rubbing on the sides of the mouth.Which Myler Level is this bit suitable for?The Myler Dee Snaffle Bit with a forward-tilt ported barrel (MB 36) typically falls within the Myler Level 2-3 range. These levels are designed for horses that understand basic commands and are progressing in their training, or for those needing clear, direct signals. They offer significant tongue relief while still applying sufficient tongue pressure to encourage the horse to "give" and respond to the bit, guiding them towards higher levels of communication and comfort compared to Level 1 bits.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-22365Material: Stainless Steel with Copper InlayMouthpiece: Forward Tilt Ported Barrel (MB 36 Design)Invest in your horse's comfort and your partnership.
