The Myler MB 09 mouthpiece is engineered with your horse's comfort as its top priority. Its distinctive curved design helps prevent uncomfortable pinching of the lips and bars of the mouth, which is a common issue with traditional single-jointed bits. It also provides crucial tongue clearance and avoids the harsh "nutcracker" action, ensuring a more relaxed and comfortable experience for your horse. This design allows them to swallow freely and relax their jaw, leading to greater acceptance of the bit. Why does this bit encourage my horse to accept it and salivate? The Myler MB 09 features a "Sweet Iron" mouthpiece, often complemented with a copper inlay. This special material naturally oxidizes (lightly rusts) when exposed to moisture in your horse's mouth, creating a pleasant, sweet taste. This appealing flavor encourages increased salivation and promotes a softer, more accepting response to the bit, making communication smoother and significantly more effective. Which types of horses are best suited for the Myler MB 09 Level 1 bit? As a Myler Level 1 bit, the MB 09 is specifically designed for young, green horses who are just beginning their training under saddle. It's also an excellent choice for sensitive horses who require a gentler, more encouraging approach to bit work. This bit works by applying maximum tongue pressure, helping to teach the horse to confidently yield to the bit and fostering initial understanding and trust in their new experiences. How does this bit improve communication and my horse's responsiveness? The Myler MB 09 is meticulously designed to foster clear communication by promoting a relaxed and accepting mouth in your horse. When a horse is comfortable and accepting of the bit, it is more likely to focus, understand, and respond willingly to the rider's cues. This leads to improved performance, a stronger partnership, and a far more enjoyable and productive ride for both you and your horse. Is the Myler MB 09 Snaffle Bit legal for competition? Yes, the Myler MB 09 Snaffle Bit, particularly in its loose ring and D-ring versions, is widely recognized and legal for competition in various disciplines such as USEF Dressage, FEI Dressage, and USEA Eventing Dressage. However, riders are always advised to consult the most current rulebook for their specific discipline and governing body to ensure compliance before competing.
