At the heart of this bit is its innovative Sweet Iron mouthpiece. As your horse works, this unique material naturally oxidizes, creating a subtle, appealing sweet taste. This encourages significantly increased salivation, which in turn relaxes your horse's jaw and promotes a wonderfully soft, supple mouth. Bid farewell to a dry mouth and welcome a horse that genuinely accepts the bit and responds with fluidity.The MB 09 design provides crucial tongue relief, allowing your horse to swallow freely and relax, fostering superior communication. Coupled with the loose ring action, you gain exceptional precision, enabling better isolation of aids for enhanced directional control and refined turns.Key Features & Benefits: Frequently Asked QuestionsHow does the Sweet Iron material benefit my horse?Sweet Iron is a special material that naturally oxidizes when exposed to moisture and saliva. This oxidation process produces a mild, sweet taste that horses find highly palatable. This encourages increased salivation, which acts as a natural lubricant, promoting a softer, more relaxed, and responsive mouth. The resulting brown-gray rust layer is completely harmless and is a desired effect, indicating the bit is working as intended.What makes the Myler MB 09 mouthpiece design so comfortable for my horse?The Myler MB 09 mouthpiece features a distinctive curve, expertly engineered to provide crucial tongue clearance and prevent common discomforts. Unlike standard snaffles that can create a "nutcracker" effect or pinch the tongue and bars, the MB 09 aims to sit more comfortably in the horse's mouth, allowing them to swallow freely and relax, which is essential for improved comfort and better communication.Is the Myler MB 09 suitable for all horses, especially young or sensitive ones, and what does the Loose Ring action do?As a Myler Level 1 bit, the MB 09 is an excellent choice for green, young, or sensitive horses, as well as those new to bit training, teaching them to confidently yield to tongue pressure with a gentle touch. The loose ring design allows the mouthpiece to move independently of the cheeks. This discourages the horse from leaning on or locking onto the bit, promoting a relaxed jaw and poll, and facilitating more precise, independent rein aids.Is this bit durable and legal for competition?While the mouthpiece is made with sweet iron to encourage salivation, other components of the Myler MB 09 are typically constructed from premium stainless steel, ensuring exceptional durability and longevity. Additionally, many Myler MB 09 snaffle configurations are approved for use in various competitive disciplines, including USEF Dressage, offering peace of mind for competitive riders that it meets required standards.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-28085IReady to elevate your riding experience?
