This makes it ideal for horses with a basic training foundation that are progressing to more advanced skills, or those showing resistance to Level 1 bits. It's designed to offer a balanced combination of tongue freedom and increased bar pressure for clearer, more refined communication, guiding your horse into a soft, consistent frame.How does the unique Mullen Barrel (MB 32) mouthpiece design ensure comfort and clear communication?The Myler MB 32 mouthpiece features a unique triple barrel mullen design, an advanced alternative to traditional mullen bits. Its flexible barrels allow your horse to elevate its tongue and swallow more easily when relaxed. When the reins are engaged, it becomes a solid, curved bar that distributes pressure evenly across the entire tongue, bars, and lips, avoiding the harsh "nutcracker" effect. Key to its comfort is Myler's Independent Side Movement (ISM), allowing each side of the bit to move independently for clearer, more precise signals without causing lateral pinching or discomfort.What are the advantages of the Sweet Iron material, and how does it promote salivation?The Sweet Iron material naturally oxidizes (rusts) when exposed to moisture, creating a pleasant, sweet taste. This intentional process encourages salivation in your horse's mouth, which promotes a softer, more relaxed jaw and enhances bit acceptance. The copper inlay also contributes to this beneficial effect, helping sensitive horses become more comfortable and responsive to the bit.What type of action and leverage does this Myler curb bit provide?As a mullen barrel curb bit with shanks, the Myler MB 32 provides leverage pressure. This action applies gentle pressure to several key areas: the bars of the mouth, the tongue, the chin groove (via a curb strap), and the poll (top of the head, through the headstall). The design emphasizes even pressure distribution for enhanced comfort, making it effective for improving shoulder control, encouraging collection, and achieving subtle, precise communication.How should I maintain the Sweet Iron bit, and is the 'rusting' normal?Yes, the visible oxidation or 'rust' on the Sweet Iron mouthpiece is completely normal and intentional.
