Why Choose the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle?This isn't just a bit; it's a tool for enhanced harmony and performance. The Myler MB 36 combines innovative design with premium materials to create an experience that is both effective for the rider and remarkably comfortable for the horse. Its ability to offer clear communication without harshness makes it a favorite for those aiming to refine their aids and foster a willing, responsive partner.Product Details Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat makes the Myler MB 36 Forward Tilted Port unique for communication and comfort?The Myler MB 36 mouthpiece features a distinctive solid, mullen-style port, typically 1" to 1.25" high and angled 45 degrees forward. This innovative design offers significant tongue relief when your horse is relaxed or on light contact, as the tongue passes comfortably underneath without palate pressure. When reins are engaged, the forward tilt rolls onto the tongue, applying direct tongue pressure along with bar and lip pressure. This avoids the harsh "nutcracker" effect, encouraging a lower head carriage, collection, and a clear stopping aid. It's particularly effective for horses that lean, poke their faces out, or need help with attention and softness.Is the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle truly legal for dressage competition?Yes, the Myler MB 36 mouthpiece itself is generally considered dressage legal. However, for full compliance under FEI and British Dressage rules, it is crucial that the Dee Snaffle cheekpiece is *without hooks* (slots for bridle and rein attachment that allow for slight leverage). A Dee Snaffle without hooks, combined with the MB 36 mouthpiece, is highly likely to be legal across various organizations like USEF and FEI. Riders must *always* consult the most current rulebook of their specific governing body to ensure compliance, as rules can change.Which horses are best suited for the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle, and what Myler Bitting System Level is it?The Myler MB 36 mouthpiece is classified as a Myler Level 2-3 bit. It is generally ideal for horses with a solid foundation in training and a good disposition, or more advanced horses needing refined communication. It's also beneficial for horses that exhibit resistance, anxiety, or aggression towards bits that apply more consistent tongue pressure. It provides increased tongue relief compared to Level 1 or Level 2 bits but still applies some tongue pressure for effective communication, primarily utilizing bar, poll, and chin pressure.What are the specific advantages of the Dee Snaffle cheekpiece design?The Dee ring cheekpiece provides excellent stability in your horse's mouth, preventing the bit from being pulled through. This fixed ring design offers consistent contact and precise lateral guidance, which is highly beneficial for clarity in aids. This can help encourage a softer, more responsive horse, making it a favorite for riders focused on refinement.How do the materials of the Myler MB 36 contribute to my horse's comfort
