We understand the importance of compliance; however, we always recommend consulting the most current rulebook of your specific organization for any updates or clarifications before competing.How does this bit provide tongue relief and comfort for my horse?This bit features the Myler MB 04 mouthpiece, characterized by its unique curved design and a subtle 1/4-inch low port. This combination is engineered to relieve direct pressure on the tongue, allowing your horse to swallow and relax more easily. The curved shape also prevents pinching of the lips and bars, making it exceptionally comfortable, especially for sensitive horses or those transitioning from more restrictive bits.What type of horse is this bit suitable for (Myler Level 2)?The Myler Med Baucher Low Port Comfort Snaffle is a Myler Level 2 bit. This means it's ideal for horses with basic training established, those that are consistently soft and responsive in a Level 1 bit, or horses that need more tongue relief than a Level 1 bit provides. It's excellent for promoting relaxation, salivation, and clear communication, making it suitable for a wide range of horses, from those in regular training to more experienced horses that benefit from greater tongue comfort.How does the Independent Side Movement and Baucher cheekpiece improve communication?The Myler Independent Side Movement™ allows you to apply rein aids to one side of the bit without directly affecting the other, enabling more precise, nuanced cues. This helps refine your aids and encourages your horse to respond more accurately. The Baucher (hanging cheek) cheekpiece is designed to suspend the bit stably in your horse's mouth, preventing it from shifting excessively. It also provides mild, non-leverage poll pressure when the reins are engaged, encouraging a gentle head position and enhancing the clarity of your commands.Could this bit still cause pinching or fit issues despite its design?While the Myler Med Baucher Low Port Comfort Snaffle is specifically engineered with a curved mouthpiece to minimize pinching, proper fit is always crucial. In rare instances, for horses with extremely fleshy lips or unique mouth conformations, any bit could potentially create pressure points if not fitted correctly. We recommend careful measurement and observation during initial use to ensure the bit sits perfectly in your horse's mouth, allowing its comfort-focused design to perform optimally.Product DetailsMouthpiece Size: 5 inchesProduct Item Number (SKU): 89-41045Choose the Myler Med Baucher Low Port Comfort Snaffle Bit today and transform your rides into a journey of connection and confidence.
