Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Myler MB 36's forward-tilted port provide superior comfort?
The Myler MB 36 features a unique 1-inch, 45-degree forward-tilted port. This innovative design allows for comfortable tongue elevation and swallowing, preventing harsh pressure on the palate. When reins are engaged, pressure is primarily directed to the bars and lips, with a controlled, gentle amount of tongue pressure. This promotes relaxation and encourages the horse to soften into the bit, unlike traditional mullen bits that apply more direct, even pressure.
Which horses are best suited for the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle?
Categorized as a Myler Level 2-3 mouthpiece, the MB 36 is ideal for horses with a solid foundation in training and a good disposition. It's also highly beneficial for more advanced horses requiring refined communication, or those exhibiting resistance, anxiety, or aggression towards the bit. Its design encourages relaxation and acceptance, often reducing common issues like head tossing and tongue resistance.
Is the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle Bit legal for dressage competitions?
Yes, the Myler MB 36 Dee Snaffle Bit (without hooks on the Dee cheekpiece) is legal for USEF dressage competitions as of 1/2012 and FEI dressage competitions as of 7/2016. It's important to note that Dee cheekpieces with "hooks" for fixed rein positions, while offering enhanced lateral cues, may render the bit non-compliant for certain organizations or levels. Always consult the most current rulebooks for your specific discipline to ensure full compliance.
How does the copper inlay enhance communication and horse acceptance?
The copper inlay on the mouthpiece is strategically incorporated to encourage salivation in the horse's mouth. Increased salivation helps to soften the horse's mouth, making them more receptive and willing to accept the bit. Combined with the curved mouthpiece, which prevents pinching of the lips or bars, this leads to a more relaxed jaw, a softer feel in the rider's hand, and improved overall responsiveness and engagement from the horse.
What distinguishes the Myler MB 36 from traditional snaffle bits?
The primary distinction of the Myler MB 36 lies in its innovative forward-tilted port, which offers a significantly more comfortable and communicative experience for the horse compared to many traditional snaffle designs. While traditional snaffles often apply direct tongue pressure, the Myler design prioritizes tongue relief and proper pressure distribution. This, combined with the curved mouthpiece (preventing pinching) and copper inlay (promoting salivation), creates a unique bit that fosters exceptional acceptance and responsiveness.
