Myler 32 Western Dee Bit with Hooks - 5 Inch Sweet Iron Mullen Barrel MB 32, Copper Inlay, Level 2

Elevate your horse's performance by replacing resistance with relaxation through the innovative engineering of the Myler 32 Western Dee Bit. Designed for horses transitioning into advanced training, this bit provides the precise communication and anatomical comfort needed to foster a soft, responsive mouth and a harmonious connection.

Crafted with a sophisticated focus on equine biomechanics, the Myler Level 2 design bridges the gap between basic cues and refined performance. By utilizing a Sweet Iron mouthpiece that naturally encourages salivation and a stable Western Dee cheekpiece, this bit ensures your horse remains focused and comfortable, whether you are navigating a reining pattern or enjoying a long day on the trail.

Key Features & Specifications:

• MB 32 Mullen Barrel Design: Features a triple-barrel mouthpiece that remains flexible when relaxed for easy swallowing but forms a solid, curved bar when engaged to distribute pressure evenly across the tongue and bars.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Myler’s patented internal bushings allow each side of the bit to move independently, enabling you to lift a single shoulder or provide nuanced lateral cues without affecting the opposite side of the mouth.
• Sweet Iron & Copper Inlay: The 5-inch mouthpiece is constructed from naturally oxidizing sweet iron to create a pleasant taste that promotes salivation, encouraging a softer mouth and better bit acceptance.
• Western Dee with Hooks: The fixed Dee ring provides exceptional stability within the mouth, while the integrated hooks offer versatile rein placement for direct or indirect action without the need to change bits.
• Level 2 Transitional Design: Specifically engineered for horses with a solid foundation who are moving away from Level 1 snaffles or for sensitive horses that require more tongue relief than a traditional jointed bit.
• Anatomical Curved Mouthpiece: The ergonomic curve eliminates the painful "nutcracker" effect, protecting the bars from pinching and providing the horse with more room to swallow comfortably.
• Durable Stainless Steel Cheeks: The high-quality stainless steel cheekpieces are rust-resistant and built to withstand the rigors of daily training and professional competition.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the correct fit for my horse with this 5-inch bit?
A: Myler bits are engineered with an "extra room" rule; this 5-inch bit actually measures approximately 1/8" to 1/4" larger than advertised. For a proper fit, you should see 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side of the horse's lips to ensure the curved "elbows" do not pinch the cheeks.

Q: Is the Myler 32 suitable for a horse that is sensitive or "behind the bit"?
A: Yes, this is an excellent choice for sensitive horses. The Mullen Barrel design provides a very stable and forgiving feel compared to a traditional jointed snaffle, which helps build confidence in horses that are prone to backing off the bit or those that need a clearer, more consistent signal.
