Because Myler bits are built 1\/8\" wider than labeled (e.g., a 5\" bit measures 5 1\/8\"), you should always round up to the next size if your horse's measurement falls between standard sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this bit legal for use in the show ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, the Myler MB 04 Dee Snaffle (without hooks) is a staple for Hunter and Jumper classes and is fully compliant with USEF and FEI Dressage regulations, making it a versatile choice for multi-discipline competitors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why is \"Sweet Iron\" used in the mouthpiece?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Sweet iron is intended to rust over time, which creates a sweet taste that horses find highly palatable. This encourages the horse to \"mouth\" the bit and salivate, leading to a softer, more responsive mouth and better communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89-43048\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42250706976989,"sku":"89-43048","price":159.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized_3629761d-21db-421f-bff4-0f14149064fe.webp?v=1767069982","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/myler-mb-04-dee-snaffle-bit-6-inch-mouth-level-2-low-port","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
