Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Myler Bitting System, and how do I know if Level 1 is right for my horse?

The Myler Bitting System is a progressive approach where horses "earn" more tongue relief as they advance. Level 1 bits, like this Western Dee Snaffle, are the mildest, offering foundational tongue relief. They are ideal for green or young horses, those new to Myler, or any horse in basic training needing a gentle introduction. If your horse is resistant or uncomfortable with a harsher bit, Level 1 is an excellent starting point to encourage acceptance.

How does this Myler bit ensure my horse's comfort and prevent pinching?

Myler bits are meticulously designed for equine comfort. This Western Dee Snaffle features a curved mouthpiece and a unique center barrel design that creates a "U" shape in the horse's mouth, rather than collapsing into a "V" like many traditional snaffles. This design significantly reduces direct pressure on the tongue and palate, preventing pinching and allowing for greater tongue relief, promoting relaxation and comfortable bit carriage.

What are the benefits of the Sweet Iron and Copper materials in this bit?

The combination of sweet iron and copper offers distinct advantages. Sweet iron naturally oxidizes when exposed to moisture, creating a subtle, appealing sweet taste that encourages salivation, a softer mouth, and increased sensitivity to aids. The integrated copper roller further stimulates interest and salivation, helping your horse stay relaxed, engaged, and receptive. The natural "rusting" of sweet iron is an intended feature and completely harmless.

What are the advantages of the Western Dee cheekpiece design?

The Western Dee cheekpiece offers clear communication and stability. Its D-ring shape provides a more stable feel compared to a loose ring, preventing the bit from easily sliding. The flat sides of the Dee ring rest against the horse's cheeks, aiding in clear turning signals and lateral flexion. This stability helps prevent the bit from pulling through, ensuring consistent pressure and predictable responses for a more controlled ride. Many Myler Dee bits also incorporate Independent Side Movement for refined cues.
