The Myler Stainless Steel Dee Mullen Barrel Low Port bit has been designed for horses in basic training with a good disposition and self-control who can handle more tongue relief or those in advanced training with a challenging disposition whether it be anxious, aggressive or fearful.
Mouthpiece: MB 06 (small 1/4" port offers tongue relief does not rotate onto the tongue)
Ring type: D Ring without Hooks
Metal type: Stainless Steel with Copper Inlay
USDF Dressage Legal
Level 2-3 bits are ported to offer more tongue relief than level 1 or 2 bits. Instead, the level 2-3 uses more bar, poll and chin pressure than Level 1 or 2 with a curve to the mouthpiece that allows more room for the tongue to prevent resistance.
Resistance is the horse's way of communicating discomfort. A horse may demonstrate resistance through one or more behaviors that are consistently repeated in relation to the bit. Recognizing the signs of resistance is critical to knowing when there is a problem. Some of these signs include:
Going behind or above the bit
Chewing, overactive mouth, tongue out of the mouth
Running through the bit, pulling or not stopping
Heavy on the forehand, leaning on the bit
Putting the tongue over the bit
Sucking the tongue into the back of the throat
Myler bits have many unique features which allow your horse to work without resistance:
Independent side movement: Many Myler bits have a barrel in the center of the mouthpiece that acts as a bushing, allowing each side of the bit to move independently of the other. When the rider engages one fixed rein using a Myler bit with Independent Side Movement, the rider lifts only one side of the bit, giving a very clear, precise signal to the horse.
Curved Mouthpiece: Myler mouthpieces have a distinctive curve. The curve creates more room for the tongue to pass under the bit so the horse can swallow more freely as opposed to a bit that goes straight across the mouth.
Mouthpiece Thickness: In English bits, mouthpieces measure 14mm at the cheek and taper to 11.11mm inside the mouth. This provides a slightly larger surface area on the bars and lips, but still provides ample room for the tongue inside the mouth.
Mouthpiece Metals: All Myler mouthpieces with English style cheek pieces are made of stainless steel with copper inlay (with the exception of the loose ring which offers mouthpieces in both stainless steel and sweet iron).
Please Note: If you compete, check with your sport's governing body to confirm which bits are legal for your particular
