Overview

A functional twist on the classic baucher, the Myler Medium Baucher Comfort Snaffle MB 02 Bit is a great alternative to the traditional three-piece mouthpiece. This design utilizes poll pressure to increase the communication between you and your horse. When rein pressure is applied, the mouthpiece rotates fully against the tongue. This applies the necessary pressure to teach the horse to give to the bit or break at the poll. Curved bars prevent pinching during rotation while the curve is ergonomically shaped to allow more room for the horse's tongue. The barrel, similar in length and action to a traditional center link, distributes pressure more kindly and allows for Independent Side Movement™. 

The fixed attachment to the bridle provides more stability than a loose ring or eggbutt cheek piece, while also incorporating slight poll pressure to encourage a balanced response to rein pressure. Excellent stability means this bit is a good choice for horses that tolerate very little bit movement in their mouth.

Product Details

Ergonomic Design:

The unique curved bars of all Myler bits are ergonomically designed to accommodate the natural anatomy of the horse's mouth, wrapping the bars and lips instead of pinching as the mouthpiece rotates onto the tongue. This curved design also provides significantly more space for the horse's tongue underneath the bit, allowing the horse to comfortably swallow when the reins are not engaged.

The barrel in the center is the same width as the bars of the mouthpiece, and therefore applies the same amount of pressure on the tongue. This style of "wide barrel" distributes pressure more kindly than traditional bit centerpieces, and also creates the Independent Side Movement unique to Myler bits!

Independent Side Movement™:

The barrel at the center of the mouthpiece is not a roller, but rather a bushing that allows each side of the bit to move independently of the other. When the rider engages one rein on a traditional bit, the entire mouthpiece moves, creating a confusing signal for the horse. In comparison, when the rider engages one fixed rein using a Myler bit with ISM, the rider lifts only one side of the bit, giving a very clear, precise signal to the horse.

Myler Philosophy:

The creators of Myler Bits, Ron, Dale and Bob Myler, offer this philosophy behind each of their bits: The bit is a communication tool between the horse and rider, and in order to effectively communicate with the horse, the rider needs a bit which allows the horse to be relaxed. Keeping this in mind, the Myler Bitting System is based on the concept of tongue relief. Distributing tongue pressure more evenly than rival designs Myler's unique designs offer varying degrees of tongue relief for the horse depending on his level of training and his disposition. These degrees are identified by the "Level" noted for each bit.

Sizing

Please Note: A Myler bit will normally measure 1/8” larger than the stated size because the Myler's believe that the bit should have at least 1/8” to 1/4” of bit on either side of the mouth.
