The Myler System - Myler Bits
Myler Bits Myler mouthpieces correspond in construction and design to the Myler level, which in turn reflects the horse's behaviour and experience. The different mouthpieces are available from level 1. These have the strongest effect on the tongue. Level 3 mouthpieces have the least effect on the tongue and offer the most tongue freedom. Most horses can skip level 1 and there is every chance that your horse will start his training with the Myler system at level 2, 2-3 or even 3.
Turns on the tongue to work there. Folds, forms a "U" (not a "V") and thus protects the lips and bars from bruising. Is curved and thus creates more space for the tongue, protecting the lips and the recharge from bruising. ISM* for most mouthpieces. (independent side movement)
Provides tongue freedom with a small port (bulge) or a flexible mouthpiece. Rotates on the tongue for easy engagement. Folds to form a "U" (not a "V") to protect lips and shops from bruising. Is curved and thus creates more space for the tongue, protecting the lips and the recharge from bruising. SM* for most mouthpieces. (independent side movement)
Curved upwards and offers more tongue freedom than level 1 or 2. Correction mouthpieces exert some pressure on the tongue. Curb bits exert less pressure on the tongue. Acts more on the bars, poll and chin than level 1 or 2. Is curved and therefore creates more space for the tongue. Options with and without ISM*. (independent side movement)
Curbs with wider ports for maximum tongue freedom and little to no pressure on the tongue. Pressure is mainly exerted on the bars, the poll or the chin. Is curved and therefore creates more space for the tongue. Options with and without ISM*. (independent side movement)
