Transform your horse's responsiveness and comfort with the Myler Eggbutt Snaffle, meticulously designed to eliminate resistance through superior tongue relief and clear, isolated communication. This innovative bit fosters a willing partnership by rewarding relaxation and salivation, making it the ultimate tool for riders seeking refined lateral control and a softer mouth.

Myler bits are world-renowned for their anatomical philosophy, and this Eggbutt Snaffle represents the pinnacle of that engineering. Crafted from high-quality, rust-resistant stainless steel with strategically placed copper inlays, the MB 36 mouthpiece features a forward-tilted ported barrel that provides significant tongue relief while distributing pressure evenly across the bars, ensuring your horse stays focused and comfortable throughout your training sessions.

Key Features & Specifications:

• MB 36 Level 2-3 Mouthpiece: Features a forward-tilt ported barrel that offers generous tongue relief and encourages the horse to swallow freely, reducing resistance.
• Integrated Hook Design: Provides versatile rein positions for either direct snaffle action or indirect leverage, allowing for customized communication and mild poll pressure.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Enables the rider to isolate one side of the bit independently, significantly improving lateral flexion, bending, and shoulder control.
• Copper Inlay Technology: Promotes natural salivation and a "sweet" taste, encouraging the horse to relax their jaw and accept the contact more readily.
• Stable Eggbutt Cheekpieces: Prevents pinching at the corners of the mouth while providing a consistent, stable feel that prevents the bit from sliding through the mouth.
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Built for exceptional longevity and easy maintenance, ensuring the bit remains rust-free and reliable for years of use.
• Precision Sizing Buffer: Specifically engineered to be 1/8” to 1/4” larger than the stated size to ensure the curved mouthpiece sits perfectly over the tongue without pinching the lips.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I determine the correct size for my horse?
A: Myler bits are intentionally designed to measure 1/8” to 1/4” larger than their stated size. This "buffer" is essential because the bit should protrude slightly from the horse's lips to allow the curved mouthpiece to sit correctly over the tongue and prevent the cheekpieces from pinching.

Q: Is this bit legal for use in the show ring?
A: While this bit is a premier choice for schooling and training across English and Western disciplines, the inclusion of hooks and the Independent Side Movement generally make it illegal for USEF, USDF, and FEI Dressage competitions. It is highly recommended for Hunter/Jumper schooling, Eventing training, and Western Pleasure riders seeking refined communication.

Q: What is the benefit of the "hooks" compared to a standard eggbutt?
A: The hooks offer enhanced stability and versatility. When reins are attached to the hooks, you gain the ability to use Independent Side Movement for better shoulder control and can apply mild poll pressure to help a horse that is heavy on the forehand, whereas a standard eggbutt offers only direct action.
