Myler Bit Information and the Bits Julie Goodnight Recommends Most:

Here are the Myler bits Julie uses the most. Please keep in mind that every horse is different and that Myler's system is designed to help find the bitting options best for each horse and rider. The links below will direct you to Toklat's buy-it-now site for size 5" bits.

Myler 2-Ring Combination Bit MB 04, Size 5>>

Myler 3-Ring Combination Bit MB 04, Size 5>>

"This bit is for the green horse that lacks training or understanding of the rider's hands. Pressure from the rider's hands is distributed to more points of contact--from the horse's nose to the poll, chin and mouth. This makes it easier for the horse to understand and respond. There are multiple choices for rein placement and the amount of leverage. The mouthpiece is mild and allows moderate tongue relief."

Myler 3-Ring Combination Bit MB 41PB, Size 5>>

"This bit is for the horse that's difficult to control, volitle and fractious. This is a correctional mouthpiece that gives greater control and 'braking' ability. Multiple contact points give greater nose control."
