Re: [RC] Myler combo bits - diane vieira

I use a Myler combo bit with my gelding and couldn't be happier. Mine has a triple barrel mullen bit, which is curved and fits nicely in my horse's mouth. It has a little "play" which he likes and I can ride with lighter contact when he's behaving, so it's like a hackamore but lets me get his attention and get him to drop at the poll when I need him to listen up.

The best thing to do is contact the folks at Toklat, they distribute the Myler bits. I had bought the bitting book, too, but still had questions. I got a very prompt reply from Barbara Garrison, email address is barbara@xxxxxxxxxxx She sent a little questionnaire about my horses habits and what I was having problems with as well as his training level and my riding skills. She wrote back with several suggestions and she was right on! Great to get that input before putting out the big bucks unless you find a place that will give you a trial period, I didn't have one in my area.

Good luck, if you get the right one, you and your horse will be really happy!

Diane Vieira
