I went to one of the big horse expos.The Mylers were there demoing their bits.Mr.Myler is quite a jerk.He decided not to show up for one of the demos,leaving people waiting in the stands.He decided not to tell them he wasn't going.For the other demo,I was selected to help.I had been interested in a comfort snaffle.He used my arm to show how comfortable the bits were.At the end of the demo,my arm was black and blue with pinched torn skin.I did not use a Myler on my fjord after that. Ellen Ellen, I am really sorry to hear that. I do and have used a Myler for my miniature horse for years. They are the "Only" company that will make a custom bit for miniature horses in the correct mouth piece width. I know what my horses need, and most of the time it is impossible to find what I want. All other bits, what there are of them for miniature horses, were much to thick and uncomfortable. She is in a ported comfort snaffle, but this one has a lot less movement in the middle,does not collapse on the tongue. There is no pinch at all with it, believe me, she would let me know clearly! We are lucky there are so many other brands of bits out there for the Big horses. My Fjord mare will end up being ridden in my 5 1/2"Butterfly or Liverpool driving bits. I have a uexter Kimberwick but it is too small at 5". Like any bit, it is only as gentle as the hands that use it. Shari
