Myler Bits Parelli Cradle C3

The Myler Bits Parelli Cradle C3 bit has enough of a port to give tongue relief and encourage the horse forward. It is a hybrid of ring bit, shank bit and hackamore. A purchase ring with specially designed connectors for the noseband and chin strap sits atop a large center ring where the mouthpiece is attached. Unlike the other Myler combination bits, the rein attachment is built into the ring where the mouthpiece is attached. The mouthpiece is the MB04 with a 1" slide before it reaches a stop.

The noseband is flat braided nylon cord and the chin strap is knotted which closely simulates the knotted rope halters commonly used in the Parelli program and other Natural Horsemanship programs. This provides a smooth transition from halter work to bit work. The cradle bit has the Independent Swivel Cheek.

Used in English or Western disciplines with an indirect action.

Working together since September 2006, Parelli USA and Myler Bits have designed a new Parelli Myler series of bits to compliment the Parelli Natural horsemanship program.

If you have a Left Brain horse, you will need the maximum tongue release of the C3. The Left Brain Introvert is not a very forward-going horse and tends to feel trapped when the bit applies pressure to their tongue. As soon as you give them tongue release, they feel more free to go forward, they are less inclined to overflex, and their mouths are much more comfortable and quiet

When the Left Brain Extrovert feels tongue pressure they will tend to pull it back or hold their mouth open to avoid it.
The Myler MB33 mouthpiece is the mildest in terms of tongue pressure. The generously wide port allows room for the tongue to pass under the bit so the horse can swallow easily. This mouthpiece works primarily off the bars, lips, chin and poll. There is little to no palate pressure.
