Myler Bits USA and Parelli Natural Horsemanship have partnered to design a new series of bits. The Myler brothers have developed a reputation for their commitment to creating the most comfortable and effective bits in the industry. Parelli is one of the top practitioners and proponents of Natural Horsemanship. The Parelli/Myler Cradle Bridle is creating a revolution.

The testimonials are impressive. Horses who are habitually nervous, head tossing and avoiding the bit, become calm and accepting. In some cases, the difference is noticeable from the moment the bridle is put on.
