So after a couple lessons it's been decided (by me and my instructor) that my girl is going to need a Pelham for her XC adventures in order to give me some extra breaks.
So I'm eyeballing a Myler Pelham on Ebay (as she goes so nicely in her Myler Comfort Snaffle in her flatwork... she'll even accept a contact in trot now, can you even believe!!) for £55.99 which seems too good to be true so I'm not sure whether to risk it HERE <---- does it look genuine
So firstly, if that doesn't look genuine (and I certainly don't want to shell out £115ish for a new one if it's literally just for one thing), what other mouthpiece might suit her if she loves the Myler?
And secondly, if it's for just XC, as a novice two rein rider would it be better to use roundings instead to prevent any rein confusion on the course, or should I spend the next week or so getting used to two reins?
And thirdly, would a Pelham be the only sort of bit that could help here? Or are there other options we could try?
Many thanks in advance for any help!
