That depends on the mule, but for me and a young mule like you mentioned I'd use a ring snaffle and I ride it a long long time then move them up to a short shanked curbless dogbone snaffle that most young stuff rides well in. A young mule graduates up and older mules you just try different ones and watch for what works best.
A lot of the mule guru's ride a Myler training bit. There is even a Max Harsha Mule bit available. Our old mule likes a chain bit pretty well and the mare mule I mostly ride likes a Workman bit, some folks swear by a Correction bit which is a ported mouth piece that swivels. The goal is to get one to ride because they know to not because their mouth hurts.
