[RC] Girth Galls/dressage girth - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Skylaq slstewart@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

Something to consider, as it is an issue for my horse, is where
the buckles lay in relation to the elbow movement. I had a girth
that looked correct, but found that I needed a longer one. The
buckle area was interfering with "this" horse's elbow, he has a
high and deep bend. That area of the girth is quite stiff, and
so doesn't "move" with the horse. Went to a longer girth, where
the soft part was in "his" elbow (bend the elbow with the girth
on, so you know where it actually moves) and have had no issue's
since. :o)  Worth looking into.

Skyla (and Tempo, who just found out his saddle is too long for
his back...sigh...will be looking for a "banana" shaped panel,
18 inch English saddle now, would love a med Kurfurst endurance)
