In a I always used to tighten my girth or cinch as tight as I could
to keep the saddle from slipping I thought. I fought girth sores
constantly. I used $20 cinches and $100 cinches and nothing
worked. Then a junior started riding her last year and did cinch as
tight, and she never has gotten another sore. A one rat
study....mb
I'm not sure that being able to get a chincha or a girth tighter is an
advantage.
