Re: [RC] White hair - girth buckle? - Becky Huffman

please reply to the list, I'm interested in this as well.  I also ride in a
dressage saddle and while I don't have white hairs coming in (yet), I have
noticed the pressure points behind the buckle in spite of the padding and
the elastic.  I've looked at different girths and haven't found anything
much under $300 that looks like it'd be any different.

Has anyone had a horse that developed white hair where the girth buckle
sits, and if so, what was the solution?  I want to keep this girth, it is
the only one that keeps a saddle from rolling around my barrel shaped
horse, but I don't like the white hair appearing.

BTW, I ride a Wintec Dressage Pro saddle, so the buckles sit pretty low
compared to most saddles - it is a waffle neoprene type saddle with full
elastic on both buckling sides.
Thanks,
Benedikte
