April, I went with this exact set up with the
mohair girth a few months ago and I love it. I don't compete but I trail
ride ALOT. I have had no problems whatsoever. Good luck, Jen and
Banjo
Right now I use center-fire rigging with long billet
straps that start at the back loop, go through the girth, up to the front
loop, back to the girth and then to the front loop to tie off. This does ok,
but I'm thinking that it'd be easier to control the placement of the girth
with the quick cinch set up, easier to adjust on the trail and as an added
benefit, get rid of the tie bulk under my leg.
I'm concerned about the
longevity of the girths, though. I'm worried that the girth will split apart
where one buckle gets buckled to the back ring and the other buckle gets
buckled to the front ring.
I'd appreciate comments, good and bad,
private or public, regarding this set up. I prefer neoprene due to it's quick
clean-up at vet checks, but I'm using mohair girths right now, so would
appreciate comments on both options.
