[RC] Girth galls and shaving hair - Sheila_Larsen

A potential reason for your girth galls is the way your horse walks.  My
mare has a really big stride at the walk and because of the way she is
built the girth slips forward behind her elbow.  The skin was getting
pinched/rubbed between her elbow and the girth.  Making the girth thicker
with a girth cover  or a  mohair made it worse.  I switched to a thinner
girth (wintec) and used the stuff (Glide?) to make it a little slippery.
Thanks,
Sheila
