Three Position Girth Plates
THREE POSITION GIRTH PLATES are installed by us on ANY Australian or Western saddle.
The advantage of such a plate is that it offers three different girth positions. By using just the forward slot the saddle is set back. By using the rear slot the saddle is moved forward.
The third position is reached by running the tackaberry lacing through both slots to form a V that then puts the girth in the same vertical position as the original cinch ring.
Making a V also renders the cinch pull over a longer lateral area, giving more stability to the saddle. We install them for $200.
