OK so last night I tried Santa_Claus's Fairfax girth and even though it was just a little w&t in the arena the change in D was instantly noticeable/feel-able.
So I thought....'in for a penny, in for a pound', reached for the savings a/c details and bought one myself! Yikes!!!!
but....I have bought a normal long girth (for a GP saddle)
so.....as it will be a while till I can afford the stud girth, would/have you been XC with studs in but without a stud girth?...
In my clueless days I have done this and not noticed any studding injuries, but that was then and this is now.......what is the norm?...I haven't been on the eventing circuit for a few years and so I'm a bit out of the loop
What would you do?...
Use the FF girth for better performance and risk potential stud injury?...
Use normal stud girth and have worse jumping technique/less comfortable horse?...
decisions decisions.....
