Calling all Heavy Horse / Draft owners

[bliss]

Hi
I need some help in finding out the girth of these heavyweights. And I dont know any heafties personally

I've just started selling treeless saddles and someone wants to do a trial with there pure shire after Xmas, but I dont think I have a dressage girth big enough 32''

If you ride in a dressage / treeless what size girth do you use?
How big is you horses girth?

Thankyou to all and merry Xmas

Flynn is a Irish draft and takes a 32 dressage girth if that helps you.. he was in a what I thought was a 52 inch GP girth which fitted my TB deep girthed hurdler bred. But I since found out it is 54 buckle to buckle but it was still 32 dressage.

I used that when I borrowed a treeless to trial.
Hope that helps.

barney when fit fits a 54 inch girth i just use a normal smaller girth with my treeless,
i had a wintec that had gell behind the buckles, ive now got a liddl girth made from strong elstaic covered with neoprene,

I had to get a dressage girth made-to-measure for TC when we trialled a treeless, he needed 43" (although would be smaller now as he has lost lots of weight!!)

jill we have girths made for us as jupiter took a whopping 70 inch girth they aren,t that much more expensive that normal girths to be made for us

Guinness is heavy but he is only 14.2 he has a treeless saddle and I think his girth is 28"

When my 17hh Irish Draught was in a treeless saddle, the girth we used was 34".
