There is an epidemic of these girths.
Chances are, if you have one of these types it’s because you care a lot about your horse’s comfort.
👉 DO THIS NOW: Run your fingers along the back of the girth, then the front of it. Feel how at the front there is a bit of a gap and at the back it is tight.
You can see it in this image (that i got from an advertisement of this girth)

When this happens it focuses all the pressure on the back edge of the girth. This is more focused pressure than with a straight girth.

🙏🏻 I realize there may be other considerations such as where the saddle/girth sits on your horse…
I simply recommend you are aware of the pressures this girth puts on your horse and that you take it into consideration when making your girth decisions.

Why only a few can balance the hoof?
As of today, thousands of studies have been published about balancing the hoof, and thousands of studies later, the consensus remains that only a few can balance a hoof properly. Why? It is not a matter of skill or knowledge. It is a matter of refusing to consider the whole picture. The hoof structures absorb forces. It creates forces due to its elasticity and tensegrity response to ground reaction forces, but the main forces acting on the hoof come down through the legs from the body. As long as balancing the hoof is not approached considering the two sets of forces, it will be thousands more sterile studies.
A recent study on the Multifidus hypothesized that the cross-sectional area of the Multifidus would be smaller on the side of the lame limb than on the contralateral side. The results contradicted the hypothesis. There was no significant difference between the Multifidus’ cross-sectional area of lame horses and non-lame horses. The only difference was related to the duration of the lameness. Muscles, tendons, aponeurosis, and fascia have adapted to the limb’s dysfunction and create a back dysfunction. Refusing to identify and correct the back dysfunction, which is the task of better riding and training, condemns the horse as a statistic that justifies the belief that limbs cause back problems.
When a farrier pretends that he can balance the whole horse’s physique from his anvil, the pretender is popular as it protects the rider’s ego. The horse compensates for the lie for a few years but loses his soundness and life over time. “The intelligence consists not only in the knowledge but also in the skill to apply the knowledge into practice.” (Aristotle) The practical application of new knowledge needs to be approached from the back down onto the hoof and from the hoof up to the back. The hoof structure adapts to the direction, duration, intensity, and frequency of the forces acting from the back down onto the hoof. These forces can be reduced and optimized from the back with the support of a well-balanced hoof. But the well-balanced hoof will be only a theory as long as the rider will not learn to coordinate the back muscles properly.
