Total Saddle Fit Shoulder Relief Cinch with Balance Buckle – Neoprene

The Shoulder Relief Cinch + with the patent-pending Balance Buckle actually changes the position and angle of the latigos to prevent the saddle tree from interfering with the shoulder. The center of the cinch is set forward to sit in the horses natural girth groove heart girth. While the sides of the cinch are cut back to meet the latigos 2 inches behind where the horses natural girth groove lies. This brings the latigos from angling forward to becoming perpendicular to the ground in the case of a forward girth groove horse which reduces the saddles tendency to be pulled forward into the shoulders. With horses that have shoulder interference without angled billets it simply moves the billets back to keep the saddle farther away from the shoulders. The secondary benefit to this shape is that it is cutback at the elbows. This gives more room for elbow movement as well and prevents galls in the elbow area.
