Abstract:
1. A saddle girth comprising a midsection and two distal ends; the midsection having a forward edge and a rearward edge; the forward edge and rearward edge being curved, the distance between the forward edge and the rearward edge being the greatest at a midpoint of the midsection between the two distal ends and the distance between the forward edge and the rearward edge narrowing as the midsection approaches each of the two distal ends, the distal ends connected at an angle to a centerline of the saddle girth; an inside surface joined to an outside surface; at least one connector strap attached to each of the distal ends of the saddle girth, wherein the distal ends are angled from the centerline of the saddle girth at an angle between 5 degrees and 45 degrees and wherein the one connector strap attached to each of the distal ends extends from the centerline of the saddle girth in the same direction as the distal ends, wherein said distal ends and said at least one connector strap are pre-fabricated with said angle.
