	The Girth, Strap, Cow, Lanyard Hitch, or Lark's Head
		Structure: The Girth Hitch is much more familiar than many of us recognize: it is the same knot we use to link a pair of elastic bands.
		Uses: The Girth Hitch attaches a sling or a webbing strap loop to your harness or to another sling, strap, or rope.
		It is also often employed when slings are used to connect anchor points to a static rope in a top-rope set-up.

	Girth Hitch

		Toss in a spectra/nylon runner combination and you're potentially working with a setup that will fail at 10kN or less.
		Otherwise, a girth hitch should be just fine if the girthed runners are strong enough.

	Rock Climbing Forums: Climbing Information: General: Girth hitching a Cam??
		The other issue with girth slinging onto a cam will be that you may still see a high transfer of movement from the rope to the cam.
		A girth hitched sewn sling is about as strong as a knotted sling of the same material.
		If you girth hitch the cam instead of the sling, I would think it would be stonger due to the force being nylon on aluminum instead of nylon on nylon.

		Girth galls can develop when a horse has particularly soft skin or can develop due to a dirty or hard girth being used or the girth has been placed on a dirty horse.
		Girth Galls should be treated as a minor wound and once healed the skin can be hardened by dissolving 2 heaped teaspoonfuls of salt in a pint of warm water and applying this to the skin.

	Jessica Jahiel's HORSE-SENSE: Dressage girth questions
		Warning: this is a useful formula IF your long girth fits well - that is, from the middle holes of the saddle billets on one side of the horse to the middle holes of the billets on the other side.
		If your long girth was just barely long enough to fasten to the last holes in the billets, it was clearly too short, so instead of subtracting 20" from 52", you'll want to measure for a well-fitting long girth, and then subtract 20" from THAT measurement, whether it is 54" or 56" or longer.
		The idea behind long billets and short girths is that the rider will be more comfortable and achieve closer contact with the horse, because if there is no girth under the saddle flaps, there won't be any "lump" of buckle and strap underneath the rider's leg.

	Equusite.com - Don't Squeeze the Best Out of Your Horse! A study linking girth tightness with performance.
		The effects of a tight girth on the performance of the horse has not previously been studied but some horse trainers have suggested that a very tight girth reduces the performance of horses.
		The current study found that the run-to-fatigue times and distances were reduced with increased tension of the girth suggesting that overtightening the girth does cause a reduction in the performance of the horse.
		The reason that overtightening of the girth causes poor performance is not yet known and there was some variability in the susceptibility of horses to overtightening of the girth and although most horses were affected to some degree, one horse was not affected.
