My belt buckle keeps unhooking not just when I am riding but walking as well. I have made several notches in my belt to see if that will help. Hasnt worked. Any advice to keeping those belt buckles hooked?

 Stop wearing them.

I quit riding while wearing a buckle after mine came loose running to the 3rd and I sat on the prong. Yeah.

Its not just when I ride it is when I am off the horse too. I worked hard for this one so I would like to wear it. Any advice appreciated.

See if you can get someone to bend the little prong a little. Look and see if it is pretty straight. Mine come undone if they are.The ones that are bent do not come undone as easily.

Put the belt on then put a calf ring (the rubber ring used to casterate calves) on the prong, this should secure it from falling out of the hole.

I don't suggest riding in a buckle either

How old is your belt? I had an older belt that the leather had gotten really soft and my buckle would come undone every so often.
