| Has anyone here tried "The Y-Cinch" from 5 Star? If so, how do you like it? I always ride with a rear cinch, and I always have it snug. This looks it would (possibly) be a more comfortable option. Pros/cons? Thanks |

Location: In the Hills of Texas | I used the Y-cinch many years ago, that I think was made by Adams. I got it from Josey's. Loved it and used it until I bought a new horse and that cinch wasn't made anymore.
5 Star is a first class company and I wouldn't hesitate ordering one from them. I buy all my 5Star products through RockyRoad. Great prices along with customer service.

Location: Tulsa, Ok | I really like y-girths. Used them until they were no longer available. I think I have some old ones hanging around my barn, but they are way past their prime! I went to the 5 Star site and searched for their version, but was unable to find anything. |

Location: Georgia | I have the 5 star Y "cutter" and I really like it! Love how it keeps the back of the saddle snug! |

Thank you. These are different than the ygirths of old which were nylon and fleece. I kinda like the looks of these and will consider trying one when I need to replace my current girths. |

| This is all I use, and I can still get new ones from a local tack store that sells the Adams brand ones. Run about $75-$80 new. |

Location: Southeast Louisiana | I have one. It's really good quality. I use it on the saddle I practice with. I really like it for the back girth position. But, it doesn't take the roll out of my saddle like the Len Brown Never Tight. That's my favorite and the one I compete in. |
