I like to take my bridge off while wearing my saddle walking in so I have a caribeener on both ends. I use a Poachers knot tied to one and the other side has the Distel friction hitch attached to a caribeener. You could use a figure 8 and girth hitch it to the one side and eliminate the extra caribeener Or just tie the figure 8 to the saddle bridge loop if you won’t be taking it off.
