    [RC] need saddle suggestions - TddWil


    I have always ridden in an english saddle until I couldn't find one in my price range to fit Shadow. I had used Wintecs on my previous horse with no problem. I picked up a new soft steel Patriot right before the original Ortho-Flex company went belly up for less than $700. Shadow loves it. I am beginning to hate it. I'm used to no pommel to speak of and I have gotten some really nasty bruises. This usually happens while jumping logs or ditches. I also really miss having knee rolls. I liked my all purpose saddle. Is there a treeless/flexible panel saddle out there that I would like? I'm not able to spend $2500 for a saddle, so this limits things. I have 3 arabs and 1 saddle has to fit them all. The Ortho-flex does. What about Torsion?
