    Re: [RC] English saddles - DESERTRYDR1


    I love my English saddles, but I prefer either the Wintecs with a sueded seat 
    or if its smooth leather, I like a fleece seat saver.  Otherwise I feel like 
    I slide around.  I'm a decent rider, and started riding bareback way before I 
    got to the 'decent" stage due to saddle fit problems.  Then the only saddle I 
    could get to fit my horse was english.  I have always felt secure in them, to 
    the point that I have started two babies in them.  Most western saddles that 
    I have ridden in have NOT been comfortable.  The jockey pinches or rubs, the 
    stirrup fenders don't have any flexibility, and I feel like I'm sitting on a 
    wide board that doesn't conform to my conformation, much less my horse's.
