[RC] Wintec Pro Stock - Aaron Turnage
Coming in with his winter coat, my 5 yo gelding is
also growing in some white patches behind his withers.
I knew my saddle was a little too tight but thought I
had solved most of the problem with padding. I guess
not. So I'm on the great saddle hunt.
I have to admit that I'm VERY attracted to the
Wintec's with the adjustable gullet and CAIR panels
becuase I know my horse is going to grow and change
even more and I like the idea of a saddle that will
"mold" and change with him. Since I have been riding
in a western-type saddle, I'm looking at the Wintec
Pro Stock (Australian) model since Wintec does not
make a western-type endurance saddle. The Pro Stock
DOES come with both CAIR and the adjustable gullet.
If the Pro Stock doesn't work, I'm also considering
the 2000AP as it feels very secure and the Endurance
model puts me in a "chair" seat. Unfortunately, our
local stores stock all the Wintec models except the
Pro Stock....
Has anyone used this saddle? How are the poleys
positioned? What is the twist like? Does it require
an overgirth? For all Wintec users, do you like the
CAIR and adjustable gullet system? Any complaints?
Has the saddle adapted as your horse has changed?
I also really like some of the treeless saddles, but I
only have about $1,000 to spend and won't actually be
able to afford the saddle until November or so. Until
then we're just doing short rides and I'm going to try
to ride bareback more often (yikes!).
Thanks!
