Re: [RC] Wide Stonewall Saddle - Glenda R. Snodgrass

Anyone ever had a wide stonewall saddle made?  I used to ride in one, so am 
familiar with the saddle, but not familiar with the seat width and comfort

How would one know what width of a saddle seat is too wide to be comfortable 
for the rider.


I had a wide tree Stonewall saddle and it was uncomfortable for me (knee
and hip pain on long rides, only showed up after 25 miles or so).  I
personally need a narrow twist saddle, and with the Stonewall, the twist
is dependent on the tree.

Next time I have a regular-tree-size horse, I'll definitely get him a
Stonewall.  I loved the saddle otherwise, much enjoyed the used (narrow
tree) one I tried before buying a wide-tree one for my horse.
