[RC] Saddles,Saddles,Saddles HELP ME!!!!!!!! - Harrytmdh



OK OK PLEASE Advise me PLEEEESE!!!!

i am driving myself nuts here, but as my kids say "it
wont be a long trip..."  I am sick absolutely sick to
death of my western saddle. Its heavy, i can NOT ride
in it!!! And as every helpful Texan for miles points
out I have my stirrups too short...yeah? thats the
ONLY way i can stay afloat. Having come from NJ to TX
i miss my english saddle... 
I need help here folks. Ginger is a 14.3 Kentucky
Mountain saddle horse. So she gaits. her mama was a
saddlebred, her papa a Rocky Mountain, somehow
registering her as a KMSH. she has high withers also.

My question is I want a decent ENGLISH saddle.I tried
the treeless sportsaddles.. NO. Dont like them either!
I am looking on ebay at used Collegiates and Stubbens.
What do you suggest? or a new wintec? Equi-Bette? THEN
WHAT? do I get a A/P, close contact, will a dressage
work? I dont know what to get! Medium Tree?? We dont
ride everyday and will probably never be any real
competition for you folks, but we do trail ride, and I
would someday like to try Dressage. I dont want an
endurance saddle,not yet.

Please help, Any advice is gratefully Acepted!!! i am
just about bats over this. Ginger is honest and
willing and I dont want to hurt her either. But this
western saddle can not be good for her, cause I HATE
IT!!!

Paula and Ginger
in still wonderfully HOT Texas :)
