[RC] from western saddles to english - Lori Greene
Allright I have to admit this about myself, for
right now I'm a western rider, riding a paint horse, just doing the
recreational trail riding. (only till next year hopefully, fingers tightly
crossed!) Anyway, I've tried an english saddle one time, and a plantation
flat saddle on a gaited horse years ago. Allright folks, I don't know how
your staying in 'em! I felt like I was on a "beanie" on his back or riding
a fence post! That being on flat ground in an arena. So what type of
english saddle would you say a "deep seated western rider" type need to make a
good transfer to for security. There is no way in one single spin or jump
would I be able to stay on, nor would I be able to ride up/down a hill without
holding on to their ears!!!
