I have a mare that I am having a heck of a time
with fitting. She is 15.1 and approx 1200 lbs, not fat just a big Morab mare. I
have 2 specialized saddles, one a trailmaster one the english one. Our problem
is she has no withers, they are literally flat, she has a wide back and wide
shoulders. The saddle will creep its way up until it is stopped by her neck. And
this is happening just working in the arena, no hills involved. I use a skito
pad under the saddle. I am using a neoprene dressage girth, neoprene sheath with
the stretchy girth part in the middle. Anybody have suggestions on how to keep
this from sliding? The only thing I have thought of is to start training her to
use a crupper.
