Re: [RC] I am soooo sick of saddles - Mary Ann Spencer

Sounds a bit drastic... could lead to a huge fight and bad times in divorce.  Check the archives for saddles.  Look at Tucker saddles as they are used by lots for long trail rides.  Some have to go so far as having a saddle special made.  Parelli website has a pad that they say guarntees fit and comfort.  Pricey but so are buying saddles that don't fit.

Subject: [RC] I am soooo sick of saddles

Anyone else on the great elusive good-fitting saddle hunt?  I thought I found a keeper yesterday.  I brought home a Timberline to demo.  I thought it looked like a great fit.  My horse moved really, really well in it.  Went for a short 5 mile jaunt this morning and the sweat marks looks great.  No ouchy spots or rubs.  I just came in from his evening meal and he is so sore, I can't even brush his back!!  ARGHHH. 
 
So tomorrow, I am driving 2 hours one way to pick up and try yet again another saddle.  I am strongly leaning towards sawing the horn off my wife's saddle and making her go find another one!!
