Re: A Saddle Fitting Solution

[Robert Ferrand <sadddle@best.com>]

A simple solution may be to just REadjust your saddle for your horses new
measurements. Synergist saddles does have the SADDLETECH GAUGE. I recommend
that you speak with Charles Tota with Euro-American Saddlery in NJ. who
is within an eight hour drive. Charlie has the Saddletech Computer Saddle
Fitting System to check the acutal pressure exerted by your saddle on your
horse. Charlie also the Saddletech Gauge and the Saddletech Stand. Charles
can either readjust your saddle on the spot or if you would like he can
measure your horse and provide those measurements to John Depetra. John
can then adjust his Saddletech Gauge to those measurements and then readjust
your saddle to your horses new shape. No sweat. Fit Happens with Measurement.

I live in the western New York Area and need some serious help with saddle
fitting.

I have a 7 year old arab. I purchased a safddle from John Dipetra. I love the
saddle but my horse has developed a sore back this past year. I have a feeling
it may be that when I purchased the saddle (3 years ago) My horse was not very
fit. This was his second year of endurance and CTR and he has filled out and
muscled up significantly.

He is sore where the back of the saddle rest. The hair in this area is also
thin and looks rubbed out. Not to the skin just shorter, Especially now that
his winter coat is in.

I was using the saddle pad that came with the saddle and switched to a cloud
nine with little if any benefit.

PLEASE SEND ANY ADVICE OR IF YOU KNOW OF SOMEONE WHO DOES SADDLE FITTING
WITHIN 8 HOUR DRIVE I WOULD GLADLY GO TO THEM.
