[RC] Anyone use a County Warmblood saddle - Karen CasemierI actually posted as a guest last year, searching for saddle recommendations for my very short-backed Morgan mare.I had made the decision to try a treeless saddle on her - and then I went and broke my neck in a freak riding accident! I'm hoping to get back in the saddle in a couple months, but I think I'm going to want some extra security in the saddle. So, no treeless for right now. I sat in a used County Warmblood last week, and loved it. I am short with short legs, and they offer a short flap option, which fits me perfectly. Also, since my accident I have lost about 20 pounds, and now fit comfortably into a 16.5 or 17 inch saddle - I'm hoping a smaller saddle will fit Mazzie better (due to her very short back). I like the gusseted panel and the wide gullet on the County - seems like it would work well for Mazzie (with typical round, broad shoulders and flat back of the Morgan). Just hoping to hear if anyone has used a County for distance riding. I plan on doing a few CTRs this year (if I can get back in the saddle and comfortably condition) and I also do dressage. Thanks!
