[RC] Saddle - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Debra Fisk Debra.J.Fisk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I need advice...I have a very wide 15 hand Arab no withers. I've been riding in a Frank Baines endurance saddle, have Wintec Pro and a Stuebben Siegfried as well as Passier A/P all are wide. I've tried every pad including sheepskin with these saddles. I am not finding any rubs, however, I am seeing light white hairs starting to come at his withers on both sides. This is a sign to me that the saddle isn't fitting properly. He doesn't seem to mind and doesn't seem bothered in that area either but I seem to think I might need to think about a new saddle with a wider tree. Suggestions on saddles or a remedy. I don't want to go into the season and make this worse. I've looked at lots of saddles so far and prefer some recommendations. I rode this 7 yr old all last season and put lots of miles on him. He will be used for endurance and CTR's in the future so he'll get lots of rides in, therefore, I need a good saddle and he needs to be comfortable. Gladly welcome so comments. ===========================================================REAL endurance is taking your non-horsey family to a ridecamp with you! ~ Heidi Sowards ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ===========================================================
