[RC] saddles - Kathleen A. CrothersI have a horse that has an extremely wide back and withers. I also had trouble finding a saddle for him but luckily already owned a Bob Marshall. I found it slipped a lot on him until I started double rigging it with a cross your heart girth. This is an X like girth. That made all the difference in the world in keeping the saddle stable and even worked well with my other horse I was having girth rubbing issues with. OF used to sell them and I used one years ago on my OF saddle. Now you can get the girth from Stablegear Tack www.ciwtrailers.com. They are expensive but well worth the cost. I've been using the Bob Marshall on my endurance horses for years now and am satisfied with it. I did have to go to a good skito pad with the laminated foam for my one horse. I've tried other saddles but have always gone back to the BM. Good luck with the saddle hunt.
