SADDLE FITTING

["JOHN B. AYERS" <ayers@plainfield.bypass.com>]

At a recent saddle-fitting clinic we learned how to "shim",

using washcloths,  towels,  pad sections and whatever to

get uniform pressure on the horse's back.

 

This an invaluable technique,  as the horse changes at

various times a year,  different stages of conditioning,

and even varies from one side to the other.
