Great video and great tips. I knew to check the gullet of the saddle but never knew about pulling the pad up to make a gap on the withers. Thank you.

Many Thanks for linking us to your podcast for more on this topic. Sometimes I forget about your podcast series. I need to go there more often for information.

I'm glad I randomly decided to mention that! Sometimes I forget to tell people about the other information I put out there. The podcast is one of my favorite forms of communication...maybe because I can listen while I drive in a car...or ride a horse!

another good job...I feeling down a few weeks ago and decided to re-watch your video with Popcorn, Vaquero, and the Palomino ( who didn't have a name) in mud. It gave a laugh again, thanks for that!! 👍🍁🤠

Thank you so much. This becomes harder with an older horse. Any tips on saddle fitting a 26 year old with a bony back and high withers?

The changes with age do cause challenges. The shape of the tree may need to change (hight of the gullet, etc) and/or you may need to change padding to adjust for back changes. If you want someone to talk specifically to, call Stagecoach West. 800-648-1121 and talk with them. They make my saddles and I have talked about them in my podcasts on tack (find the podcast by searching my name in your podcast player). They have amazing customer service and will answer your questions even if you don't buy anything.

What kind of saddle do you use? Have you tried any of the adjustable western dressage saddles? Schleese or DP saddles? I have 2 paints with very different back shapes and am having trouble with saddle fit pinching through the shoulders. What are your thoughts? What are your thoughts on the different saddle pads? So many orthopedic pads to choose from?
