This message is from: Beth German <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I highly recommend Ann Forrest of Equestrian Imports in Sarasota, Florida as a saddle fitter. Although she is in Florida, she travels around the country for saddle fittings. Our barn brings her out once a year to help several of us, as I think she needs enough people ot make a trip worthwhile. (Each year I am reminded that by sitting too much to the left, I push the flocking to the right of the saddle...) She sells a variety of new and used saddles (dressage and other english style) and brings the equipment or custom flocking with her. She will also ship saddles to try and assist with fitting long distance. Her email is equestrianimports.com I bought a used Prestige from her for my fjord. In addition to selling saddles, she will also adjust riders' current saddles -- flocking, etc. The process takes at least an hour or two as she checks the saddle on the horse without the rider, then with the rider at walk, trot, canter, then adjusts, then checks again, etc. It's ! amazing how much more freely the horse will move with a properly fitting saddle!
