treeless saddle
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Cherie, I don't mean the Bearfoot one. That one doesn't seem to have as deep a seat and not as much selection. It is also over a $1000. I am trying to keep the cost of this saddle down and I am looking for a deep seat. The frontier equestrian is a very deep seat. In fact they have a couple of new models that Brad is sending me a picture of. 71/2 inches deep instead of 6. I think 6 is plenty. They also have pummel sizes from 6 to 10 inches. That should eliminate the sores under the pummel that some are experiencing because the pummels are so hard. Should eliminate any pinching which might be the reason a few people have experienced their horse bucking with a treeless saddle. Would love to hear what your friend thinks, when she gets hers.

Re: treeless saddle
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Someone may have already commented about the Bob Marshall. I've had mine for years and done all sorts of riding in it them, with great results. They are comfortable, fit Fjords (and most other horses with the exception of really bony/high withered ones), and stay put. They look normal so can be used in show, etc., without too much notice. I have a western and an endurance model. Brigid PS: I too have the Bob Marshall treeless saddle and it fits my fjord gelding just fine, even with him being chunky. I have also used it on my arab which makes it nice for me. Rondi Tyler. So. Calif. The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw

Moses Lake show
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hey there Ron, Thank you for so strongly stating your loyalty to LibbyRon please put forth your facts and logic regarding the show locations, by e-mail and letter, long before the PNFPG Fall meeting in Yakima Nov. 4.It would be great if members could all get closer to an agreement before the meeting. Ron consider the following: 1. We owe the distant members who find it inconvenient to appear in person on Nov 4 an opportunity to comment by letter or e-mail on facts and figures you intend to put forth.Whatever facts and figures you have should not be held in a stealth manner to only present on November 4 to those who can come. 2. November 4 is to be a festive time with the museum tour and dinner and meeting of old and new Fjord friends. 3. If we wait and have a big debate about show location(s) on Nov 4, that will unnecessarily lengthen the meeting.The Chairman and Treasurer positions are due for re-election.The Fall show committee(s) need to be set up.There are details of our Moses Lake Spring Fling clinic weekend to deal with. 4. Even members who will come on Nov 4 will appreciate a chance to weigh, balance, reflect and scrutinize all points of view well in advance of the meeting. 5. Ron, we are friends and you owe it to the Riddles to allow us to apologize to the membership, very soon, for errors in our proposal, if there are any.

Re: saddle for sale
This message is from: Silja Knoll [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I am looking for a saddle for my wide Fjord. How do you think it fits a Fjord's back? It is extra wide? What color is i? Does it have the CAIR system? I don't really know much about Wintec saddles, just what I have read on their website. But I am currently actively looking for an all purpose saddle.

I have also used it on my arab which makes it nice for me. Hi Rondi- Yeah, it's funny how it can fit such different horses. When my Arab-riding friend was shopping for a saddle, she laughed when I suggested she try mine. She couldn't believe it would fit my big boys and her trim critter. It did, and she ordered one for herself! The custom-ordering really helped her because she is pint-sized and previously always felt like she was wearing someone else's clothes riding in standard size saddles. She got a 14 seat and youth-cut seat jockeys (I think is the word?). Brigid The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw
