treeless saddle

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.  Onna

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.

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.

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.

Warren and Sylvia Riddle, Teddy Bear Fjords, Spokane

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.

Hi all,

I have a Wintec 2000 all-purpose size 17 saddle for sale. It is in fine shape
and will come with stirrup leathers and girth. I am asking $300. US, and will
bring it to Winona if someone wants to pick it up there, or if it has not sold
by then.

I hope to see many of you there.

Cheers - Peg

Hi

Thanks for your interest. It would have done fine on your Fjords, but, 
unfortunately, has sold.


Good luck,
Peg

By any chance would anyone have an extra space in their trailer to haul a
mare from the Southern Pines, N.C. area to Winona?  If so please email me
privately.

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?).
