Lorraine what a picture! What a day for you Lorraine! I am in florida in my bunny slippers and frosty snowman sleep pants at the moment and it is 27 degrees outside. All my horses but the icelandics have on their hugh hefner robes. I am loading up Gallant Boy and Tivar as soon as it warms up a bit and taking them to the farm GB came from so he can eat grass and hopefully put on weight, and I am gonna ride tivar on the country roads. I wonder tho if its gonna warm up?? we may just have to do hula hoop olympics in the yard. Film at eleven! Janice -- yipie tie yie yo

RE: [IceHorses] Re: scooter
65 degrees and a little breezy. My husband actually went with me. Lorraine That is one beautiful horse, and a beautiful scene. I'm envious of your weather. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[IceHorses] Re: Scooter in his new treeless
> WHAT KIND OF TREELESS IS THAT AGAIN? It is a Barefoot Arizona. I a made sure that it isn't poking him in the flanks like my other western saddle was. It is floppy like Karen said. And it isn't pinching him around the withers. Lorraine

RE: [IceHorses] Re: Scooter in his new treeless
Unfortunately, you can't put the extra-wide gullet plate in it, so it won't work for extra-wide horses. Those Wintec stock saddles are simply too long for a lot of Icelandic's short backs. And I don't know of many Icelandics that can go in a merely "wide" gullet - all I know will just barely fit in an extra-wide, or are off the Wintec scale altogether. I used to like Wintecs, but I've all but given up on them for Icelandics. Karen Thomas, NC -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

He is going to like a western type better and I'm not sure what direction to go. He is going to be an occasional only rider and not very secure in his seat so I need something that will help him. He's about 180 lbs and fairly agile for a 60 yr old - just not a regular rider. > Laree -Hi Laree. I'm not sure what kind of horse he's riding, but if it' not an overly wide horse, you may want to check out a Wintec Australian Stock Saddle with swinging fenders. I am working with a husband and wife right now and just recommended this saddle for the husband (and more importantly, his horse - an arab/welsh mix). The guy needs something secure, but doesn't like a horn. He also will only ride western style. The equisuede material is very grippy. And the saddle is very adjustable to fit a variety of horses. Unfortunately, you can't put the extra-wide gullet plate in it, so it won't work for extra-wide horses. Dawn B.S.
