[QUOTE="Alan, post: 333759, member: 378"] Okay time to sound like CB on this one. The problem is not so much the saddle fit as it is the person fitting the saddle. I think as long as you have the basic right fit for a saddle... full QH bars, ect. it should be fine for a while. Meaning if your horse is acting up and you have the basic right fit on, it's probably the horsemans fault, not the saddle fit. Most newbies act like the horse is a dog and should react the same as a dog to petting and nice talk.... wrong. Horses do like the soft hand and scratching of the wethers, but they are not really too much of a companion animal.... I know some of you people have that "[b]special bond[/b]", but dump some gain on the ground and try to do something with the horse while the grain is on the ground. The problem is that people treat horses like a dog (a predator) instead of a prey animal.... trust and respect is all there is to it. Alan [/QUOTE]
